Songs about being free

Carlos Santana - Songs of Freedom from his album Freedom

 

Scorpions - Wind of Change

 

It's set up like a deck of cards
They're sendin' us to early graves for all the diamonds
They'll use a pair of clubs to beat the spades

Interpreting "free" somewhat broadly, as in not necessarily a joyous thing...

Baby, We're Free, by Mystic Eyes

 

What a beautiful world this will be
What a glorious time to be free

 

I can't think of any songs about being free. but it would be cool if there were some, particularly southern rock styled ballads with extended dual guitar solos at the end.

 

I Wanna Be Free - Monkees

 

You beat me by 10 mins.

I will say. Bob Marley, "Redemption Song."
