	Story Behind the Song This song began with the lyrics, which were written by the extraordinary Rose Ella Jones, who is also the sister of Motown Legend Smokey Robinson. She is also the author of Robinson's "Quiet Storm". Jones was inspired to write the song after reading Tina Turner's autobiography and reflecting upon her own life. She presented the lyrics to Gerard, who immediately added the melody and music to complete the marriage definitely made in Heaven. Lyrics Free to be me, no more cryin' Free to feel without denyin' Only up, no more down No more goin' 'round facin' the ground No more misery, no more pain No more livin' in the purple reign Of tears and fears that grip the spine Oh at last I'm free to shine Giving in to free expression Being the woman that I am Living completely free of depression I am, I am, I am (Back to Refrain) No more chokin' love to enslave me Free to use the will that God gave me No more stealing of my confidence Suddenly life begins to make some sense As all around me beauty begins to unfurl Hello world, can you look at me and see That I am totally (Back to Refrain)
