Lyrics
Aida was a prisoner when she was growing up
Her parents always punished her for not being what they want
And if she broke the rules - they'd come down even harder
Until my friend Aida - couldn't take it any longer
Chorus: Free Aida - we all said Free Aida Come on and Free Aida - Let Aida go
Kid's in the neighborhood after school would hang around
Aida showed up one-day sayin' she had fallin down
Bruises on her face she couldn't look you in the eye
We all knew the truth but we all lived a lie -
I won't forget the day Aida ran away -- ended up on the street
Where there's another price to pay
Doin' drugs and keepin time just to stay alive
I said ?Keep believing in yourself Aida will survive
Chorus
She just smiled and turned away - no hope in her eyes
Broken promises - bad cards -I realize
She was the fighter we all want to be
When we Free Aida it's freein' you and freein' me
Chorus
(SPOKEN)
Write it on the wall - yell it down the hall
Aida's Free and so are we -Now were standing tall
Write it on the wall - yell it down the hall
Aida's Free and so are we now were standin' STANDIN FREE
