David Gans
I’m a sovereign soul
And my freedom is something I mean to enjoy
I’m a sovereign soul
My time and attention are mine to deploy
I’m a sovereign soul
And I was not created by anyone’s God
So I won’t go inferno for breaking his laws
I’m a sovereign soul
And I speak for myself and I do as I please
And I care for my neighbor come famine or freeze
I’m a sovereign soul
I’m a sovereign soul
I know who my friends are and what’s worth the time
And I won’t kiss your ass unless you’re kissing mine
I’m a sovereign soul
I thought I was dead but I put down the knife
I’ve made a fine home with my partner in life
She’s a sovereign soul
I’m a sovereign soul
We are sovereign souls
I’m a sovereign soul
And I do what I can to make sense of it all
And I keep myself ready to answer the call
I’m a sovereign soul
And I own my own words and I think for myself
And there’s more to this life than the hoarding of wealth
I’m a sovereign soul
And I honor my word and I pay off my debts
And I tell you my story so no one forgets
I’m a sovereign soul
We are sovereign souls
You are a sovereign soul
