I Shall Be Released Lyrics by Jack Johnson

Best of Kokua Festival

2012

They say everything can be replaced
They say every distance is not near
So I remember every face
Of every man who put me here
I see my light come shining
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
They say every man who needs protection
They say every man must fall
But I swear I can see my reflection
Some where so high above this wall
I see my light come shining
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
Yondah stands a man in this lonely crowd
A man who swears he's not to blame
All day long I hear him crying out so loud
Crying cause he was framed
And the say I see my light come shining
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
