Liberty Walk Lyrics

[Intro]
Don't live a lie
This is your one life, oh
Don't live it like you won't get lost

Just walk, just walk

[Interlude]
It's a liberty walk, it's a liberty walk
It's a liberty, liberty, liberty
It's a liberty walk, it's a liberty walk
It's a liberty, liberty, liberty

[Verse 1]
Here's to all the ones tryna hold you back
Tryna make you feel like you're less than that
Giving nothing more better than to make you crack
But really just trying to push your dreams off track
And you know in the end, it'll be okay
'Cause all that really matters are the steps you take
And everything else falls into place
There's no price to pay, I say

[Pre-Chorus]
We're alright (Alright)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
We gonna get it
When we live it, live it, oh
We're alright (Alright)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
We gonna get it
When we live it, walk, walk
[Chorus]
It's a liberty walk, walk
Say goodbye to the people who tied you up
It's a liberty walk, walk
Feeling your heart again, breathing new oxygen
It's a liberty walk, walk
Free yourself, slam the door, not a prisoner anymore
Liberty, liberty, li-li-liberty, liberty, li-li
It's a liberty walk, walk, walk


[Post-Chorus]
Don't stop
Keep on walking it, and
Don't stop
Keep on talking sh—
Don't stop
Keep on walking it
Walk, walk, walk, walk

[Verse 2]
Don't be afraid to make a move
It won't hurt you just do
What you were born to do
And everything works out right
Don't listen to all the people who hate
'Cause all they do is help make your mistakes for ya
Well, they don't own ya
I just told ya
[Pre-Chorus]
We're alright (Alright)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
We gonna get it
When we live it, live it, oh
We're alright (Alright)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
We gonna get it
When we live it, walk, walk

[Chorus]
It's a liberty walk, walk
Say goodbye to the people who tied you up
It's a liberty walk, walk
Feeling your heart again, breathing new oxygen
It's a liberty walk, walk
Free yourself, slam the door, not a prisoner anymore
Liberty, liberty, li-li-liberty, liberty, li-li
It's a liberty walk, walk, walk


[Post-Chorus]
Don't stop
Keep on walking it
Don't stop (Just walk this way)
Keep on talking sh—
Don't stop
Keep on walking it
Don't like, don't like, don't like, don't like
[Bridge]
Don't like what you do (Walk)
Don't take the abuse (Walk)
Move to the truth (Walk)
People, c'mon, that means you (Walk)

[Chorus]
It's a liberty walk, walk
Say goodbye to the people who tied you up
It's a liberty walk, walk
Feeling your heart again, breathing new oxygen
It's a liberty walk, walk
Free yourself, slam the door, not a prisoner anymore
Liberty, liberty, li-li-liberty, liberty, li-li
It's a liberty walk, walk, walk


[Post-Chorus]
Don't stop
Keep on walking it
Don't stop
Keep on talking sh—
Don't stop
Keep on walking it
Walk, walk, walk, walk
Don't stop
Keep on walking it
Don't stop
Keep on talking sh—
Don't stop
Keep on walking it
Walk, walk, walk, walk

What did Miley Cyrus say about "Liberty Walk"?
Genius Answer

I wrote it for women that feel like they’re stuck in abusive relationships, but it’s a dance song. So you think that must be kind of a sad ballad, but it’s a party song. It’s about breaking free.
