"Breaking Free" is one of the hit singles from the movie High School Musical. On the movie soundtrack, the song also appears under "Breaking Free". The song is sung in the movie by Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez. This song has many versions to it as well. In the "High School Musical Around the World" version, music videos were shown of "Breaking Free" in many different nationalities.
This is the climax song in the movie and the song for Troy and Gabriella's final callback. This song takes place on stage in front of the entire student body. At first, Gabriella has stage fright. Then Troy tells her to remember "like kindergarten". They do an amazing performance and land the roles of Arnold and Minnie, to the disdain of Sharpay and Ryan.
Lyrics[]
Troy:
We’re soarin’, flyin’
There’s not a star in heaven
That we can’t reach
Gabriella:
If we’re trying
So we’re breaking free
Troy:
You know the world can see us
In a way that’s different than who we are
Gabriella:
Creating space between us
‘Til we’re separate hearts
Both:
But your faith it gives me strength
Strength to believe
Chorus #1
Troy:
We’re breakin’ free
Gabriella:
We’re soarin’
Troy:
Flyin’
Both:
There’s not a star in heaven
That we can’t reach
Troy:
If we’re trying
Both:
Yeah, we’re breaking free
Troy:
Oh, we’re breakin’ free
Gabriella:
Ohhhh
Troy:
Can you feel it building
Like a wave the ocean just can’t control
Gabriella:
Connected by a feeling
Ohhh, in our very souls
Both:
Rising ‘til it lifts us up
So every one can see
Chorus #2
Troy: We’re breakin’ free
Gabriella: We’re soarin’
Troy: Flyin’
Both:
There’s not a star in heaven
That we can’t reach
Troy:
If we’re trying
Yeah we’re breaking free
Gabriella:
Ohhhh runnin’
Troy:
Climbin’
To get to that place
Both:
To be all that we can be
Troy:
Now’s the time
Both:
So we’re breaking free
Troy:
We’re breaking free
Gabriella:
Ohhh , yeah
Troy:
More than hope
More than faith
Gabriella:
This is true
This is fate
And together
Both:
We see it comin’
Troy:
More than you
More than me
Gabriella:
Not a want, but a need
Both:
Both of us breakin’ free
Chorus #3
Gabriella: Soarin’
Troy: Flyin’
Both:
There’s not a star in heaven
That we can’t reach
If we’re trying
Troy: Yeah we’re breaking free
Gabriella:
Breaking free
Were runnin’
Troy:
Ohhhh, climbin’
Both:
To get to the place
To be all that we can be
Now’s the time
Troy: Now’s the time
Gabriella: So we’re breaking free
Troy: Ohhh, we’re breaking free
Gabriella: Ohhhh
Both:
You know the world can see us
In a way that’s different than who we are
