Freedom è una canzone scritta e registrata da Paul McCartney in risposta agli attacchi dell'11 Settembre del 2001.
McCartney era a New York al momento degli attacchi, e ha visto in diretta la distruzione, mentre seduto in un aereo, che era parcheggiato sulla pista di New York John F. Kennedy.
Fortemente colpito dalla tragedia e determinato a reagire, compose Freedom (la quale semplicità richiama la canzone di John Lennon Give Peace A Chance) aiutò a organizzare il Concerto per New York City, uno show con grandi artisti di fama internazionale, tenutosi al Madison Square Garden il 20 ottobre, dove Freedom venne eseguita davanti a un pubblico molto partecipe.
McCartney disse che questi attacchi lo colpirono emotivamente, e nella canzone il narratore dichiara libertà, ovvero il diritto di essere libero che ci è stato dato da Dio e bisogna lottare per questo grande dono.
