You need to make a lib/vendor folder. The symfony folder must be under the vendor folder (*/wherever_my_project_is/lib/vendor/symfony*).

The go up two levels (so you can see the lib folder (if you do a ls) and run

php lib/vendor/symfony/data/bin/symfony -V

If everything is ok, that should return the symfony version.

Then you can generate a new project:

php lib/vendor/symfony/data/bin/symfony generate:project PROJECT_NAME

That will create the necessary directory structure and also make the symfony executabile for you (in your project directory). See more here. I recommend reading A Gentle Introduction to symfony tutorial.
