Verse 1: Rozotadi
I think I get it
Want independence
Bebop for my freedom
Under a ceiling
Gave us oppression
Gave me a sentence
If I just take it
Stay stuck in the matrix
If this really is the truth
I'm not the type to trip about it
I been asking questions that
My professors say might start a riot
They don't get it
They don't feel it
Wonderin' what is real
Cause I can't accept this bullshit
Not knowing how to feel
Same time, scared I might lose my life
Each day feeling like a roll of dice
Gotta roll it right -
Pre-Chorus 1: Rozotadi
Had to clock in hours
Tryna live it honest
Tirеd of moving
(Lowkey)
Lying to our faces
Aiming at our heads
Shеd a lotta tears
When the gun goes
Chorus 1: Rozotadi
SHOOT
Bang, laying lifeless
BLOOD covered youth
Round here
NO longer standing idle
DO what it takes to fight em
SHOOT
Bang, laying lifeless
BLOOD covered youth
Round here
NO longer standing idle
DO what it takes to be free
To be free
To be free
You say you want to be free
Be free
Be free
Be free
You say you want to be free
Verse 2: Rozotadi
Not a slave just a model on this auction block of life
Would the chains or the bottles make me feel alive tonight
Do I run from myself or is it better off to fight
Would your love or your body make me feel alive tonight
IMMA SHOOT
Breakin thru
Ops is fitted navy blue
Baby on this side
Lowkey moves
Maybe of this side
We might lose
Huh
Fighting the opposition
When they set us up
Whizzing by, catching a stray
Gotta bandage up
Renovate the neighborhood
Finna ante up
Battlefield in the backyard
They can’t handle us
I ain’t the weird kid no mo
I am that real nigga going gold
I ain’t a field nigga on a boat
I am the captain now, call me goat
I ain’t the weird kid no mo
I am that real nigga goong gold
I ain’t a field nigga on a boat
I am the captain now, call me goat
Bighead!
"Institutions only have legitimacy if we give it to them"
Verse 3: Rozotadi
To tell myself a lie
I chose to stay within the cave
Can't even see myself
I need the ultra-violet rays
Finally independent
But my mama find a way
To support me
In a world that ain't for me
And the gun say
Chorus 2: Rozotadi
SHOOT
Bang, laying lifeless
BLOOD covered youth
Round here
NO longer standing idle
DO what it takes to fight em
SHOOT
Bang, laying lifeless
BLOOD covered youth
Round here
NO longer standing idle
DO what it takes to be free
To be free
To be free
You say you want to be free
Be free
Be free
Be free
You say you want to be free
