[Intro]
Free
Free
(Yeah)
[Chorus]
Free, baby girl, I’m
Free
[?], when you sang, who’s world is this?
You were lookin’ at me
[?]
Let a real one breathe
Said, we’re gonna live out our dreams
[?] what I won’t be
I’m gon’ be free
[Verse 1]
Uh, yeah
Blood on the flag, what a soldier dies for
Choke with the chain, what a slave’ll fight for
Dollars are the keys to the cuffs on your wrist
But money disappears like it’s all just a trick
Our freedoms, never free, give it meanin’
Adam Goodes did Australian dreamin’
War dance on the earth that we came from
Free thinkers nеver gonna play dumb
Free speech on the mic when I’m blazin’
Comе to the show, show you somethin’ amazin’
But them coppers, they come with their tasers
Guns and they bullets that they’re tryna right our names on
Sniffer dogs at the station
Can’t protest, but they took a phone in your basement
And it’s all for you safety
And if you say it’s insane, they’ll start callin’ you crazy
[Chorus]
Free, baby girl, I’m
Free
[?], when you sang, who’s world is this?
You were lookin’ at me
[?]
Let a real one breathe
Said, we’re gonna live out our dreams
[?] what I won’t be
I’m gon’ be free
I’m gon’ be free, yeah
I’m gon’ be free
I’m gon’ be free, yeah
I’m gon’ be free
I’m gon’ be free, yeah
I’m gon’ be free
I’m gon’ be free, yeah, c’mon
(A-are we there?)
Free
(Oo-oo-ooh)
(A-are we there?)
Free
(Oh, yeah)
[Verse 2]
Yeah
Now they locked me up once
I left the same night, I said
“Fuck you, detectives
See, I know my rights”
When I’m rhymin’, I’m shinin’
Can’t stand in my light
‘Cause I’m ready to die
I’m the last one alive
Who can kick it like Q-Tip
Like Gang Starr, with a full clip
My quest for a classic
These beats drop, bombastic
My music is freedom
The only thing they can’t touch
My freedom is music
Need y’all to turn this shit up
[Chorus]
Free, baby girl, I’m
Free
[?], when you sang, who’s world is this?
You were lookin’ at me
[?]
Let a real one breathe
Said, we’re gonna live out our dreams
[?] what I won’t be
I’m gon’ be free
I’m gon’ be free, yeah
I’m gon’ be free
I’m gon’ be free, yeah
I’m gon’ be free
I’m gon’ be free, yeah
I’m gon’ be free
I’m gon’ be free, yeah, c’mon
(A-are we there?)
Free
(Oo-oo-ooh)
(A-are we there?)
Free
[Verse 3]
Uh
I could never be a prisoner
Say I’m under control ‘cause I’m just a bad listener
Tax man at your back, sayin’ “Stick ‘em up”
Cash lands in the hands of a minister
It’s a system, and it’s workin’
For the rich and we the servants
Pretty picture, hundred million
Handouts, for the banks, not the children
Are we blind to the fact that we free?
To redefine what it is human can be?
Yeah, I’ve got the power like DMC
To run this rap shit like HOV
I put the fate on me, and I clear my mind
If I fight for freedom, [?]
Rage against the machine, that’s what you’re in
Only truth gonna set you free, my friend
[Outro]
Free
