Give Us Free

HOOK
Give us us free, like Cinqué said…
Or we gon' take it from you faster than you blink I said
Give us us free, like Cinqué said…
Or we gon’ take it from you faster than you think

VERSE 1
We're gettin closer to freedom
But it seems further than ever
Cuz they're still killing our people
It just ain’t feeling no better

We gotta take some revolutionary action
Cuz all this fuckin murdering just gives ‘em satisfaction
We got these racists shooting up our supermarkets and
Our children in the streets treating each other like a target

Thе future's dying at the hands of white suprеmacy
They're raping Mother Earth and push our faces closer just to see
I'm so disgusted by these motherfucking sickos
And now they're getting in the way of codifying Roe?

They gotta go, we gotta get ‘em outta power
Our time is only moving faster, losing by the hour

I'm cruising past the hour of atonement, right to judgement
The end of days outside, it's only right we should discuss it
I'm bodying the Devil. I’m burying his lies
You can call me Hoodie Melo with the focus in my eyes

HOOK
Give us us free, like Cinqué said…
Or we gon’ take it from you faster than you blink I said
Give us us free, like Cinqué said…
Or we gon' take it from you faster than you think

Give us us free, like Cinqué said…
Or we gon’ take it from you faster than you blink I said
Give us us free, like Cinqué said…
Or we gon' take it from you faster than you think

VERSE 2
I wanna see us free, I know I got some more believers
An army full of followers made out of future leaders
My message is selected for the ones who choose to listen
The movers and the shakers are for whom this shit was written

And listen how I'm switchin the rhythm up for the rhyme's sake
That’s for anybody who's tryna say that my mind's late
Our that I'm outdated cuz I'm out here pushing 40
I'm looking mighty fucking good, your lady can't ignore me

Cuz maybe you're just boring, from tuning into that jibber jabber
I'm a better rapper, undefinable like dark matter
And I matter better than you'll fathom or imagine..
Cornell Benjamin back from the dead to slay the dragon

A master of my craft and yes I'm out here gettin better
A student of the game I studied this down to the letter

I'm confidently cocky, but deliberately even
Cuz you might rock with Ellect
But the one you fuck with is Stephen!
