Freedom |
I was told that a life has no price, you see |
But the hate in your eyes put a price on me |
If the natives were slain for your liberty |
Please explain what you mean by «The Land of the Free» |
Oh say can you see |
But can you really see? |
What does freedom really mean? |
'Cause what I’ve been sold, ain’t what I believe |
Maybe freedom ain’t for me |
'Cause what I’ve been shown, ain’t what I can see |
Uh |
Been darker days since election day (election day) |
The rose colors seem to fade away (fade away) |
The white sheet’s coming out to play |
This is backwards oh |
'63 I thought the chains were broken and released |
But what about all my brothers in penitentiaries |
We’ll be floatin' in oceans before we notice |
We’re headed for disaster |
Oh say can you see |
But can you really see? |
What does freedom really mean? |
'Cause what I’ve been sold, ain’t what I believe |
Maybe freedom ain’t for me |
'Cause what I’ve been shown, ain’t what I can see |
We’ve got |
One nation |
Under God |
Indivisible |
It will be washed away |
If we’re complacent (if we’re complacent) |
And divided (And divided) |
If we’re invisible |
We have to ask ourselves |
What does freedom mean to me? |
Is what I’ve been sold what I believe? |
Maybe freedom ain’t for me |
'Cause what I’ve been shown, ain’t what I can see |
(Our brothers are bleeding, sisters are weepin' oh) |
Maybe freedom ain’t for me (Don't you want better) |
'Cause what I’ve been shown (I know we want better) |
Ain’t what I can see (whoa) |
It ain’t what I can see (whoa) |
It ain’t what I can see |
It ain’t what I can see |
