| Yeah I’m a believer, I won’t be beleaguered
|
| I give a damn, no Leave it to Beaver
|
| With the R-E-S-P-E-C-T like Aretha
|
| And if I don’t use my feet then I won’t have that either
|
| Yes we serve, we deserve some peace
|
| And we serve the least versed to reverse
|
| The deep hurt that’s featured
|
| Each turn of the sheet of a learned history
|
| Like Wall Street, the Trail of Tears and the War in the Philippines
|
| And I wash my hands clean like surgeons in emergencies
|
| Median on weed like conjoinment and Glucosamines
|
| Relap the joint and wound the knee
|
| Let’s Deco the Negro
|
| And be like Steve Bico, we’re not hearing a beat
|
| From the projects like and research
|
| We’re jumping in feet-first
|
| Reaction more than knee-jerk
|
| Don’t let his story recur
|
| Swipe like a Visa
|
| A fire doesn’t need a sinkhole
|
| Just the silence of the people
|
| As for me, I’m gonna be free
|
| I’m gonna be free from all of this history
|
| Yeah, me, I’m gonna be free, I’m gonna be free
|
| I rhyme post-post-ironic flows (homo)
|
| I came to fuck shut up, homos
|
| Stonewall, laugh at that, no no
|
| Don’t y’all assume that I’m straight
|
| Cause you don’t know
|
| I’m close to the edge like Bono
|
| Won’t fall victim to the Gordian Knot
|
| Trying to sort again rock mine
|
| For the win
|
| Plot lines are stretched like accordion
|
| To Resurrect, born again, in division
|
| Free from all the history
|
| Beef with salt and misery
|
| Just how it should be for y’all and is for me
|
| That’s the truth, blppppp as bald as
|
| Mr. Clean, spit it like Listerine
|
| 'Till my lips are stinging hot, scalding, blistering
|
| I’m composting primitive thoughts
|
| And prayers what we want most
|
| lock the prison with God’s forgiveness
|
| It’s it a bunch of
|
| Holy ghost, high hopes
|
| Touchdown like Broncos
|
| The song goes on like ponchos
|
| As for me, I’m gonna be free
|
| I’m gonna be free from all of this history
|
| Yeah, me, I’m gonna be free, I’m gonna be free
|
| And if we can start a riot (well what can we really do?)
|
| If we can tear a city down (what can we really do?)
|
| Crush enemies, cause casualties
|
| If we can start a movement
|
| If we can lift a city up
|
| If we can heal the wounded
|
| Feed our families, face history
|
| As for me, I’m gonna be free
|
| I’m gonna be free from all of this history
|
| Yeah, me, I’m gonna be free, I’m gonna be free |
