Lyrics So Free - Maverick Sabre

So Free

We can be so free
Why’s it been so serious
We can be so free
Why’s it been so serious
Little kids with big sticks in projects
Prison systems inflict the poorest
Innocents they ain’t changed the laws yet
It’s criminal to engage with force yet wars are so lawless
Got to be cautious
Policemen will cuff you so thoughtless
Whether it be the colour your skin or the number of your trim
It’s never from what’s within, together we’re struggling
Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
All of my tears are for you
And I don’t know why, don’t know why
No one hears the truth
We can be so free
Why’s it been so serious
We can be so free
Why’s it been so serious
Lonely single mother trying to make it on her own
Nobody to love her or to put her on a throne
So she grows, beautiful queen, you’ll never know
How much that I am sorry for the men that came before
Beat up and raped, treat like a slave
He lost his way and you kept it brave
Give me your pain and we can both fly away
I don’t want to see us so divided
I don’t want to deal with all the violence
How we gonna heal if we keep silent?
Been going on for years through empires and kings
They don’t wanna teach us to be righteous
In school they’re never teachin' us the right things
Is the power worth the hate that’s in your eyes, kid
I hope this place will change before I’m in the grave
Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
All of my tears are for you
And I don’t know why, don’t know why
No one hears the truth
We can be so free
Why’s it been so serious
We can be so free
Why’s it been so serious
We can be so free (We can be, we can be)
Why’s it been so serious (Why has it been so serious)
We can be so free (We can be, we can be)
Why’s it been so serious (Why has it been so serious)
