Freedom Summer |
| Welcome to freedom summer |
| Time is liberty |
| Verse 1: |
| Back when Florence meant Alabama not Italy |
| Back when Hunstville wasn’t really too into me |
| Back when ran the streets them fleeces was up my sleeves |
| My jeans they kept the crease you know I was a beast |
| Ridin' with and brother capris |
| We pull up on Kendrick I know his mama would cook a feast to say the least |
| We had a place for our official sacrificial beliefs |
| (Skipping school with them freaks) |
| Tell it true my mama wouldn’t let me get braids |
| She didn’t want me stereotyped my last day of tenth grade |
| Back when an IG page couldn’t put you on stage |
| Back before said he a pussy you find a twenty man that shit just had me amazed |
| Back when doing dirt meant at least somebody was getting paid |
| Nowadays these niggas doing dirt just for likes on their page, man is this a |
| phase? |
| Back when used to have me in the projects for days, underage and smoking weed |
| blazed |
| Before Tip and Jeezy was let out their cage, man we was Outkast all day |
| Mike Jones, Paul Wall, 8Ball, MJB, BIG, Snoop Dogg, Dre (Pac) |
| Before anyone said I was a thought |
| Before rock, before we ever motorbike we |
| Before they could snatch it on |
| Before they would classify a classic album the day after |
| Before Bush had national disaster and |
| Television had Kanye giving him backlash for the black African mishappening |
| Before skinny jeans was happening |
| Before Obama picked the cabinet |
| Before 100K followers was deemed adequate |
| Before interest was adamant |
| These days couldn’t fathom it |
| These days rappers lack talent, passion and uh, good management |
| Doing a balancing act on mannequins |
| Street guide, hamburger sandwiches, late night, packaging cannabis, |
| boy scrambling can’t come fast enough |
| Second chances don’t come that first one don’t pass it up |
| Talking back before I knew an hourglass can move fast as fuck |
| I was legit sitting in my room thinking life wasn’t adding up |
| Would I be young forever, would I die standing up |
| (Keep on living young nigga keep on living) |
| The only cure for the struggle is just the hustle |
| Just left the coldest winter please welcome to freedom summer |
| We free of pain, pride and depression, self esteem and oppression |
| Free of wack rappers disrespecting the legends |
| Free of ads in the mentions |
| Free of fake news, free of them tiki-torch alt right shit-faced bastards |
| Free of being scared of the rapture |
| If you ain’t right with God you better get right |
| We watching out for midnight, that’s 12 |
| And we didn’t even do nothing wrong and that’s what’s wrong |
| We freeing ourselves and that won’t take long |
| Be yourself, love yourself, embrace the O. G's |
| Respect the CEO to the manager to security to the janitor |
| One love, easy |
| Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom |
| Outro |
| This Freedom Summer, want to welcome y’all |
| Time is liberty |
