freedom ain't free - brother ali lyrics
(hook)
ain’t no where to run to
there ain’t nothing here for free
(verse 1)
if i don’t like my life i gut it and rebuild it
f-ck it, keep nothing but god and my children
i kill the devil wherever he resides
even if he hiding in me he got to die
i killed little jason he was only fifteen
sewed his good traits together, made ali
filled his lungs with the koran until he breathe
let him walk but kept him on a short leash
here he stand now, seventeen year old man-child
ain’t ask n-body for a muh-f-ckin’ hand out
he trying to carry heaven on his back
jumped the broom with a stranger, he ain’t never look back
what he know about how the world spin?
bless his heart he a virgin, never even had a girlfriend
want to be a man so bad that he can taste it
his family fell apart and he’s tryin’ to replace it
you’ll find in him a heart that is second to none
but i know old soul that his lessons ain’t done so
i stand willing to kill him again
if to grow he got to shed his skin then let it be done
(chorus/hook)
ain’t no where to run to
there ain’t nothing here for free
see what i see and know that freedom ain’t free lord
ain’t no where to run to
there ain’t nothing here for free
you’ll see what i see and know that freedom ain’t free
(verse 2)
one half of all the two-leggeds on the scene are too timid to dream
’cause failure is far too depressing it would seem
so they take what’s given
that’s your decision, i just don’t consider that livin’
sh-t, if i’mma die whether or not i try
i might as well let the dice fly
i’m hot knife through b-tter in the night sky
it shouldn’t take a genius to see this hunger in my eye
so i use blood and sweat to b-tter my bread
’cause this cold world couldn’t give a f-ck if i’m fed
i ain’t curled up in my bed
if i don’t set the world ablaze trust it ain’t ’cause of nothing i did
listen, i don’t think god’s obligated to touch you
if your -ss would rather live in sh-t than work a shovel
i refuse to let the sun set on me again
’til the end i’m a one man army, friend
(chorus/hook)
ain’t no where to run to
there ain’t nothing here for free
see what i see and know that freedom ain’t free lord
ain’t no where to run to
there ain’t nothing here for free
you’ll see what i see and know that freedom ain’t free
ain’t no where to run to
there ain’t nothing here for free
see what i see and know that freedom ain’t free lord
ain’t no where to run to
there ain’t nothing here for free
