independence day - gatson lyrics
[intro: singer]
freedom
[verse 1: gatson]
today’s the fourth of july, had to write a song
they outside popping firecrackers, i’m at home
independence mean freedom, no longer controlled
so how you celebrating, n*gga, when we still at war?
police shoot us down now, in broad day
no matter young or old, [?] was fifteen
no justice, no peace, we protest in the streets
history had a way of repeating itself, don’t it?
[bridge: gatson]
do you wanna be free? do you believe in what they can’t see?
look, tell ’em
i just wanna be free, why won’t this world take these chains off me?
look, tell ’em
they view me as the enemy, and all i wanna do is be free
look
they build jails to chain me, it’s just a new form of slavery
look
[verse 2: gatson]
i wanna free my n*ggas from behind those gates
i’m tryna move my momma to a bigger place
my girl been waiting patiently for a ring
and i’ve been focussed this year on really chasing my dreams
but this ain’t even a dream no more
and i’ve been up all night, i don’t even sleep no more
this is my reality, i’m tryna make my momma proud of me
i could’ve been on if i rapped about sh*t that i never seen
or that i never done, but you know how that goes
everybody got a story, you choose how it’s told
i wanna free your mind, i wanna help you grow
and if you don’t chase your dreams, you will never know
what you could’ve done or if it would’ve worked
your dream could be worth some mills if you put in work
we’re gonna work then, you gotta know your worth
you can break free, but you gotta work
change is hard work, we all know that
history repeats itself if we fall in that trap
everybody got a purpose, and that’s why i rap
industry rappers will tell you, you should be proud to be black
bet, i will, i will ’cause my heart is made of steel
and my soul will not be k!lled, therefore i just keep it real
i’m as real as it get, i know everybody say that
but look into they catalog, they ain’t rapping like this
[chorus: gatson, singer, gatson & singer]
freedom
what’s love, what’s love?
what’s hate, what’s hate?
what’s pain, what’s great?
freedom
what’s love, what’s love?
what’s hate, what’s hate?
what’s pain, what’s great?
i look up to the sky and i pray
one day, one day
one day
one day, one day
we’ll be okay, one day
yeah
one day, one day
one day, we’ll be okay
one day, yeah
[verse 2: jzac]
okay, okay, i know i’m far from mr. perfect
but everytime i speak, my words get misinterpret
if i hurt your feelings, sorry, it was inadvertent
the nevil in me saying, “she deserved it”
sh*t, i think i need to drink less, think i need to think more
saying all of this as my drink’s poured
guessing what i’m doing’s kinda counterintuitive
‘stead of counting blessngs, i’ve been counting on stupid sh*t
learning that the world don’t play fair, universe don’t play fair
all this stressing out give the young man grey hair
don’t know where i’m praying, they told me, “look above”
don’t know who i’m praying to, but i’ma pray for love
people taking lives, then they take their hands
put ’em both together and that wipe away their sins
only thing i know is that i’m fighting ’til the end
tryna make it right before i’m gone into the wind, so i
think it over, don’t overthink it
all the doubts i’m having just seem so convincing
they’re so convincing, that’s hopeless thinking
i gotta shake it off so i can grow the vision
think it over, don’t overthink it
all the doubts you having just seem so convincing
they’re so convincing, that’s hopeless thinking
you gotta shake it off so you can grow the vision
[chorus: gatson, singer, gatson & singer]
freedom
what’s love, what’s love?
what’s hate, what’s hate?
what’s pain, what’s great?
freedom
what’s love, what’s love?
what’s hate, what’s hate?
what’s pain, what’s great?
i look up to the sky and i pray
one day, one day
one day
one day, one day
we’ll be okay, one day
yeah
one day, one day
one day, we’ll be okay
one day, yeah
[outro: gatson, singer]
freedom
one day, one day
we’ll be okay
