freedom - mistah f.a.b. lyrics
[intro]
in light of what’s going on in america today
i just want to ask a couple of questions
what’s freedom
[verse 1]
i got a lot of white friends some rich and some poor
some i grew up in the hood they my people for show
when i look at them naw man i don’t see color
i see my family see my friends see my sisters and brothers
but systematically speaking with a different facade
in a judicial system that where all my people get fried
but three strikes be the same as getting lynched on trees
we pull up in the same car and police pick on me
i guess i’m guilty til i’m innocent never given the benefit
my black skin automatically mean that i did the sh-t
and they don’t need no witnesses and even if you witnessed it
if they want me guilty they’ll find a way to make convictions stick
but if you just look back
in america at political prisoners like the prat and go look three
asada and monia they want you locked they uh never free ya
[hook]
whats freedom
something that a black man in america never feels
freedom
they give us all freedom of speech but say the wrong thing you getting k!lled freedom
our ancestors sang i want to be free free
freedom
and as long as we’ve been the slaves we’ll never be free
[verse 2]
free as the water in my aquarium horoscope
what is freedom black man
is that rhetorical we don’t like when neo had to go meet with the oracle
as the world turn music is louder that oracle
all these voices in my head of people that’s dead
i could write a book impose a letters all from the feds
or the state and i hate the fact they never be back
white privilege is real you could never be black
no matter how hard you sag and you use the word n-gga
you never understand the hardships of me and my n-ggas
imagine me and copefield as a k!ller and crook
they start no evidence all just how you look
and in my book i speak on the streets that i stay
how they ain’t no different than the streets in l.a
how they ain’t no different than the streets in the a
how police want to k!ll a man and leave him like freddie gray
[hook]
what’s freedom
something that a black man in america never feels
freedom
they give us all freedom of speech but say the wrong thing you getting k!lled freedom
our ancestors sang i want to be free free
freedom
and as long as we’ve been the slaves we’ll never be free
[verse 3]
peace king need ya’ll to use your vision
what’s the difference between a plantation and a prison
what’s the difference between a slave and a inmate
it’s no difference one picking cotton one making license plates
a slave master and a warden a nba owner got his top slave scoring
a nfl owner treat his players like madden on the sticks bro
you see how they did my cousin marshawn lynch though
hate a black man standing for up black people
shouting out real africans to them that was evil
he was just a black man being a real black figure
but they like no matter what man you still a n-gga
they be feeling like you think you tough
a bad boy with some money oh you think you puff
made it out of def jam what you think you russ
laughing at your little money like he think he us
[hook]
freedom
something that a black man in america never feels
freedom
they give us all freedom of speech but say the wrong thing you getting k!lled freedom
our ancestors sang i want to be free free
freedom
and as long as we’ve been the slaves we’ll never be free
freedom
