Freedom
Lyrics
(Freedom) This is my only escape but I make
And I know y'all can relate
(Freedom) This is my only way
Out of this maze
And all of these problems I face
(Freedom) This is my fate, my love, and my
The only thing I can believe in
(Freedom) This music is all I
Have to give to live
And this is the path to my freedom
Before the Snowgoons squad was build
Before better luck was revealed
Before getting props in the field
From my productions with Bill
Before I tore off with some promotors
Performances and posters
Before touring with La Coka
Before the various travels
Before my work with paz and the Pharaohs
I only had frustrations that I
Didn't manage to channel
A rascal who looked for ways
To escape from the lunacy
With great opportunity but
Impatiently usually
Too young and troubled, an obvious menace
I invited problems though I had
To fk off grimace
Society's expectations left more
Room for insanity life was never met with
Horseshoes or rabbit feet
Then my brother bumped a tape with Run-DMC
My thoughts regained speed
My tongue became free
Bought a Public Enemy record and
Instantly wrote a rap
Felt it would take a whole nation
Of millions to hold me back
(Freedom) This is my only escape but I make
And I know y'all can relate
(Freedom) This is my only way
Out of this maze
And all of these problems I face
(Freedom) This is my fate, my love, and my
The only thing I can believe in
(Freedom) This music is all I
Have to give to live
And this is the path to my freedom
I used to put my headphones
On and image a life
Better than the one that I had
'cause I was having to fight
Constantly within the darkness tryna
Stand in the light
But all that shit just disappeared when
I got handed the mic
I used to sit in my room and play my guitar
Making mixtapes on cassette
Who knew I'd make it this far
Listening to everything from Nas
To Slayer and i was like every other kid but
Now they say I'm a star
I used to run around the
Town painting my name
Looking for some recognition in the
Taste of the fame
Just a poor kid numb, my face in the rain
They gave me shelter from the pain
That runs through my veins
I used to second guess the
Work that I would create
Feel like the world is on my
Shoulders and I carry the weight
And now I do it for the fans
'cause they say they relate
Music is my therapy, this is
My way to escape, yeah
(Freedom) This is my only escape but I make
And I know y'all can relate
(Freedom) This is my only way
Out of this maze
And all of these problems I face
(Freedom) This is my fate, my love, and my
The only thing I can believe in
(Freedom) This music is all I
Have to give to live
And this is the path to my freedom
(Freedom) This is my only escape but I make
And I know y'all can relate
(Freedom) This is my only way
Out of this maze
And all of these problems I face
(Freedom) This is my fate, my love, and my
The only thing I can believe in
(Freedom) This music is all I
Have to give to live
And this is the path to my freedom
