Tryna rain, tryna rain on the thunder Tell the storm I’m new I’m a wall, come and march on the regular Painting white flags blue
Lord forgive me, I’ve been running Running blind in truth I’ma rain, I’ma rain on this bitter love Tell the sweet I’m new
I’m telling these tears, go and fall away, fall away May the last one burn into flames
Freedom Freedom I can’t move Freedom, cut me loose Singin’, freedom Freedom Where are you? ‘Cause I need freedom, too I break chains all by myself Won’t let my freedom rot in hell Hey! I’ma keep running ‘Cause a winner don’t quit on themselves
I’ma wade, I’ma wave through the waters Tell the tide, “Don’t move” I’ma riot, I’ma riot through your borders Call me bulletproof
Lord forgive me, I’ve been runnin’ Runnin’ blind in truth I’ma wade, I’ma wave through your shallow love Tell the deep I’m new
I’m telling these tears, go and fall away, fall away May the last one burn into flames
Freedom Freedom I can’t move Freedom, cut me loose Singin’, freedom Freedom Where are you? ‘Cause I need freedom, too I break chains all by myself Won’t let my freedom rot in hell Hey! I’ma keep running ‘Cause a winner don’t quit on themselves
Ten Hail Marys, I meditate for practice Channel nine news tell me I’m movin’ backwards Eight blocks left, death is around the corner Seven misleadin’ statements ’bout my persona Six headlights wavin’ in my direction Five-o askin’ me what’s in my possession Yeah I keep runnin’, jump in the aqueducts Fire hydrants and hazardous Smoke alarms on the back of us But mama don’t cry for me, ride for me Try for me, live for me Breathe for me, sing for me Honestly guidin’ me I could be more than I gotta be Stole from me, lied to me, nation hypocrisy Code on me, drive on me Wicked, my spirit inspired me Like yeah, open correctional gates in higher desert Yeah, open our mind as we cast away oppression Yeah, open the streets and watch our beliefs And when they carve my name inside the concrete I pray it forever reads
Freedom Freedom I can’t move Freedom, cut me loose Singin’, freedom! Freedom! Where are you? ‘Cause I need freedom, too I break chains all by myself Won’t let my freedom rot in hell Hey! I’ma keep running ‘Cause a winner don’t quit on themselves
What you want from me? Is it truth you seek? Oh, Father, can you hear me? What you want from me? Is it truth you seek? Oh, Father, can you hear me? Hear me out
“I had my ups and downs But I always find the inner strength to pull myself up I was served lemons, but I made lemonade”
