Lyrics
We want freedom
(Just want a little freedom)
We want love and understanding
(A little love, little understanding)
Freedom Freedom Freedom
Black AR-15, white manifesto
Eyes on the flag with his hand on the metal
Bout to let that thing sing a clip acapello
Black bodies aimed, cocked back, then it let go
Empty out the barrel, then leave peacefully
And go eat at Cracker Barrel
The media immediately blame it on his mental
Maybe he get peacefully arrested nice and gentle
Then take him through the Burger King drive-thru window
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What's common is the consequences inconsequential
When supremacy is simple
Underneath it all is tainted roots
So strange fruit is not coincidental
How many times we've seen it?
How many bodies the count is increasing?
By the time that you find out you're grieving
The cycle's repeating
This is American pie
This is the part where we barely surprised
This is the part where we scared to just drive
Sick of the coffins and burying lives
This type of loss it can wear on your mind, wear on your soul
Where do we go? How do we cope? When somebody's plotting their shots?
While we shopping at grocery stores
We want freedom
Freedom, that's all we need
We want love and
We want freedom
Freedom, that's all we need
We want love and
Freedom, that's all we need
Heart broken, mouth cussin'
Eyes water, no justice
Scary movie, run it back
These days, replays
When you black,
black, black, black
When you black, black, body
That's Godly,
heart gold Skin, coffee,
trauma, heavy God got me
Black, black, black, black, black
Skin, coffee, God got me
Black, black, black, black, black
Skin, coffee, God got me
Hold up, hold up, hold up
Hold up, hold up, hold up
Hold up, hold up, hold up
