Free People (Explicit)

We are people who've been tried through time

That's right

Rejected by society

Not just black people but people in general

Left to wander deaf dumb and blind

Ya know

We know the depth of darkness ignorance's shame

Uh huh

A people lost without a name

Free

Without a name ohhh what a shame

But now here we are

Yeah this how it started the beginning it was me alone

It's '09 I look around it's me alone

Huh no Love Jones No Nia Long

And my kids still askin are we there yet

Did we make it to the top dad

My bad

We just made it to the middle gettin paid a little

So you know what that means y'all could play a little

But I still gotta work a lot close the locks

N***az see me on the tube they think I'm worth a lot

And if they try to take y'all I'm gonna murk the block

Pull out and squirt the block hurt the block

I don't care if I alert the cops call the S W A T

When I blast bodies drop like Pilates class

Throw on the mask then I palm the glock

If y'all n***az try to hide I'm a find ya a*s

We are people who've been tried through time

Rejected by society

I'm tempted

Left to wander deaf dumb and blind

Know what I mean

We know the depth of darkness ignorance's shame

How I'm supposed to react

A people lost without a name

Uh huh

Without a name ohh what a shame

But now here we are

Here we are face to face we didn't grow with no silver spoons

Hopin to find a strip we can grind on

A connect we can rely on my God

Philly Freezer used to hustle on the block

Listenin to songs on the tape deck before the iPod

Yeah some n***az used to grind hard

While other n***az used to take checks

N***az that grind had it out with the cops

N***az that took checks faced a quick death

They was shootin out 'til not a clip left

Wind up goin out in a box

And I wind up rollin out in a box Porsche

'Lo sport from the shorts to the socks to the shirt

Yeah I'm gonna make this rap thing work watch

We are people

That's right

Who've been tried through time

Trials and tribulations

Rejected by society

Left to wander deaf dumb and blind

Just wakin up

We know the depth of darkness

Goin through your normal day is a trial

Ignorance's shame

It's all a test

A people lost

From God

Without a name

You gotta find yourself

Without a name ohh what a shame

That's right

But now here we are
