Freedom? - Busta Rhymes

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

Oh, yeah yeah

Ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah

Eye for an eye, knee for a knee

You declared war, but you don’t want peace

You just want shit, and we will not sleep

Blood on your hands, blood on our streets

Oh, our tears in the night, another stolen life

'Cause color is all you see

Tell me, is that free, yeah?

We are not created equal, no

I could give a fuck if I offend a couple people, yo (Tell me, is that free)

What the fuck is you watching us, it’s never in the sequel fo'

Let me wipe these tears, and speak the truth to all my people, oh

The fuck is you doin'?

Where we goin' wrong?

(Ah-ah-ah)

12 year old, but I sing this type of shit up in his songs (Ah-ah-ah)

Gotta pick up his pops and his moms

The youngin' braver than a lot of these niggas songs (Oh-oh)

Watch all of my people that they tryna trample (Ooh)

It’s time to form and get to lead 'em by every example

In the bathroom, you wash your faces with us

You ain’t ready for tradin' places with us (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

My heart hurt bad

And I talk my shit like these my kids, they lookin' for dad (Yeah, yeah)

Energy transfer, kids look at me mad

I still be the source, though it’s hurtin' me bad

Eye for an eye, knee for a knee

You declared war, but you don’t want peace

You just want shit, and we will not sleep

Blood on your hands, blood on our streets

Oh, our tears in the night, another stolen life

'Cause color is all you see

Tell me, is that free, yeah?

Look at all the shit my people been through

The ghetto want my kids to live too

Can’t imagine them parents copin'

In they arms with the breathless body they holdin' (Yeah)

God bless the tear of every mama cryin'

Children leave the house wonderin' if today they dyin'

The nerve to say there’s bigger fish worth fryin'

If you ain’t with us better know we’re riotin' (I believe)

And while you front, you walk about

If we ain’t fightin' for what’s right, then what we talk about?

(Fight on)

And while I fight with all the might, now let me source it out

Inspire folks, become the activist they talk about

A long blessin' for every soul that’s fallen (Mm)

Snoop Dogg and others told me to accept my callin' (Ooh)

Prayin' to Jesus, hangin' on your wall and (Ah-ah)

Black man hopin' to make it home tomorrow mornin'

Eye for an eye, knee for a knee

You declared war, but you don’t want peace

You just want shit, and we will not sleep

Blood on your hands, blood on our streets

Oh, our tears in the night, another stolen life

'Cause color is all you see

Tell me, is that free, yeah?

I wanna know

Do you really believe?

Do really believe that we’re free?

Yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

I wanna know
