“Freedom”
Jurassic
5, 2002
CHALI
Seldom
traveled by the multitude
The
devil’s gavel has a couple fooled
My
culture’s screwed
Cuz this
word is misconstrued
Small
countries exempt from food
Cuz
leaders have different views
You
choose
AKIL
What
mean the world to me is being free
Live and
let live and just let it be
(Let it
be)
Love
peace and harmony
One
universal family
One god,
one aim, & one destiny
MARC 7
O yea?
Imagine
life without a choice at all
Given a
vote without a voice at all
These be
the problems that we face
I’m
talkin’ poverty and race
But no
matter what the case we gotta
CHORUS
Hold on
to this feeling
FREEDOM
FREEDOM
Hold on
to this feeling
FREEDOM
FREEDOM
SOUP
I’m the
first candidate to hate
Had to
beat on the drum to communicate
For what
was to come to those who were hung
They
would decapitate the tongue
If you
would mention the word
FREEDOM
CHALI
Got
people screamin’ free Mumia Jamal
But 2
out of 3 of y’all will be at the mall
I’m
heated with y’all
The
defeated will fall
Incomplete
& Unsolved
When the
word freedom’s involved
AKIL
My
forefathers hung in trees to be free
Got rid
of slavery but still kept the penitentiary
And new
freedom got a shotgun
And
shells with your name
Release
the hot ones
And let
freedom reign
SOUP
I’m a
former boat prisoner
Hollywood
visitor
Dance
for cats segregated on wax
My color
got me handy
Cap Amos
and Andy
For the
freedom
They
just won’t hand me
CHORUS
MARC 7
Cuz
there’s not a lot of time
Your
heart, body, soul and your mind
It’s so
true it ain’t been heard in so long
That’s
the reason why we name this song
CHORUS
MARC 7
Cuz
there’s not a lot of time
Your
heart, body, soul and your mind
It’s so
true it ain’t been heard in so long
That’s
the reason why we name this song
