Tryna rain tryna rain on the thunder
Tell the storm I'm new
I'ma walk 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
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 wade 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 running
Running blind in truth
I'ma wade I'ma wade through your shallow
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
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 9 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' jumpin' the aqueducts
Fire hydrants and hazard dust
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
Steal from me lie to me
Nation of 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
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
