Tryna rain, tryna rain on the thunder Tell the storm I'm new I'mma walk, I'mma march on the regular Painting white flags blue
Lord forgive me, I've been running Running blind in truth I'mma rain, I'mma 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! Singin', 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'mma keep running Cause a winner don't quit on themselves
I'mma wade, I'mma wave through the waters Tell the tide, "Don't move" I'mma riot, I'mma riot through your borders Call me bulletproof
Lord forgive me, I've been runnin' Runnin' blind in truth I'mma wade, I'mma wave through your shallow love 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! Singin', 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'mma 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', jump in the aqueducts Fire hydrants and hazardous 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 Stole from me, lied to me, nation 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! Singin', 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'mma 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 cool myself off. I was served lemons, but I made lemonade
