I wish I was a cool kid
Eyeglasses on, wind blows, going through my hair
'Worry about nothing
'Saying the first thing
That's coming to my head
I wish i knew skating
I wish I knew painting
I wish I mastered anything
At all
Truth is: I know no-nothing
I just copy what I hear, what's going is to fit in
I just wanna be in
So call me to those parties
People tell me secrets
Parties in the condos
Missing those last metros
Don't wanna be a star
I don't wanna be apart
Just wanna get so far away
From here
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
Expectations on me, no matter what (yeah)
Enough on the daily, because I'm black (yeah)
Riding through the city, I'm on my bike (yeah)
Listening to some music, hurting my neck (yeah)
I'm bouncin' bouncin' bouncin' around yeah
And I get so tired sometimes I'm nowhere to be found
I'm flexin' on group chats, I really don't know what to say
And I get real busy sometimes yeah it's true that I fade
But reach me with real purpose
I promise I'll make efforts
Deeper conversations
Back into the basics
I think that's what I want
I wanna raise the bar
I wanna get so far away
From here
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
