Lyrics
Until the day, I no longer be
There's no future I see
Faith has drawn doom's final curtain on, on me
And the chains that bind my heart will never let me be free
Yeah, I guess, this what it feels like
To really see what's going on around you
I guess, this what it feels like
To finally open your eyes and look around
I woke up with a plan, a vision to expand
My life outside a room, all I needed was a grand
My brother showed me all I needed was some grams
By 18 I was caught up in these scams
I never thought when I was riding in that van
Selling cookies door to door for that chick Barbara Ann
That I would step foot on many foreign lands
Lisbon sands, geisha women in Japan
And all this cause some words I wrote
Wrote down on that page and them words you quote
Now I'm standing on stage and my thank you note
Is to pour every ounce that I got in this music
What's the perception homie, they don't really know me
I see them smiling all the time but I know they phony
This is me in a whole new light
Been going left so long that it gotta be right
I just wanna be free
At the end of the day I can only be me
Open up your eyes and maybe you'll see
That I am who I'm dying to be, I wanna be free
I just wanna be free
At the end of the day I can only be me
Open up your eyes and maybe you'll see
That I am who I'm dying to be, I wanna be
I woke up with a plan, a vision to expand
To transcend rap, become a better man
I know these kids they listen to what we saying
It's time to talk about lengthening life spans
It's time we talk about what crime really brings
Yeah for the moment you can have nice things
But when I'm rich is a mighty fine dream
Til you find yourself locked up, fighting off pain
Now everybody wanna sing
Who wanna make beats, why not be a lawyer
Cause most times that's where all our money go
When we fighting our folks tryna run with our dough
But some things you never know
If you spend all day hearing only 10 songs
We all play a part in the system gone wrong
It can change too, we just gotta be strong
I just wanna be free
At the end of the day I can only be me
Open up your eyes and maybe you'll see
That I am who I'm dying to be, I wanna be free
I just wanna be free
At the end of the day I can only be me
Open up your eyes and maybe you'll see
That I am who I'm dying to be, I wanna be
Invest in you, time well spent
Nothing happens overnight, gotta keep going in
You want it, you got it, just keep on reaching for the stars
I know it seems that dream is too far to fathom
But dedication and patience will make it happen
I see the brightness now
And I know that it all started with some ambition and a plan
And I know that it all started with some ambition and a plan
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
And I know that it all started with some ambition and a plan
