anikonda - set me free lyrics

[chorus]

i’m tryna free my mind but i ain’t free
all my dreams on hold, yeah i can’t see
all the pain and the history they can’t teach
a route to freedom feels out of reach

yeah they gaming the system we gotta play now
lots of ways to go in i gotta try to stay out
they telling everyone education is a way out
but with the school to prison pipe line how will it play out?

[verse 1]
zero tolerance for fights zero tolerance for rights
zero times i ever thought zero tolerance was right
not to mention zero t ain’t zero if your white
let’s all zero in, let’s try to see thе light

if a kid gets suspended it’s 3 timеs to prison
not to mention school demographics making division
adding in the cops arresting kids learning bout fission
for some money and share prices they all got a mission

first day of school or right before the floor
any slip up and it’s right out the door
policies and bills it’s all fictional lore
they tryna clip our wings but we gonna soar

the classrooms getting colder but our minds are on fire
we wanna see change we wanna go higher

[chorus x 1]

[verse 2]
all l ever ever wanted was a shiny degree
but all i see is a shiny cell block in 2c
calling to me telling me that i can’t be
the best version of myself that i can’t see

i say the systems rigged, they telling me i missed
locked up in record numbers making every guinness list
want to hold up my diploma but got cuffs on my wrist
corecivic counting checks, median income don’t exist
all the teachers that wrote me up tearing me down
when all i ever did was tell a couple jokes and be a class clown
wien all i ever did was bring a laugh to a bad part of town
now the jokes on me, cuz i’m
in a box and there’s nothing around
there’s nothing around
the system telling i don’t amount
to anything they tryna put me into the ground

[chorus x 1]
