obasi - free man lyrics
[verse 1]
i used to think the gl-ss was half full
the gr-ss on my pasture green as the hulk
the next window open faster than the last door done even closed
every storm lined with silver and chased after by the rainbow
life’ll only throw you lemons, and every thorn’s got a rose
but of late, disaster’s made me ask if my math is all that rational
cause in the past, if i was an -ss, i thought i would be asked to go
but now i know that that’s the path to making it as the potus
alas, maybe i’m seeing at last what i looked past before!
cause right now blacks ought to be basking in the afterglow
but i’m thinking freedom’s more fantastic than it’s factual?
my pastor swore we was all b-st-rds, seeking after forgiveness
the doctor said it’s pathological, black is a sickness
i’m no physician, in fact, i’m really not that religious
but if i’m honest, this shit all just really comes down to business
the one on top’s the one that’s willing to get real loud and vicious
yo f-ck forgiveness, i’m ambitious, and i’m out for vengeance
[chorus]
free, i’m a free man
i’m a free, i’m a free man
[verse 2]
and evidently you think you’re a liberal, but where’s your f-cking patience?
oh, evidently i’m a criminal . . . no reparations
you put your kid in private school? that’s called segregation
you say you love me from a distance; i call that complacence
and what is free? everything you give is just placebo
you broken one too many promises, i plan to veto
your secret dream that you’re supreme, you better sleep in fetal
i’ll never let you touch my family; i’m al pacino
your lethal ethos is a venomous plan, but a vain vendetta
you truly believe if you don’t lend us a hand, we ain’t gon’ get up?
you keep your cheddar, i’mma take my chance; transcend better
no playing games, i’m making gains, i’m a plain trendsetter
the problem is that you’re the evil one
it’s all deception, only lies that make your people run
and if i’m violent in your minds, then tell me where’s my gun?
this revolution’s televised and i’ve already won
[chorus]
free, i’m a free man
i’m a free, i’m a free man
[verse 3]
i won’t lie to your face; i don’t fight twice as hard to be your equal
i’m so much better; fight till i’m scarred so i can beat your evil
so take your odds, your headstart, i’d like to feed your ego
no safeguards, no race cards, i could beat vin diesel
i’m beyond anger, beyond pity, beyond jealous
beyond iffy, beyond quitting, we aren’t finished
beyond sitting, beyond fearing the consequence
of shaking the defensive underpinnings of everyone sitting on the fence
but sure as heck, i’ll never get beyond the disrespect
so back your bark, take your mark, go on and place your bet
can’t wait to see you bake my cake, i’ll make you pay your debt
four hundred years, your greatest fear, i’m here to cash my check!
and matter fact, i want dividends
revenge is sweet, the taste of donuts in a benz
with spinning rims, i’mma send condolence to your kin
watch me make america greater than it’s ever been!
[chorus]
free, i’m a free man
i’m a free, i’m a free man
