Freedom
Isn’t Free
(Yeah yeah)
Ohh freedom
(Yeah we going back old school)
Isn’t Free
I go by the name of Mc Rafiki
Mike check 1,2,3
Yeah
Check it
I’m back and I’m better
Better than ever
Sweeter the juice
My berry is Black
I’m darker than ever
Melanin drip-drip
Chocolate rain for the weather
Whether you like it or not
Say cheese
For the cheddar
Money making motivated Nigga
On the block
Like Nas
The king
Giving this rap thing all he got
Dropped out of school now he’s trying to go platinum
Sleeping on his homies couch
Working on his album
And the rent is past due
But he gone get the bag soon
Blow it on some chains and
Some unimportant accolades
How could you blame him?
Fatherless
He grew up in the streets
Didn’t wanna be a Screw up
Lost his brother from a Shoot-out
Only got his momma left
And right outside is the
IRS
Coming for a nigga
Only got a nickel
Left but turned it into a dime
Did 10 years federal Completely
Lost his mind
The rhyme became a grind
And now it’s time to outshine
The best to ever do it
Glory to God for the joy that got him through it
Yeah Yeah
Hey Mistarafiki
Let me tell them something real quick
Dondada
So we talking about freedom whatchu know about it
What’s your angle on it
Whatchu thinking should be done about it?
I just think it’s funny how in grade school we all learned about it
Just to find several years later
We still fight about it
Ain’t Nothing new under the sun
I live in a nation that would rather think
My cellphone is a
Gun
Then come say what’s done is done
Lord protect me
You know good and well
I’m my momma’s only son
I know I’m a chosen one
My aspirations go further than
Run nigga run
Slick with words I’m quick to learn
Slow to discern whether or not
A topic’s my concern
Always black and always proud
That don’t mean loud but if I wanted to be
That should be allowed
Melanin popping
Especially when that sun hits
Catch me on Snapchat
No filter cause that glow's lit
But being black is an extreme sport in my area
They try to kill a nigga faster than malaria
They causing mass hysteria
Insert unknown bacteria
It’s Genocide out here
Hi welcome to my America
They won’t succeed
I do believe that we the chosen people
God got our backs
I pray one day to see us all as
Equals
Black lives matter
Black lives matter
Black lives matter
I live in a country that wasn’t designed for me
It isn’t benign to me
It's in my bloodline you see
We were brought to this country
Not to succeed
Not to learn how to read
Especially not to exceed
The qualifications of the white man
Not to lead or be
Freed
Instead to bleed, for their need
To bring up to speed
Their beloved economy for it to prosper indeed
At the cost of a human being because
I’m 3/5ths of one
Right?
So technically
You’ve done no wrong because
I’m not full human
Right?
With no human whites
Oh wait, I’m sorry
I meant
Human rights...
I'm frowned upon
And looked down on Because of my
Skin
Pigment.
Its no figment of imagination
To see my rights all have a limit
I can be smart, even
Brilliant
But have to be much more resilient
Because that assistant job I should’ve had
They gave to that one civilian
You know
The one whose dad is CEO and never had to fight for nothing
Meanwhile, you fought for nothing but see
Nothing is my middle name
I look back I was at the bottom,
I see how far I don came
Not far enough
He got the job tells me it’s all just a game
That I can get every degree
But it’ll just be to frame
That my skin
Is to blame
For my high qualification yet
You not calling my name
You ever been so aggravated
And felt so humiliated?
Felt so far isolated
But can’t do a thing about it?
Powerless at its best
Which leads to him being depressed
But then he’s told
“Get over it”
You still got bills to pay
What rest?
Live your whole life in one place
They still treat you like a guest
You ever stared death in the face and just been told to
“Be strong”
Heart clogged up in your throat
Is he going to squeeze
Or move along?
To those that say
“F the police”
Don’t you dare say they’re wrong
You try living your whole life somewhere
You still don’t belong
Why is the likelihood of a black man getting arrested so high
You telling me for
“Fitting the profile”
I could easily
Die?
How you call yourself a Christian yet
Let my skin bother you?
Everyone loves those like them because
It’s easy to love those like you
Being a Christian means
Loving thy neighbor
Sometimes your neighbor
Don’t look just like you
Look up your facts
Jesus was black
So let me guess
You're going to hate Jesus too?
Why not find beauty in the difference
Instead
You let hate fill the void
You can’t succeed, much less thrive
If unity is destroyed
Freedom Isn’t Free
