The secret to happiness is freedom, and the secret to freedom is courage
This is the land of the free, and the home of the brave
I strongly disagree, but, this is what they all say
They had all this b#llsh#t just washed in their brains
Cause those who don’t move, won’t notice their chains
You’re in a pool of ignorance, i’m up realities steps
I’m broke as f#ck, just handin out reality checks
Like: “when will they wake up?”
Always sayin how they’re woke, takin selfies with their eyes wide shut
With all these victimless crimes, how could you say that you’re free?
In another 30 years, where do you think that we’ll be?
They get paid to kill innocent people, this shit’s bad
Bullets sprayin like paint, and you could get tagged
Sad, and coincidental
You got freedom of speech, but, anything you say can be used against you
Like the only rights they want you to have is your miranda
So take a proper gander at the propaganda
Let’s wake up!
I said freedom ain’t free, they’re chargin you a fee
You’re payin with your soul, but your eyes don’t see
Rep a color and kill? they’d be callin you a gang
Police do the same thing (everyday, motha f#cka…bang!)
Wish you could see what i see, but, you forgot your glasses
I’m teachin, they don’t even know they’re sittin in classes
Rep a color and kill? they’d be callin you a gang
Police do the same thing (everyday, motha f#cka…bang!)
I’m as real as they come, f#ck the hood that i’m from
Just because i had a seizure, i ain’t bitin my tongue
But when i vibrate truth, then, son, it’s shame on me
Cause someone’s feelings got hurt, so, put the blame on me
It’s the hate that i see for pointin out reality
How about if i’m offended that you’re offended by me!?
Take one from the bottle of hard pills to swallow
Everybody fall in line, son, but, i don’t follow
Picture me alterin myself to appease a clown
f#ck havin a filter, don’t want my sh#t watered down
It’s like free speech was given up for rights to steal
Cause you can’t be real, no cypress hill
Pretty soon, i won’t be able to spit
They say a change comin, i’m waitin, like i’m servin tables for tips
And i want out, fast
Because an angel in a room full of devils is still considered an outcast
But, i’m chillin…
You’re free to take these pills with all these side effects
But use a natural plant, and they put you under arrest
It’s retarded, at best, and you support this system
Speakin on deaf ears, cause they’re refusin to listen
But you swear that you’re free, so, the joke’s on me
I’m just writin a book about teachin you how to read……
That’s why i say what i like, and have a point when i write
Tryin to reach all my goals, irregardless of my height
They wanna stunt your growth, i beg you, please, don’t let them
All these limiting beliefs that you were fed, forget them
It’s like i’m morpheus, all i’m doin is statin the truth
Offerin the red pill, and they’re just takin the blue
My god, the dirt they did could probably bury them alive
And then you go and call them heroes, like you’re lookin for a rise
So, go ahead and hate what i say
Cause you think you got freedom until these motha f#ckas take it away…
This ain’t a game!
