Free like we want to be Some time you want to get off Leave the work and take off But the boss man say You gonna lose you pay No chain on your feet now 9 to 5 got you beat now You're working hard to save Inflation like a tidal wave Are we free like we want to be? Are we free like we want to be? Are we free like we want to be? Are you free like you want to be? Racist get defeat Black man vote and take your seat Now they think we gone quiet Maybe we start a riot What happen to the diamond they stole? The innocent blood run cold Do we still have to live in poverty? Now they say we're free to be poor But tell me, are we free like we want to be? We got to be free just like we want to be? I've got to be free I'm not talkin' about that mentally You've got to be free I'm a takin' spiritually Kept in emotion Will cause an explosion Let that love go Let me know, yeah Some people expect Hey, that's not what they get Yo, become no slave Of their evil and wicked ways Are you free like you want to be? I'm askin' you the question Are you free? Well it's the land of liberty Tell me if you're free Well are you free like you wanna be Can't walk the streets late at night Without fear of parasite And everyone has an inborn right A inborn right to life Who gave us the reason to fight? By promoting negative vibes Who taught us of drugs and crime? Now they say we're free to homicide Committing genocide We freely homicide Committing genocide Are we free like we wanna be? Are you free like you want to be? We are cryin' for freedom We are cryin' for love We are cryin' for freedom And we are cryin for love We are cryin' for freedom We are cryin' for love We cryin' We want to be We want to be free Free like we want to be We want to be free Free like we want to be We want to be free Free like we want to be We want to be free Free like we want to be We want to be free Free like we want to be We want to be free Free like we want to be LyricsKeeper
