lirik lagu j. ikenna – free & independent
[ashanti]
harmonizing
[verse 1]
illuminate the strain
alleviate the pain
so it can once again experience a piece of peace to gain
society’s become an inst-tution where we’re ruled by many
and plenty plan to oppose but few stay true to the goal
so i swerve
through my city, simply wonder where to go
where to grow unbeknownst, sip serene for the soul
as new days age old and warm nights grow cold
i question who to follow for direction without a toll
some listen to the rich who some know most won’t compromise
some listen to the news believing gossip makes the wise
some listen to the preachers holding greed within their eyes
some listen to the teachers but the lessons come with lies
[hook 1]
and they say they got the cure, and their truth becomes the remedy
keep telling me, to free the being, all you need’s captivity
they mastermind, confront our lines and ravage us with pain and lies
until our eyes becomes the ones who watch us rot and sever ties
so rise against the propaganda that they hammer to our walls
before history repeats to be the past that seems to tarnish all
the chains of condescendment; the pain of our descendants;
do it for the future:
live free and independent
[verse 2]
as if the present is your weapon and the past is your shield
if the future makes you yield, then your gift should make it kneel
with your stance and circ-mstance work as one for its purpose
but it’s strange
my house is a home for progression but the house is a home for regression
and its seems our representative doesn’t represent me
that’s at least what i believe when theres change i cannot see
although i may be wrong
for a reason that is vein
avoiding current news in fear of occupymybrain
cause the thought of those of tan and darker tones committing every crime
only appeared when we let a few minds sell headlines
every government official isn’t solely spewing lies
but the lesser evils take some truths with them when they do die
like
avoid debt at all costs and truly only owe yourself
as conceited uncle sam ask “what can you do for themselves?”
[hook 2]
when they say they got the cure, and their truth becomes the remedy
keep telling me, to free the being, all you need’s captivity
they mastermind, confront our lines and ravage us with pain and lies
until our eyes becomes the ones who watch us rot and sever ties
so rise against the propaganda that they hammer to our walls
before history repeats to be the past that seems to tarnish all
the chains of condescendment; the pain of our descendants;
do it for the future:
live free and independent
