[Kano, Future Utopia, Albert Woodfox - Freedom lyrics]
Sippin' on caipirinhas with
The christ redeemer
Thinkin' there's nothin' more
Freein' than to swipe a Visa
If freedom really is financial
Dockin' yachts in 'Biza
With lobster broth beneath ya, captain
What the cost of Rica?
Uh, still seas run deep
Alarm clocks kill dreams while
Our children sleep
This free country seems fuckery ‘cause
It's built on grief
And you can't roam free
With your skin non-bleached
This black makes me proud
This crown weights me down
When your possessions got you trapped
You can't Waze it out
Declutter, see underneath the
Shades and gowns
Can't take drip with you when
You grace the ground
These days locked down will tеach us
Two metres, me and my quarantina
Ain't seen Gucci for months
And that's a weight of my
Shoulders for Deyontay reasons
But four walls can't box me in
I'm a quantum leaper what is freedom?
This microphone for me
So I can flow and speak reason
No one's really free 'til
Opportunities are even
They try and kill the speech of our leaders
But this is for my kings and Latifahs
This is for my kings and Latifahs
This is for my kings and Latifahs
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom
We didn't just survive
We prospered as human beings
We found a way to develop
Moral principal and values
And disciplines that made us
Better human beings
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom
This is for my kings and Latifahs
This is for my kings and Latifahs
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom
So, freedom isn't about your external
Situation or your environment?
Well, it gives you the ability
To control your environment, you know
That's what freedom is, it's the ability
Like I said to take your philosophical views
Or your theoretical views
Or your personal views or whatever
And make it real, you know
Move it from within yourself
To outside yourself like I said
I think I achieved mental and
Emotional and philosophical freedom
When I was around in my early forties
That's when I had re-educated myself
And had accumulated enough
Experience and wisdom
Where I was able to define
What kind of person I
Wanted to be for the rest of my life
But at the time
Also time that I realised that there were
Limitations to what I could achieve
Because I was physically still in prison
The christ redeemer
Thinkin' there's nothin' more
Freein' than to swipe a Visa
If freedom really is financial
Dockin' yachts in 'Biza
With lobster broth beneath ya, captain
What the cost of Rica?
Uh, still seas run deep
Alarm clocks kill dreams while
Our children sleep
This free country seems fuckery ‘cause
It's built on grief
And you can't roam free
