Want To Be - Oddisee[00:00:00]

There's this feeling I've been chasing[00:00:16]

I've got leads on its location[00:00:18]

It changes form every time I face it[00:00:20]

Only appreciated when it's gone[00:00:22]

Taken for granted like it's etched in stone[00:00:24]

But liberty ain't strong any wrong break it[00:00:26]

Placed in my arms my controls in cages[00:00:28]

'Tween a rock and a hard place and they say move on[00:00:30]

That's what I'm trying to do a miracle to perform[00:00:32]

But you can't make that without an eyebrow raising[00:00:34]

People want your magic for their own ovation[00:00:36]

When you're in full bloom is when the beehive swarms[00:00:38]

And the time I've wasted trying to fit in norms[00:00:40]

People like me more when I pretend I'm basic[00:00:42]

But what do I want I practiced patience[00:00:44]

And right then and there it dawned[00:00:46]

I just want to be happy[00:00:48]

I just want to be free[00:00:52]

I just want to be left alone[00:00:56]

I just want to be me[00:01:00]

What in the world are you looking for[00:01:05]

Can't a young man get money on tour[00:01:07]

Live in Brooklyn buildings prewar[00:01:09]

With a name that don't make you think of c4[00:01:11]

High ceiling apartments[00:01:13]

No ceiling on my living I ain't giving up options[00:01:14]

Love without a limit is the mission accomplished[00:01:16]

Don't expect to get it without wetting of armpits[00:01:18]

I sweat these pores[00:01:20]

In this American scheme a picket sign to a fence[00:01:21]

They want to kick me out the country as a line of defense[00:01:23]

See me I'm from the country and I'm proud of my ends[00:01:25]

And even though you try to shun me you ain't shrouding intent[00:01:27]

I'm just a man with a vision in a tunnel with hit men[00:01:29]

Trying to shoot the light bulb because they thought I was twitching[00:01:32]

Got a few ideas wrote them down in a list[00:01:34]

Let me say them now before I forget them[00:01:35]

I just want to be happy[00:01:37]

I just want to be free[00:01:41]

I just want to be left alone[00:01:45]

I just want to be me[00:01:49]

I don't believe in a promise[00:01:54]

Unless it's one I made myself[00:01:55]

'Cause there is no denying the facts[00:01:57]

If I'm the only accomplice[00:01:58]

And rarely have I courted for help[00:01:59]

I ain't trying to monstrous[00:02:01]

I just want month's rent[00:02:02]

A little something extra I ain't hoarding the wealth[00:02:03]

'Cause 99 percent of us is trying to get success[00:02:05]

That 99 percent of us was already dealt[00:02:07]

No trophy on the mantle but I got a mantle[00:02:09]

When mama couldn't pay the power I would grab the candles[00:02:11]

I'm just thankful I can channel that to block tangle[00:02:13]

Steering straight I don't hesitate to park an angle[00:02:15]

I'm just trying to turn a smirk to a smile[00:02:17]

Restricted to allow[00:02:19]

All while keeping my distance from the crowd[00:02:20]

And that may change along the road I pave[00:02:22]

But today right here and now[00:02:24]

I just want to be happy[00:02:25]

I just want to be free[00:02:29]

I just want to be left alone[00:02:34]

I just want to me[00:02:38]

I just want to be happy[00:02:42]

I just want to be free[00:02:46]

I just want to be left alone[00:02:50]

I just want to me[00:02:54]
