We Could Be Free(Clean)(Clean)

We Could Be Free(Clean) - Ty Dolla $ign&Vic Mensa [00:00:00]

Written by:Victor Mensah&Larrance Dopson&Malik Yusef Jones&Glenda Proby&Tyrone Griffin Jr[00:00:01]

We could be free[00:00:15]

If we only knew we were slaves to the pains of each other[00:00:18]

One day I believe I'd learn[00:00:22]

To see my enemy as my brother[00:00:27]

Then we could be free truly[00:00:30]

And love could wash away our sorrows[00:00:35]

I'm not afraid to bleed[00:00:38]

If it means we'll make them better today not tomorrow[00:00:41]

One day I dream of telling my momma[00:00:48]

You ain't gotta work no more[00:00:50]

Same for my father born in Ghana down on that dirt road floor[00:00:52]

As far as he came I can't complain but pain is so subjective[00:00:56]

Spend so much time countin' issues I forget to count[00:00:59]

My blessings[00:01:03]

Watch my cousins back at home getting water out a well[00:01:03]

While I watch my brother stacking stone whippin' water by the scale[00:01:07]

Tryna' get a mill' on the other side[00:01:11]

They ain't got a meal we don't recognize we in heaven[00:01:13]

So we think we live in hell[00:01:15]

It's been getting kinda hard to tell[00:01:17]

But[00:01:19]

Sometimes I wake up and I look up at the sky[00:01:19]

Asking why I'm alive when the realest n**gas died[00:01:23]

And my pride won't let me give up lord as hard as I try[00:01:27]

In those times I try to remember[00:01:31]

That we could be free[00:01:34]

If we only knew we were slaves to the pains of each other[00:01:38]

One day I believe I'd learn[00:01:42]

To see my enemy as my brother[00:01:47]

Then we could be free truly[00:01:50]

And love could wash away our sorrows[00:01:55]

I'm not afraid to bleed[00:01:58]

If it means we'll make them better today not tomorrow[00:02:01]

We make a better today not tomorrow[00:02:19]

I don't want to wait for the afterlife[00:02:24]

I don't want a vigil by candle light[00:02:25]

I don't want to be the new sacrifice[00:02:27]

I don't want to turn into a poltergeist[00:02:29]

Be a ghost at night full of broken dreams[00:02:31]

Momma cryin' at an open casket[00:02:33]

Cold as ice in a suit 3 piece[00:02:35]

All dressed up for Sunday ma**es[00:02:37]

Pastor said put faith in god[00:02:39]

But faith alone can't make things right[00:02:41]

Who the f**k is you to patronize[00:02:43]

Somebody's son whose daddy died[00:02:45]

Why they flood baton rouge[00:02:48]

Why the city singing Alton's blues[00:02:49]

Why why why why[00:02:51]

I feel like Jadakiss every time I watch the news[00:02:53]

What the f**k I got to lose[00:02:55]

So I'm down to bleed if it means things improve[00:02:57]

You fools saying all lives matter[00:02:59]

But it's black lives you refuse include[00:03:01]

Blocked from the polls[00:03:03]

Locked in the hood trying to stop you from voting and stop you from growing[00:03:04]

And cops keep blowing and blowing[00:03:07]

Keep black people locked into cotton[00:03:09]

They don't want you to own but[00:03:10]

Sometimes I wake up and I look up in the sky[00:03:12]

Asking why I survived all the days that I could have died[00:03:15]

Who am I in my place[00:03:19]

To contemplate suicide[00:03:21]

In those times I try to remember[00:03:23]

That we could be free truly[00:03:26]

If we'd only knew we were slaves to the pains of each other[00:03:31]

But I believe I'd learn[00:03:34]

To see my enemy as my brother[00:03:39]

Then we could be free truly[00:03:42]

And we could wash away our sorrows[00:03:47]

I'm not afraid to bleed if it means[00:03:50]

We'll make them better today not tomorrow[00:03:55]

Somebody[00:04:01]

Make my enemy my brother[00:04:03]

Woah oh oh oh[00:04:09]

Make better today not tomorrow[00:04:11]

Make my enemy my brother[00:04:35]
