Around My Way (Freedom Ain't Free) - Lupe Fiasco[00:00:00]
Yeah Great american rap resurrecccccccctttttttttt [00:00:02]
Rest in peace Young M Pourin live from the sound[00:00:09]
Uh POURIN LIVE FROM THE SET YEAH [00:00:17]
First off say peace to Pine Ridge[00:00:20]
Shame to all the damage that the white man wine did[00:00:22]
Ghost dance Trail of tears five million beers for years[00:00:24]
And all that other crime did[00:00:27]
More peace to the teachers of blind kids[00:00:28]
To rebels in small cells keeping their mind big[00:00:31]
Say everything's hostile[00:00:33]
Suicide bombers and prosperity gospels emaciated models[00:00:34]
With cocaine and blood pouring out their nostrils they got to[00:00:38]
Just to stay awake on the catwalk of life where everybody watch you[00:00:41]
Straight hair high heels and a handbag[00:00:45]
Crucifixes racism and a land grab[00:00:48]
Katrina FEMA trailers human body sandbags[00:00:50]
A peace sign and a pants sag[00:00:53]
A money toss cause a 9 stripper mad dash[00:00:55]
A friend request following a hash tag[00:00:57]
Now everybody want it like a last laugh[00:00:59]
A Michael Jackson jacket or a daft mask[00:01:02]
Purple Jordans or the mixed girl in your math class[00:01:04]
Stable is when the Ba'ath had Baghdad[00:01:07]
But corporate jets really had to have that gas bad[00:01:08]
War and they hope they all fall from the ratatat[00:01:11]
Cause that's just more dinosaur for the Cadillac[00:01:13]
Live from the other side what you see[00:01:16]
A bunch of nonsense on my TV[00:01:18]
Heaven on Earth is what I need[00:01:20]
But I feel I'm in Hell every time I breathe[00:01:22]
Reporting live from the other side what you hear[00:01:25]
A bunch of nonsense all in my ear[00:01:27]
Rich man poor man we all gotta pay[00:01:29]
Cause freedom ain't free especially 'round my way[00:01:32]
And we marvel at the state of Ottoman[00:01:35]
Then turn around and treat Ghana like a garbage can[00:01:37]
America's a big motherf**kin' garbageman[00:01:39]
If you ain't know you're part and parcel of the problem[00:01:41]
You say no you ain't and I say yes you is[00:01:44]
Soon as you find out what planned obsolescence is[00:01:46]
You say no they didn't and I say yes they did[00:01:48]
The definition of unnecessary-ness manifested[00:01:51]
Say that we should protest just to get arrested[00:01:55]
That goes against all my hustling ethics[00:01:58]
A bunch of jail niggas say its highly ineffective[00:02:00]
Depart from Martin connect on Malcolm X tip[00:02:02]
Insert Baldwin to similar the separate[00:02:05]
To me the truth is more fulfilling than a meth hit[00:02:07]
Or finding really fast internet to have some sex with[00:02:09]
It's all one song short of a set list[00:02:12]
Couple croissants shy of a continental breakfast[00:02:14]
Or blowing out your birthday candles just to make a death wish[00:02:16]
So absurd word to Chief Bone Necklace[00:02:19]
Down at the Lakota Sioux Casino[00:02:22]
A whole culture boiled down to giving you pokeno[00:02:23]
I go as left as a heart in the chest[00:02:26]
Cause the Horn of Africa is now starving to death[00:02:28]
Live from the other side what you see[00:02:30]
A bunch of nonsense on my TV[00:02:33]
Heaven on Earth is what I need[00:02:35]
But I feel I'm in Hell every time I breathe[00:02:37]
Reporting live from the other side what you hear[00:02:40]
A bunch of nonsense all in my ear[00:02:42]
Rich man poor man we all gotta pay[00:02:44]
Cause freedom ain't free especially 'round my way[00:02:47]
An all white Los Angeles the dream of Mr Chandler[00:02:49]
Hope and pray they take Columbus day up off the calendar[00:02:51]
South Central an example of God's gifts[00:02:54]
So shout to all the mothers raising babies in SPA 6[00:02:56]
The projects of Oakland city Detroit ghost towns[00:02:58]
Monopolies on poverty where D-boy coke bound[00:03:01]
It's parts of Manila like the video for "Thriller"[00:03:03]
But the US Embassy is reminiscent of a villa[00:03:05]
If poverty is chocolate and privilege vanilla[00:03:08]
Then what's the flavor of the Sunday preacher's pedophilia[00:03:10]
Cash rules everything around these niggas[00:03:12]
As classrooms everywhere around me wither[00:03:14]
Hither you can be Mr Burns or Mr Smithers[00:03:17]
The tyrant or the slave but nowhere in the middle[00:03:19]
Of the extremes of America's dream[00:03:22]
Freud fighting Neo Freddy Krueger refereeing now[00:03:24]
Live from the other side what you see[00:03:27]
A bunch of nonsense on my TV[00:03:29]
Heaven on Earth is what I need[00:03:31]
But I feel I'm in Hell every time I breathe[00:03:33]
Reporting live from the other side what you hear[00:03:36]
A bunch of nonsense all in my ear[00:03:38]
Rich man poor man we all gotta pay[00:03:40]
Cause freedom ain't free especially 'round my way[00:03:43]
Great American rap resurrecccccccctttttttttt [00:03:46]
Lupe on the check Uh Westside 'Til I die[00:03:53]
