《I Want To Be Free》歌词

[00:03:13] You think Oakland California is a city of punks

[00:03:13] It only takes a second, to pop the trunk

[00:03:13] And just like that you know it＇s real

[00:03:13] You＇re in the right damn town to get killed

[00:03:13] It＇s all about the game, and nothin else

[00:03:13] You come out here, you better watch yourself

[00:03:13] Cause you can wear what you want, even blue or red

[00:03:13] But cross the wrong brothers, and end up dead

[00:03:13] You catch a body full of bullets, and get blasted

[00:03:13] Tryin to be a gangsta but you just ain＇t lastin

[00:03:13] This little town is gettin wild as hell

[00:03:13] Check the penetentiaries and all the jails

[00:03:13] If they could lock us all up that would be just fine

[00:03:13] Got my partners from Oakland doin serious time

[00:03:13] You can＇t argue with the truth it＇s hard to be black

[00:03:13] But it＇s a mindgame, and you gotta deal with that

[00:03:13] I wake up everyday and I just can＇t wait

[00:03:13] To make mo money, cause back in the days

[00:03:13] when I rapped, I did the same damn thing I do now

[00:03:13] Grab the microphone, and show you how

[00:03:13] But I was broke, the only thing I had was game

[00:03:13] I started makin money and knew things would change

[00:03:13] Bought a Benz, thought it might earn respect

[00:03:13] But the OPD, found it hard to accept

[00:03:13] I got jacked by the Task and jacked by the Vice

[00:03:13] Face down on the ground keep my hands in sight

[00:03:13] Put the handcuffs on backseat I＇m in it

[00:03:13] Illegal search for about thirty minutes

[00:03:13] Askin me, where＇s the dope

[00:03:13] Where＇s my gun, but I don＇t know

[00:03:13] I said I＇m rappin, they laugh like I told a joke

[00:03:13] And to this day they think I＇m sellin coke

[00:03:13] I want to be free! (and that＇s the truth) Ohhh yeahhh

[00:03:13] I want to be free! Ohhh yeahhh

[00:03:13] I be in Oakland California every day of my life

[00:03:13] bass so hard you think I＇m smokin a pipe

[00:03:13] And if I don＇t smoke it, I gots to grind

[00:03:13] Searched all my stuff, and all you find

[00:03:13] is a pocket full of money count seven G＇s

[00:03:13] Now you wanna think I＇m sellin keys

[00:03:13] Cause I＇m a black man, but I run my own business

[00:03:13] So why the police wanna send me to prison

[00:03:13] They see a brother makin major cash

[00:03:13] They knock a patch out his black ass

[00:03:13] And that＇s the truth, you can＇t argue you at all

[00:03:13] Tryin to give you ten years for a phone call

[00:03:13] Ain＇t even trippin on the dank smoke

[00:03:13] Cause all they wanna find, is guns and coke

[00:03:13] In court all the time tryin to fight it

[00:03:13] We get rich, we get indeibted

[00:03:13] So what＇s the problem Officer this time?

[00:03:13] Is havin big money bein black a crime?

[00:03:13] Or did you take me to jail, to teach me a lesson

[00:03:13] Charge me with somethin, or just ask questions

[00:03:13] About the brothers I hang around

[00:03:13] What＇s really goin on in the Oakland town

[00:03:13] Tell me who went broke, and who got rich

[00:03:13] But Too $hort baby just ain＇t no snitch

[00:03:13] You say you＇re just doin your job

[00:03:13] But you＇re gettin on my nerves, just like Bob

[00:03:13] Everytime I hit a corner, I see you

[00:03:13] Always tellin brothers what to do

[00:03:13] You lock me up cause I don＇t know how to act

[00:03:13] But I＇m down for mine so I be talkin back

[00:03:13] And when I do, you treat me bad as hell

[00:03:13] I＇m sick of spendin nights in jail

[00:03:13] I want to be free! (and that＇s the truth) Ohhh yeahhh

[00:03:13] I want to be free! Ohhh yeahhh

[00:03:13] Got out of jail about fo＇-fifteen

[00:03:13] Walkin down the street like a broke dopefiend

[00:03:13] Had a pocket full of money tryin to play the role

[00:03:13] Benz got towed and I was hella cold

[00:03:13] But I ain＇t trippin, I＇m gettin used to it now

[00:03:13] Handcuffed your boy took me straight downtown

[00:03:13] for three warrants, had to catch me sooner or later

[00:03:13] Cause the five-oh＇s always tryin to jack a playa

[00:03:13] for no reason, wasn＇t doin nothin wrong

[00:03:13] You think I＇m lyin, singin that same ol song

[00:03:13] Well I＇m a black man, ridin in a Benz

[00:03:13] How in the hell did I make these ends? Here we go

[00:03:13] I pull over to the right

[00:03:13] Stop the engine keep my hands in sight

[00:03:13] I start cursin, cause it don＇t make sense

[00:03:13] Why would I run and try to jump a fence

[00:03:13] If I was plannin, a smooth getaway

[00:03:13] I never woulda stopped in the first place

[00:03:13] You＇d be high speed chasin me but this time you ain＇t

[00:03:13] Cause all I got on me is a big fat bank

[00:03:13] And I hope I don＇t get robbed by you know who

[00:03:13] Make me donate some G＇s to the boys in blue

[00:03:13] And if I sue, I won＇t get nothin back

[00:03:13] But I ain＇t mad... I＇m just black...

[00:03:13] I want to be free! Ohhh yeahhh

[00:03:13] I want to be free! Ohhh yeahhh

[00:03:13] I want to be free! Ohhh yeahhh

[00:03:13] I want to be free! Ohhh yeahhh
