[00:00:00] Around My Way (Freedom Ain't Free) [Originally Performed by Lupe Fiasco

[00:00:20] First off say peace to Pine Ridge

[00:00:22] Shame at all the damage the white man wine did

[00:00:24] Ghost dance Trail of Tears 5 million beers a year

[00:00:27] And all that other crime did

[00:00:29] More peace to the teachers of blind kids

[00:00:31] To rebels in small cells keeping their mind big

[00:00:34] Say everything's hostile

[00:00:34] Suicide bombers and prosperity gospels emaciated models

[00:00:39] With coc*ine and blood pouring out their nostrils they got to

[00:00:42] Just to stay awake on the catwalk of life where everybody watch you

[00:00:45] Straight hair high heels and a handbag

[00:00:48] Crucifixes racism and a land grab

[00:00:50] Katrina FEMA trailers human body sandbags

[00:00:53] A peace sign and a pants sag

[00:00:55] A money toss cause a 9 stripper mad dash

[00:00:58] A friend request following a hash tag

[00:01:00] Now everybody want it like the last laugh

[00:01:02] A Michael Jackson jacket or a daft mask

[00:01:04] Purple Jordans or the mixed girl in your math class

[00:01:07] Stable is when the Ba'ath had Baghdad

[00:01:09] But corporate jets really had to have that gas bad

[00:01:11] War and they hope they all fall from the ratatat

[00:01:14] Cause that's just more dinosaur for the Cadillac

[00:01:16] Live from the other side what you see

[00:01:18] A bunch of nonsense on my TV

[00:01:20] Heaven on Earth is what I need

[00:01:22] But I feel I'm in hell every time I breathe

[00:01:25] Reporting live from the other side what you hear

[00:01:27] A bunch of nonsense all in my ear

[00:01:30] Rich man poor man we all gotta pay

[00:01:32] Cause freedom ain't free especially 'round my way

[00:01:34] And we marvel at the state of Ottoman

[00:01:37] Then turn around and treat Ghana like a garbage can

[00:01:39] America's a big motherf**kin' garbageman

[00:01:42] If you ain't know you're part and parcel of the problem

[00:01:44] You say no you ain't and I say yes you is

[00:01:46] Soon as you find out what planned obsolescence is

[00:01:49] You say no they didn't and I say yes they did

[00:01:51] The definition of unnecessary-ness

[00:01:55] Manifested

[00:01:56] Say that we should protest just to get arrested

[00:01:58] That goes against all my hustling ethics

[00:02:00] A bunch of jail niggas say its highly ineffective

[00:02:02] Depart from Martin connect on Malcolm X tip

[00:02:05] Insert Baldwin to similar the separate

[00:02:07] To me the truth is more fulfilling than a meth hit

[00:02:09] Or finding really fast internet to have some sex with

[00:02:12] It's all one song short of a set list

[00:02:14] Couple croissants shy of a continental breakfast

[00:02:16] Or blowing out your birthday candles just to make a death wish

[00:02:19] So absurd word to Chief Bone Necklace

[00:02:22] Down at the Lakota Sioux Casino

[00:02:23] A whole culture boiled down to giving you paquino

[00:02:26] I go as left as a heart in the chest

[00:02:28] Cause the Horn of Africa is now starving to death

[00:02:31] Live from the other side what you see

[00:02:33] A bunch of nonsense on my TV

[00:02:35] Heaven on Earth is what I need

[00:02:37] But I feel I'm in hell every time I breathe

[00:02:40] Reporting live from the other side what you hear

[00:02:42] A bunch of nonsense all in my ear

[00:02:44] Rich man poor man we all gotta pay

[00:02:47] Cause freedom ain't free especially 'round my way

[00:02:49] An all white Los Angeles the dream of Mr Chandler

[00:02:51] Hope and pray they take Columbus day up off the calendar

[00:02:54] South Central an example of God's gifts

[00:02:56] So shout to all the mothers raising babies in spa 6

[00:02:58] The projects of Oakland city Detroit ghost towns

[00:03:01] Monopolies on poverty where D-boy coke bound

[00:03:03] It's parts of Manilla like the video for Thriller

[00:03:06] But the US Embassy is reminiscent of a villa

[00:03:08] If poverty is chocolate and privilege vanilla

[00:03:10] Then what's the flavor of the Sunday preacher's pedophilia

[00:03:13] Cash rules everything around these niggas

[00:03:15] As classrooms everywhere around me wither

[00:03:17] Hither you can be Mr Burns or Mr Smithers

[00:03:19] The tyrant or the slave but nowhere in the middle

[00:03:22] Of the extremes of America's dream

[00:03:24] Freud fighting Neo Freddy Krueger refereeing naaa

[00:03:27] Live from the other side what you see

[00:03:29] A bunch of nonsense on my TV

[00:03:31] Heaven on Earth is what I need

[00:03:33] But I feel I'm in hell every time I breathe

[00:03:36] Reporting live from the other side what you hear

[00:03:38] A bunch of nonsense all in my ear

[00:03:41] Rich man poor man we all gotta pay

[00:03:43] Cause freedom ain't free especially 'round my way
