Today Lyrics by David Sweet

2016

{Verse 1}

I wake up early in the mornin'
I'm rolling out of bed I roll one up
I cough instead of yawning
Falling, asleep in class thats me
I was more focused on my dreams than gettin' A's or B's
But ay, ya'll couldn't be like me
Young trendsetter with innovative tendencies
In a coupe, evading government agencies
It'll be ages if I ever see
An adversary write a better verse than me

{Hook}
I gotta be free
I'm gone
I'm leaving today and I ain't coming back
I gotta be free, I got-got a be free
I said I'm leaving today and I ain't coming back


{Verse 2}
Fast forward to the late night
Where great times come from struggle inside
Get to wondering when ones high time will arise
Like the horizon he shines
You gotta take the chance to fall when you tryna fly
& I ain't quick to change from street apparel to suit and tie
I like my Jays untied still
Gotta ways to go cause I'm paving the road
The weight up on my shoulders i don't care to carry the load
You don't know

{Pre-Hook}

{Hook}
I gotta be free
I'm gone
I'm leaving today and I ain't coming back
I gotta be free, I got-got a be free
I said I'm leaving today and I ain't coming back


{Outro}
They don't got much pleasure to find
Leaving Home -
Want you to see
I got to be free
They don't got much pleasure to find
Leaving home
Throw it away
I'm leaving today
