Freedom Lyrics by Rayon Nelson

Closer EP

2019

[Intro]
Freedom
Freedom, ooh ooh ooh
Freedom
Freedom, ooh ooh ooh

[Verse 1]
They say love is unconditional
Well, tell it to the kids you've been shooting down
You seem to think that I've got it wrong, oh
Tell me, where was the justice in Ferguson, ah yeah
They say in life we are all equal
Tell it to the queen who can't find her crown
Born into a world where she’s forced to be strong
Age 12 and she's fighting for her freedom
And every night she sings

[Chorus]
Freedom is what we want now
Freedom is what we need
Freedom is what we want now
Freedom is what we need

[Verse 2]
I heard she travelled 100 miles to escape the guns
Both parents gone, now she has no one, oh
Praying for a new life in a foreign land
On the borders pleading, hoping you will understand
We talk about the problem but we won't change, oh
Giving up some privileges seem too insane
Can we war no more, cause we're losing our young
How far can we go without our freedom
So if you hear me sing

[Chorus]
Freedom is what we want now
Freedom is what we need
Freedom is what we want now
Freedom is what we need
Freedom is what we want now
Freedom is what we need
Freedom is what we want now
Freedom is what we need

[Bridge]
Freedom
Tell it to them now
Is what we want now
Shout it out loud
Freedom
Tell it to them now
Need
'Cause we've had enough (we've had enough)
Freedom
Tell it to them now
Is what we want now
You've gotta shout it out loud
Freedom
Tell it to them now
Need
'Cause we've had enough

[Chorus]
Freedom is what we want now
Freedom is what we need
Freedom is what we want now
Freedom is what we need
