Freedom Lyrics by Unkle Adams

Humble Beginnings

2014

[Verse 1]
Jesus I don’t believe these kids
They don’t even know what freedom is
It’s a first world problem if the TV
Isn’t 3D actin like life isn’t easy
Please kid this is your reality check
It seems you and your pals are lackin’ respect
Men and women died to protect this nation
It’d be nice if you showed some appreciation
You can walk the streets free watch some TV
Play hop scotch and eat pizza hot and greasy
Believe me you’re set up in a pretty position
To speak free and practice any religion
Some get locked up for speakin’ their mind
Or kidnapped snatched in the middle of the night
Put it in perspective and take it as a reason
To be forever grateful for your freedom

[Hook]
Freedom is a gift not a right you are given
So think about that when you live how you livin’
It took me a while to break from these chains
You don’t know freedom till it’s taken away

[Verse 2]
Words used to hurt me until I learned how
To block out any clown tryna’ blurt out
Hurtful words just to get on my nerves
Now I let it all go livin’ free as bird
No sir this head is not for rent
I read what you said but already forget
No one directs me my mind was set free
I’m ready to face it whatever the test be
No limitations no restrictions
Let em’ all talk while I walk the distance
This is my ship everybody should know
That I’m the only one that can run the controls
I broke free mentally from a prison
I will not be a slave to opinion
Skip the criticism I’m not listenin’
And mind your business this is my existence

[Hook]
Freedom is a gift not a right you are given
So think about that when you live how you livin’
It took me a while to break from these chains
You don’t know freedom till it’s taken away

[Verse 3]
It’s tragic even on Christmas Eve
He skipped dinner so he could play the machines
He’s held captive by a bad habit
He can’t stop or escape the sadness
It’s madness he doesn’t have a dollar to his name
Lookin’ for a bottle to swallow up the pain
He’s a free man but he’s livin’ as a slave
To his addiction condition of the brain
This is it this is where the buck stops
He stumbles across a number on a bus stop
His eyes water as he dials up the digits
Thinking of his kids helps the decision
He did it he never missed a class of counselling
Fifteen years plus clean and counting
Surrounding himself with the will to succeed
It’s been a long road but he’s finally free

[Hook]
Freedom is a gift not a right you are given
So think about that when you live how you livin’
It took me a while to break from these chains
You don’t know freedom till it’s taken away

[Outro]
Freedom
Freedom
