BORN FREE

Lyrics

Yeah, man made powers
 Stood like a tower, higher, higher, hello
 And the higher you go, you feel lower, oh
 I was close to the end
 Staying undercover, staying undercover
 With a nose to the ground, I found my sound
 Got myself an interview tomorrow
 I got myself a jacket for a dollar
 And my nails are chipped, but I'm eager
 And the car doesn't work, so I'm stuck here
 Yeah, I don't wanna live for tomorrow
 I push my life today
 I throw this in your face when I see ya
 I got something to say
 I throw this shit in your face when I see ya
 'Cause I got something to say
 I was born free (born free)
 I was born free (born free)
 Born free, born free
 Born free, born free
 You could try to find ways to be happier
 You might end up somewhere in Ethiopia
 You can think big with your idea
 You ain't never gonna find Utopia
 Take a bite out of life, make it snappier, yeah
 Ordinary gone super trippier
 So I check shit 'cause I'm lippier
 Oh, split a Czech like Slovakia
 Yeah, I don't wanna live for tomorrow
 I push my life today
 I throw this in your face when I see you
 'Cause I got something to say
 I throw this shit in your face when I see you
 'Cause I got something to say
 I was born free (born free)
 I was born free (born free)
 I was born free (born free)
 I was born free (born free)
 Born free, born free
 Born free, born free, oh, oh
 I don't wanna talk 'bout money 'cause I got it
 And I don't wanna talk 'bout hoochies 'cause I've been it
 And I don't wanna be that fake, but you can do it
 And imitators, yeah, speak it
 Oh, Lord, whoever you are
 Yeah, come out wherever you are
 Oh, Lord, whoever you are
 Yeah, come out wherever you are (and tell 'em)
 I was born free (born free)
 I was born free (born free)
 I was born free (born free)
 I was born free (born free)
 
 Born free, born free
 Born free, born free
