Everything I have, everything I own
All my mistakes man you already know
I wanna be free, I wanna be free
From Senegal West Africa
To St. Louis, Missouri
Thanks to Katherine Dunham
For giving my pops his glory
He came down with his drum
And a dream to change the world
In a free upliftin world
And thats all he ever want
Mom came a little after
Gave birth to my brother

Made em’ fight one another
See, the pain would never last

And he searched to find his

As a kid I never knew
I’d have to hustle just to make it through
So I found myself skipping school
Cause’ the girls don’t think I’m cool
And because of that I didn’t care
Whether or not I went to jail
I just wanna be treated fair
Cause’ that’s all I ever knew
Tellin’ me I need to slow down
Cause’ everybody in the whole town
Cause’ they know how I get down
Far enough from another town
?Can you believe we still around
After so many hit the ground
And we ain’t gon stop now
.. Until we get that
