Freedom Ring Video (MV)

Funny how they tell us we free, that freedom rings
See death in the news, our necks they freely ring
Fingers on triggers but there's no freedom in the rings
Peace make you weak, real strength is in the ring
Cause violence solves violence or have you neglected that lesson
I'm delighted to share, just a piece of my message
No n***** no n*****, guess you rejected the message
When recession depressions we will just see who's been selfish
We can just see who's been selfless
We can just see who's been helpless
We can make moves to recoup
But it could've been helped if you listened
In the first place, tortoise in a hares race
Arrogance at fault what put us here in the first place

To those that never got to walk away
Who lost their life won't see another day
Who family marching for a better day
I lift my hands up to the sky and pray
Nobody knows the struggle that you see
They want your life but don't know what it means
I pray for unity I pray for peace
I know that God is watching over me

I been standing strong for way too long
I been trynna do things on my own
If I'm not careful I'm gone lose it all
Cause when you climb too high you bound to fall
I got promises I gotta kept
I got benefits I gotta reap
I lay flowers for those laid to rest
Don't worry bout it I'll pick up the rest
No disrespect to gangs but they know I'm not with the shooters
How many times a bullet gonna end one of our futures
How many times is someone gonna shout out hallelujah
Before you cleanse your soul and let the spirit get into ya
Real good game, speak a real good game
But really you just flopping you don't feel no pain
No pain, no gain
I guess that's just how it goes
Seems the ones in all the pain don't gain nothing but bullet holes

To those that never got to walk away
Who lost their life won't see another day
Who family marching for a better day
I lift my hands up to the sky and pray
Nobody knows the struggle that you see
They want your life but don't know what it means
I pray for unity I pray for peace
I know that God is watching over me

Black lives matter
We know all lives matter
But the black ones being taken
Why you feel your anger
I'm on my own two and I'm cuffed now
You see me down on all two and where's the love now
Baggy jeans and a white tee
I pray to God that they don't target me
But here's my plan
Racism exists because we want it to
And once we talk about it maybe we can own it too

To those that never got to walk away
Who lost their life won't see another day
Who family marching for a better day
I lift my hands up to the sky and pray
Nobody knows the struggle that you see
They want your life but don't know what it means
I pray for unity I pray for peace
I know that God is watching over me
To those that never got to walk away
Who lost their life won't see another day
Who family marching for a better day
I lift my hands up to the sky and pray
Nobody knows the struggle that you see
They want your life but don't know what it means
I pray for unity I pray for peace
I know that God is watching over me

You scared of it
The backlash the hate
We know history don't fade so slavery is our fate
Unless we all change
Freedom under one name
But we can't win if everybody not gone play the game
