[00:00:15] We could be free

[00:00:18] If we only knew we were slaves to the pains of each other

[00:00:22] One day I believe I'd learn

[00:00:27] To see my enemy as my brother

[00:00:30] Then we could be free truly

[00:00:35] And love could wash away our sorrows

[00:00:38] I'm not afraid to bleed

[00:00:41] If it means we'll make them better today not tomorrow

[00:00:48] One day I dream of telling my momma

[00:00:50] You ain't gotta work no more

[00:00:52] Same for my father born in Ghana down on that dirt road floor

[00:00:56] As far as he came I can't complain but pain is so subjective

[00:00:59] Spend so much time countin' issues I forget to count

[00:01:03] My blessings

[00:01:03] Watch my cousins back at home getting water out a well

[00:01:07] While I watch my brother stacking stone whippin' water by the scale

[00:01:11] Tryna' get a mill' on the other side

[00:01:13] They ain't got a meal we don't recognize we in heaven

[00:01:15] So we think we live in hell

[00:01:17] It's been getting kinda hard to tell

[00:01:19] But

[00:01:19] Sometimes I wake up and I look up at the sky

[00:01:23] Asking why I'm alive when the realest n**gas died

[00:01:27] And my pride won't let me give up lord as hard as I try

[00:01:31] In those times I try to remember

[00:01:34] That we could be free

[00:01:38] If we only knew we were slaves to the pains of each other

[00:01:42] One day I believe I'd learn

[00:01:47] To see my enemy as my brother

[00:01:50] Then we could be free truly

[00:01:55] And love could wash away our sorrows

[00:01:58] I'm not afraid to bleed

[00:02:01] If it means we'll make them better today not tomorrow

[00:02:19] We make a better today not tomorrow

[00:02:24] I don't want to wait for the afterlife

[00:02:25] I don't want a vigil by candle light

[00:02:27] I don't want to be the new sacrifice

[00:02:29] I don't want to turn into a poltergeist

[00:02:31] Be a ghost at night full of broken dreams

[00:02:33] Momma cryin' at an open casket

[00:02:35] Cold as ice in a suit 3 piece

[00:02:37] All dressed up for Sunday ma**es

[00:02:39] Pastor said put faith in god

[00:02:41] But faith alone can't make things right

[00:02:43] Who the f**k is you to patronize

[00:02:45] Somebody's son whose daddy died

[00:02:48] Why they flood baton rouge

[00:02:49] Why the city singing Alton's blues

[00:02:51] Why why why why

[00:02:53] I feel like Jadakiss every time I watch the news

[00:02:55] What the f**k I got to lose

[00:02:57] So I'm down to bleed if it means things improve

[00:02:59] You fools saying all lives matter

[00:03:01] But it's black lives you refuse include

[00:03:03] Blocked from the polls

[00:03:04] Locked in the hood trying to stop you from voting and stop you from growing

[00:03:07] And cops keep blowing and blowing

[00:03:09] Keep black people locked into cotton

[00:03:10] They don't want you to own but

[00:03:12] Sometimes I wake up and I look up in the sky

[00:03:15] Asking why I survived all the days that I could have died

[00:03:19] Who am I in my place

[00:03:21] To contemplate suicide

[00:03:23] In those times I try to remember

[00:03:26] That we could be free truly

[00:03:31] If we'd only knew we were slaves to the pains of each other

[00:03:34] But I believe I'd learn

[00:03:39] To see my enemy as my brother

[00:03:42] Then we could be free truly

[00:03:47] And we could wash away our sorrows

[00:03:50] I'm not afraid to bleed if it means

[00:03:55] We'll make them better today not tomorrow

[00:04:01] Somebody

[00:04:03] Make my enemy my brother

[00:04:09] Woah oh oh oh

[00:04:11] Make better today not tomorrow

[00:04:35] Make my enemy my brother
