[Chorus: Block McCloud]
(Freedom) This is my only escape but I make
And I know y’all can relate
(Freedom) This is my only way out of this maze
And all of these problems I face
(Freedom) This is my fate, my love, and my [?]
The only thing I can believe in
(Freedom) This music is all I have to give to live
And this is the path to my freedom

[Verse 1: Sicknature]
Before the Snowgoons squad was build
Before better luck was revealed
Before getting props in the field from my productions with Bill
Before I tore off with some promotors, performances and posters
Before touring with La Coka
Before the various travels
Before my work with paz and the Pharaohs
I only had frustrations that I didn’t manage to channel
A rascal who looked for ways to escape from the lunacy
With great opportunity but impatiently usually
Too young and troubled, an obvious menace
I invited problems though I had to f**k off grimace
Society’s expectations left more room for insanity
Life was never met with horseshoes or rabbit feet
Then my brother bumped a tape with Run-DMC
My thoughts regained speed, my tongue became free
Bought a Public Enemy record and instantly wrote a rap
Felt it would take a whole nation of millions to hold me back
[Chorus: Block McCloud]
(Freedom) This is my only escape but I make
And I know y’all can relate
(Freedom) This is my only way out of this maze
And all of these problems I face
(Freedom) This is my fate, my love, and my [?]
The only thing I can believe in
(Freedom) This music is all I have to give to live
And this is the path to my freedom

[Verse 2: Snak the Ripper]
I used to put my headphones on and image a life
Better than the one that I had 'cause I was having to fight
Constantly within the darkness tryna stand in the light
But all that shit just disappeared when I got handed the mic
I used to sit in my room and play my guitar
Making mixtapes on cassette, who knew I’d make it this far
Listening to everything from Nas to Slayer and [?]
I was like every other kid but now they say I’m a star
I used to run around the town painting my name
Looking for some recognition in the taste of the fame
Just a poor kid numb, my face in the rain
They gave me shelter from the pain that runs through my veins
I used to second guess the work that I would create
Feel like the world is on my shoulders and I carry the weight
And now I do it for the fans 'cause they say they relate
Music is my therapy, this is my way to escape, yeah
[Chorus: Block McCloud]
(Freedom) This is my only escape but I make
And I know y’all can relate
(Freedom) This is my only way out of this maze
And all of these problems I face
(Freedom) This is my fate, my love, and my [?]
The only thing I can believe in
(Freedom) This music is all I have to give to live
And this is the path to my freedom

[Chorus: Block McCloud]
(Freedom) This is my only escape but I make
And I know y’all can relate
(Freedom) This is my only way out of this maze
And all of these problems I face
(Freedom) This is my fate, my love, and my [?]
The only thing I can believe in
(Freedom) This music is all I have to give to live
And this is the path to my freedom
