[Intro]
Yeah, ay
Ay, 2000 EST
Yeah, O-C-O-E-E
Yeah, ay
[Verse 1]
I'm the definition of a free man walking
Now I'm moving cautious, 'cause I know it cost me a lot
Uh, lost it all, it made me feel nauseous
I guess that's the price that you pay when you get out that bondage
My soul was tied like a knot up on a shoelace
Lied so many times I had forgotten how the truth tastes
Life like a fiasco, was movin' just like Lupe
My heart was in a cast, but my mind was on that D’Ussé
Finessin' clothes just to wear it for the school day
We was taking kicks just to ball, like it's 2K
Was hittin' licks so they could tell us we was cool J
For they approval, I was doing what fool say
Wantin' my neck and wrist on water, like a pool day
I wanted Penny Proud to see me in them cool grays
Got outta school, no one around, not even two names
Can't name a song that stuck around
[Pre-Chorus]
Lord, thank You for this healing, 'cause You brought me out
I was tryna be the trending topic to be talked about
I was tryna be the main attraction 'til you talked me down
Now I live to give the glory to the One who walked it out
[Chorus]
I'm the definition of a free man, Morgan
Since G-O-D went and gave me the keys, no organ
Had to dive deep in the well, no Tauren
I was locked up 'til He crossed, like Jordan
I'm the definition of a free man, Morgan
Since G-O-D went and gave me the keys, no organ
Had to dive deep in the well, no Tauren
I was locked up 'til He crossed, like Jordan
[Verse 2]
I'm the definition of a free man talkin'
Watch my words often, I know it cost me a lot, yeah
Words lead to life or the coffin
I guess that's the price that you pay when you gain more knowledge
Studied the Word like a test comin' up in college
You ever heard common sense ain't common
You could turn a verb to a bullet or a promise
Speak life, speak death, you only got two options
Everything you say, it comes around, goes around
That's why I never play with a verb or a noun
Power in the Name, so I gotta say it loud
Chains breakin' when I speak, you could never keep me bound
[Pre-Chorus]
Thank You for this healing, 'cause You brought me out
I was tryna be the trending topic to be talked about
I was tryna be the main attraction 'til you talked me down
Now I live to give the glory to the One who walked it out
[Chorus]
I'm the definition of a free man, Morgan
Since G-O-D went and gave me the keys, no organ
Had to dive deep in the well, no Tauren
I was locked up 'til He crossed, like Jordan
I'm the definition of a free man, Morgan
Since G-O-D went and gave me the keys, no organ
Had to dive deep in the well, no Tauren
I was locked up 'til He crossed, like Jordan
