[Intro: Sample]

[Hook: Jay Cabassa]
Home of the Brave, Land of the Free
Why do I feel so enslaved to all this misery
I feel your love, I see your peace
I wait for the day you return to come and rescue me
Home of the Brave, Land of the Free
Why do I feel so enslaved to all this misery
I feel your love, I see your peace
I wait for the day you return to come and rescue me

[Verse 1: Eshon Burgundy]
I feel the breeze, I'm not under control of the beast
I'm one with my soul, I live on the globe
Still know what it is to be free
Yeah, I still got love for police
But most don't have no love for me
My color say something about me that I wouldn't
Necessarily say about me, but that's just me
They say I deserve to die, and maybe I be asking for it
I should have had on more than a white tee
That's why they put the flashes on it
Probably should have combed my hair
My skin should have been a little more fair
Should have told them that I knew my rights
But who am I to have a right to know
I must have fit the composite
Even though facts are absent from their logic
They pulled me over in California
Saying they smell the suspicious aroma
And I ain't have nothing on me
My so-called protector disrespectful
What's the benefit of lying on me, to my face
Gun on waist, he probably wanted a chase
But see I don't run, nah, God protects me
And if He lets me die I'm His son
And for that I testify Lord please bless the guy
Oh, this peace talk, I have a dream talk
Martin Luther King talk and I'm royalty this how a king walk
Let's March, Walk in my shoes
Let me give you the blues, let you feel my pain
Can you stand the rain can we make a truce
You got hate for me, huh, oh I got hope for you
Yeah yeah, 400 years, 400 years, ain't this overdue
Must be living a dream
This world probably never get better
It probably only get worse as long as we are under the curse
'Cause ain't no good in mankind, nah
It's only good in Yah, oh, so my question for you, yeah
Is who you think in charge?
That's rhetorical and it ain't you
Even though you think you are, Triple K everywhere
Y'all masked up, I don't know who you are
It's no excuse, I'm holy and true
Spill my blood you gon' to answer to God
They killed my family, Police took my blood
Now he in the earth, my faith still undisturbed
Yeah, but it still feel crazy
My grandmother just lost her baby
I never get used to the feeling
And it's the one in the blue that's the villain
He was on his car calling for help
Who knew that help was going to pull up and kill him
I called my mother, she losing her ceiling
That was her brother, why he had to suffer
That was her question, Lord I'm right at you for the blessing
Would you please give up the healing?
I called my mother, she losing her ceiling
That was her brother, why he had to suffer
That was her question, Lord I'm right at you for the blessing
Would you please give up the healing?
Oh Lord
[Refrain: Jay Cabassa]
They seem so desperate to have me hate you
Nah, nah, nah, nah, I refuse to be unfaithful
I'm not interested in being unstable
Much rather be known as the one that forgave you
Because I know that
If you want to love you going to find it
If you want to love you going to find it
If you want to love you going to find it
If you want to love you going to find it
