Major Lazer
Get Free
Verse 1:
Man I just wanna be free
I don't need the school system try justify me
What job I'ma do
How much money I'ma make
Let me live my damn dreams I just wanna believe
I just wanna be free, but who gon CUT the chains?
Sharp words spill the real cause a ruptured vain
A smart guy to a dumb guy is just insane
Standing out like a white T with a mustard stain
And I'm going all in, kid with the hustle
Don't wanna see momma cryING from the struggle
Built like a muscle, hold my head high
All em dudes with the views only telling damn lies
I'm watchu can't find, not in encyclopedias
I'm not with the media, I'm not on Wikipedia
I don't got paparazzi, so damn I won't be feeding all
Who live off of celebrities to make they lives easier
But damn, I do wanna see the world
Meet a buncha people and find my dream girl
Take naps in the sky n, trips to Dubai with
Sounds about right I hope you concur
Yessir, I just wanna get free
I'm not the same the day you met me
Living like Uncle Phil, I used to be Jeffrey
But you won't just be, you gotta come and get free
Get. Free
[Hook]

Verse 2:
Im breaking out the box that they put me in
And I'm entering the lane that I should be in
Much love to the fam who done took me in
And RIP to the ppl that mistook me man
I'm not tryna be the best, but I don't need to fear
I'm just tryna be the voice these kids need to hear
Get free come open up you're mind & your eyes
Cause we all got a vision just don't see it clear
True
She wanna be a heroine
Just wanna save her momma from needles of heroin
Her father neglecting both of em
Claim he too tired from his job
Now she preaching on how she don't need a man
Now she balling out
(Look at me!)
Open up ya eyes and damn cause
(I just can't believe)
What this life is like at times when you take a look at
(What you've done to me)
I come from a place
Where there's no holding back
The tears run down ya face
But you don't look back
We look up and
When temptation keep hitting you up
And you got a girl for years, while she thinking you love her
You falling victim to these girls jiggling butts
You say you ain't giving it up
But you start to trust her yo
Thinking bout your girl back home, you really love her tho
Say you got a child on the way and that's the mother bro
But instead you choose to love another hoe
Pleasing
She go as quick as she just came, easy
But is it really worth the life you seem to be leaving?
Why we get a good thing just to throwaway?
Been gone for nights, now his wife he going home to lay
So he give her a burn, now look what you learned
Good girl & and child now they're forced to go away
The sad truth

Verse 3:
I'm free when I rhyme
So I'm free all the time
But you ain't see freedom if you ain't free in ya mind
Lift up to the sky, keep ya head held high
Somedays its gon rain, but really that's just life
Maybe this is the gift we're all requiring
A model of our lives to be inspiring
Don't tell me you think your perfect, you're nothing but a liar then
No one could stop the flames on ya pants but a fireman, damn

Damn
No one could stop the flames on ya pants but a fireman
Cause you's a liar man
Hey, hey, hey, hey
