What’s Free? (Freestyle)
What’s free to you?
A Kanye tweet or two?
Is freedom the goal or the vehicle?
Is freedom feasible if they say they free but they ain't paid the fee to be?
We believe in dudes, who am I to judge?
I make opinions in the land built from mud on the backs of people who we ain't even give no freedom to
Where sadly my body’s still more free here too
Mind got a better chance but that ain't guaranteed so for me I guess free is truth
But sometimes free for me is just beers on you
On the C train wit a free brain from a brown bag tryna act bad while I’m pre-fame
Keepin me sane, wearin hip hop wherever I go and try not be another bleach stain
Ya’ll don’t hear me
These guys try and return swags man, you’re wild
Rappers wantin free rides so they quick to hoppin turnstiles
I been an absurd child since our children freedom tunnels
Only real New Yorkers know that reference, shit, we was trouble
But one time was enough for a lot of things
Homie sang to me bout freedom but you look locked in all those chains and rings
Tell me, would you risk your freedom to be free?
Most us ain't even willin to risk our false identity and that be includin me
I ain't holier than thou, debt be growin in the thousands, got the loneliest of smiles
It’s Craft, I give a pound and dash, I’ll be leavin
Can catch me somewhere trapped in my mind, chasin freedom
