born to a throne stronger than rome
but violent prone poor people zone
but its my home all i have known
where i got grown streets we would roam
out of the darkness i came the farthest
among the hardest survivin
learn form these streets it can be bleek
accept no defeet surrender retreat
(so we struggling) fighting to eat
(and we wondering) when we will be free
so we patiently wait for that faithfully day
its not far away but for now we say
when i get older i will be
stronger they'll call me freedom just
like a waving flag
and then it goes back
and then it goes back
and then it goes back
(ahhho ahhho ahhho)
so many wars settling scores
bring us promises leaving us poor
i heard them say love is the way
love is the answer thats what they say
but look how they treat us make us believers
we fight there battles then they deceive us
try to control us they couldn't hold us
cause we just move forward like buffalo soldiers
(but we strugglin) fighting to eat
(and we wonderingg) when we will be free
so we patiently wait for that faithfully day
its not far away but for now we say
when i get older i will be
stronger they'll call me freedom just
like a waving flag
and then it goes back
and then it goes back
and then it goes back
(ahhho ahhho ahhho)
when i get older i will be
stronger they'll call me freedom just
like a waving flag
and then it goes back
and then it goes back
and then it goes back
(ahhho ahhho ahhho)
and everybody will be singing it
and you and i will be singing it
and we all will be singing it
wo wah wo ah wo ah
