about

The freedoms our forefathers died defending are currently being ignored. Inalienable rights, granted by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, are abused and disregarded by the same government and systems that created the laws.

This prompted us to ask questions:

“Where are our freedoms and liberties?”
“How is racism still so prevalent?”
“Are we really innocent until proven guilty?”
“Is the American Dream still real?”

We ask it now of others. What is the America you want for your children?

lyrics

Three times behind bars for somethin’ I didn’t do.

Fuck the system and corrupt cops behind blue.

You wanna fuck with me? I will expose you.

Join me in the chain gang. They gonna get at you.

Stuck me in a cage.

Send me in a rage.

Got me locked down for days.

Now I’m facing the DA.

Only white man in the tombs.

I’m considered a goon.

All my boys around me,

So what the hell did they all do?

What you want America?

Who’s Free?

Do you think that you’ll be safe?

Tell me.

Take your blinders off and soon,

you’ll see.

This isn’t the way it should be.

Are you free America?

Ex-wife in the streets, blowin’ a cop on her knees,

But she don’t swallow, and I won’t take a plea.

She ain’t droppin’ the charges and I’m bout to deploy.

Keep the crib and toys I just wanna see my boys.

But you can have it all, the home and the cash.

Just leave me with my balls, and you can kiss my ass.

Had enough of your shit the deceit and the lies,

But you’ll never keep my kids cuz they’re not the prize.

What you want America?

Who’s Free?

Do you think that you’ll be safe?

Tell me.

Take your blinders off and soon,

you’ll see.

This isn’t the way it should be.

Are you free America?

Never thought it could happen but why am I not surprised?

Got this orange politician be spewing hatred and lies.

I see put got your suit on with your blue and red ties.

Your latest tabloids and headlines,

racism ain’t died.

But it’s working so perfectly, fuckery and the trickery,

Elephants and the donkeys be perpetratin’ the bigotry.

They gone get sick of me cuz the system so corrupt.

But they won’t take me quietly I’ll never shut the fuck up.

Another day, another sheet, another mama crying.

No love, you think I wanna save private ryan?

Step into my world, college was a light breeze.

Then they ship you to the hood like a white tee.

Child of the ghetto, no job but they know.

Want us to lose hope, they want us to sell dope.

Papa did fifteen, still won’t let him recover.

The system is a bitch, so yeah I put on a rubber.

Talk to me about unity.

You said you want the truth, that’s what I’ma bring to you.

Talk to me about unity.

Mixed fists assemble, make fists assemble.

Talk to me about unity.

You want your freedom before you go’n see him.

Talk to me about unity.

You want your freedom before you go’n see him.

What you want America?

Who’s Free?

Do you think that you’ll be safe?

Tell me.

Take your blinders off and soon,

you’ll see.

This isn’t the way it should be.

Are you free America?
