Let Freedom Reign Lyrics - Black Thought

Oh, American citizen, come, collect your freedom 

No matter what you're living in, no more giving in 

Oh, American citizen, come, collect your freedom 

No matter what you're living in, it's time to win 

Keep us in the four walls of our church, we'll be quiet 

Most of us aren't even Democratic or Republic 

Can and by coincidence we love the elected 

Until the detected of being human 

American falls, minorities lose war 

But if we unite we would have won the war 

On poverty, war on drugs 

War on medicate, war on love

Freedom isn't given, it is taken 

Freedom isn't free, it's earned 

Not, no, it's learned 

Been hung and burned 

Yet rest in peace, resurrected plea 

This ain't black or white, it's gray 

This is not about my face 

Most of us don't know what to say 

Right from wrong or free from slaves 

Do you wanna be free or do you wanna go down 

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be free 

Do you wanna be free or do you wanna go down 

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be free 

America, the beautiful, suspect as usual 

Liberty and death, give me freedom on my funeral 

I walk across the planet with the steps of a giant 

My rhymes the gap between religion and science 

Photos 

'Cause my evidence is spiritual 

I know my sheer presence is a miracle 

I wasn't supposed to be here to share with you 

But here I am, standing with my chest out 

I take my place in history, I never get left out 

You stressed out and scared 

So it's causing you to act hard 

Freedom ain't free, gotta put it on my black card 

My passport claim, I'm an American citizen 

The constitution said I'm three fifths 

I'm not a semi and gorilla 

Make my songs stronger than the horn of Gideon 

Truth is [Incomprehensible] 

Gave the native people syphilis 

Consider this, Christopher Columbus 

Ain't know where he was goin' 

So let's stop calling our native brothers Indians 

Do you wanna be free or do you wanna go down 

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be free 

Do you wanna be free or do you wanna go down 

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be free 

We were carried here in shackles from the homelands 

Broom chop, chain locked, brain washed, programmed 

Time's change, freedom reigns, I'm a grown man 

Holding the future in the palms of my own hands 

In this world, the coonery and tomfoolery 

All I'm trying to do is stay true to my community 

The daily news ain't the only thing that's schooling me 

Watching these haters operating with impunity 

This journey dollar signs, black and white collar crimes 

Running out of time, out of sight, out of mind 

It gets realer and it's real in Palestine 

Troubles of the world start to seem intertwined 

War criminals, conflict minerals 

Pillagers are coming home, five star generals 

Telling lies in press conferences and interviews 

I'm trying to take back the power 

'Cause it's been abused 

Do you wanna be free or do you wanna go down 

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be free 

Do you wanna be free or do you wanna go down 

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be free 

I'm just black in America 

I'm not Afro-American 

Just a passive American 

Making belief I'm better than 

What we've been, what we've been 

I said, I'm just black in America 

I'm not Afro-American 

Just a passive American 

Making belief I'm better than 

What we've been, what we've been
