Emancipa Proclima Lyrics - Singles - Fifteen

When I was only five years old 

They said to do just what you're told 

And maybe when you grow up 

Maybe we'll let you make your own choices...but not now 

They said nothing in life is free 

And so there ain't no use in dreaming 

Now tell me what you want to be 

We'll give you choices 1 thru 915 

I think I know what I want to be now mama 

I'm gonna be the man who tears down slavery 

I know it's not in the right set of choices 

But I think it's the right thing for me 

See I believe we're all created free people 

And anything less than that just ain't the same 

(Lynard Skynard Break) 

Emancipation Proclamation 

Now the black mans free to join the white mans slavery 

Wages and terrorism are one in the same 

Or are we afraid of what it is we really want to be 

And the importance of our military industry is nothing 

And the importance of our economy is nothing 

And the importance of our self-deceptive convenience is nothing 

And the importance of all our ists and isms are nothing 

And it cares not for me, cares not for you 

Cares for nothing but the selfish game 

That tears us from one another 

And it means nothing
