[Intro/Outro]
Can I be free
[Hook]
Can I be free, without police
Tryna k** me, cause all they see
Is a n***a, is a n***a
But I'm more than just a n***a
So before you put your finger on that trigger
Can your first take a mental picture (x2)
[Verse 1]
Take a look in my eyes, tell me what you see
Guess it don't matter, but the color of my blood splatter is the same as yours, we both bleed
So I plead, that before you take me
Give me time with my family
Ay momma don't cry, if you don't know here's the reason why
I knew I would die, by the hand of a regular guy
With a badge and uniform
Cops not discriminating or hating is like a unicorn
Something that don't exist
If I cooperate they'll say that I resist
Slap them cuffs on wrist, and give the pavement a kiss
Hope they don't do me like Eric gardner or mike brown, will I be missed
Or will I fade to the mist and be added to the list
Of the casualties due to the idea that we shouldn't exist
So I ask can I be free
They shoot us because they can't hang us from a tree
[Hook]
