[Pre-Hook/Chorus]
I just wanna be free, yeah
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
I just wanna be free, yeah
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
[Hook/Chorus]
Maybe I’m just like my brother
He’s never satisfied
Why do we shoot up each other?
This is what it sounds like
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
[Verse 1]
Can’t explain the pain, all I know is chains
All I know is whips, and all I know is gang, gang, gang, gang
Don’t even know my name, and the place from what you came
N----s love to talk, but n----s never change
Same thing, same faces on the news, this is nothing new
This is what we knew, still hanging by the noose
It’s written, it’s proof, time to face the truth
N----s never wanna execute, n----s only make excuses
[Pre-Hook/Chorus]
I just wanna be free, yeah
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
I just wanna be free, yeah
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
[Hook/Chorus]
Maybe I’m just like my brother
He’s never satisfied
Why do we shoot up each other?
This is what it sounds like
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
[Verse 2]
Welcome to the high plane, I’m so fly
Won’t say my designer’s name, know why?
Broke gunners in the wing, s--t ain’t been the same
Now we honor Jenner, James, and the ring
Sweet Jesus, I pray for you non-believers
They say that you never see us
Turn around, sing Pledge of Allegiance
Nothing went with this world
What are we to do with the story
They gotta never witness your true ways
Better play victims or new slaves
What the hell is with them kids these days?
Kids with guns, the guerillas gon’ bang
Treat us like animals in this race
Put that banana clip in your face
So you wash your day problems away
I don’t plan on doing laundry today
What’s 50 bands to a man like me?
There’s this, but your whole life just trynna play s--t fair
Can’t you see or is you blind?
Screen advertise corrupt your mind
Fill that TVs with so many lies
So many die overtime, hold so many lies, uh
[Hook/Chorus]
Maybe I’m just like my brother
He’s never satisfied
Why do we shoot up each other?
This is what it sounds like
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
When the thugs cry
[Pre-Hook/Chorus]
I just wanna be free, yeah
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
I just wanna be free, yeah
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
Just wanna be, just wanna be
[Hook/Chorus]
Maybe I’m just like my brother
He’s never satisfied
Why do we shoot up each other?
This is what it sounds like
When the thugs cry
