Mekhi Phife - Free? lyrics

[Mekhi Phife]: Intro Yea yea yea, uh , I heard this beat way before Kendrick Lamar… I'm just not famous yet So it seems… yea We supposed to get beat down and just succumb to this pressure? No I'm descended of kings thats just one up my blessings, Why you so afraid of me, for too long you hated me, but you made me this way you made me this way ain't no saving me, pay us millions to entertain you best watch you say to me Fact just came to me, that you came from me, tryna reverse these roles? Is you tryna play with me ? White on white can't make no black baby, but black on black sure deliver the fair skin safely Ain't no fair how you wanna (eh)lim-i-nate me, say pay your fare and do as you told , put a gun to my head when you think I am losing control Better shoot quick, cause I'm writing a new script, cause you ain't gone bring me here then tell I'm that I'm the nuisance, said you ain't gone bring me fear and spread lies on Fox News, k** my people dead, should be ashamed that you dropped j**els That's why we ain't ashamed.. to go cop tools, drop dudes cause my life don't matter why should I care that I shot you ? and I got it, I got it, man i swear ima prophet, middle name Elijah because of Elijah Muhammad , so I'm never in the middle of some rumors or some gossip, I am never second fiddle, I dream lucid I live honest And I.. . promise I'm just tryna keep it respectful , race is just white and black you respect me and I respect you But see I ain't gone respect you … I guess it's black thing I ain't gone protect you… I guess it's a white thing Gotta find someone to sell to … I guess it's a black thing Make sure I arrest you… I guess it's a white thing Get on my knees and kiss ya feet.. I guess it's a black thing And you gone listen to me … I guess it's a white thing You are under me long as you DARK as some night things, In the palm of my hand .. something just like strings, this is my world I am higher than flight thangs Yea ya know.. higher than flight thangs Have a dream , I have a dream, and that's all it'll ever be…. Damn That's what they are telling me… damn That's all I really can see.. damn On the news and on the tv .. Everywhere I go I see my people in chains… I'm wondering … When Will I Be FREE? When will I be free-e, when will I be…(Gunshot)
