"FREE"
Written by Joe Gilder and Low Pro

You might think it’s better 
Than it was a couple hundred years ago 
I think you better take a look 
You don’t think you’d ever 
Do something to ever get yourself that low   You’ve lived forever by the book 
Where are you from? 
What were you born into? 
Things that have nothing to do with you

Free, land of the free, home of the brave 
At least that’s what they say 
But if we cross the tracks and see we can’t really be   Land of the free, home of the slave

You like an easy answer, 
So do I, but like has never been that way 
I think you known that all along 
The problem is much bigger than you think   Not something you can vote away 
We need to sing a different song 
Stop pointing fingers 
Start reaching out our hands 
Into the mess that we have made

Free, land of the free, home of the brave 
At least that’s what they say 
But if we cross the tracks and see we can’t really be   Land of the free, home of the slave

Can’t take away from all the men and women who gave they’re lives  
on the battlefield where the battles real but America’s a battle still 
Built off the backs of Black Brutus, blood-thirsty opportunists bid us to the highest consumer 
Monthly trips on slave ships, bodies shackled to the docks.  
Fast forward to present day they try to tell me it’s done stopped 
When they throw us in the slums, miseducate all our young, and they flood us with these drugs and these guns then judge what we become (I’m just saying) 
Let’s be specific if you want statistics. One out of fifteen is imprisoned  Coincidence is nonsense.  
I see the same pattern #blacklivesmatter 
I scream for my people until we’re treated equal

Free, land of the free, home of the brave 
At least that’s what they say 
But if we cross the tracks and see we can’t really be   Land of the free, home of the slave
