Freedom Songtext
von Akon

Everything I have, everything I own
All my mistakes man you already know
I wanna be free
I wanna be free (Konvict)


From Senegal West Africa
To St. Louis, Missouri
Thanks to Katherine Dunham
For giving my pops his glory
He came down with his drum
And a dream to change the world
In a free uplifting world
And that′s all he ever want
Mom came a little after
Gave birth to my brother
Then all of the pressure
Made em' fight one another
See, the pain would never last
Did the best with what they had
He knew the world was out for grabs
And he searched to find his

Freedom
Freedom
Freedom (Oh)
Freedom
Everything I have, everything I own
All my mistakes fam, you already know
I wanna be free, I wanna be free
So I search to find my (find my)

Freedom
Freedom (Oh yeah)
Freedom
Freedom
Everything I have, everything I own
All my mistakes girl, you already know
I wanna be free, I wanna be free, yeah


As a kid I never knew
I′d have to hustle just to make it through
So I found myself skipping school
'Cause the girls don't think I′m cool
And because of that I didn′t care
Whether or not I went to jail
I just wanna be treated fair
'Cause that′s all I ever knew
Tellin' me I need to slow down
′Cause everybody in the whole town
'Cause they know how I get down
Foreigner from another town
Can you believe we still around?
After so many hit the ground
And we ain′t gon' stop now
Until we get that

Freedom (ooohh)
Freedom (oohhh)
Freedom (oh)
Freedom
Everything I have (have), everything I own (own)
All my mistakes fam, you already know (yea)
I wanna be free, (free) I wanna be free (free)
Won't stop till I find my

Freedom (my freedom)
Freedom (my freedom)
Freedom (oh)
Freedom
Everything I have, (have) everything I own, (own)
All my mistakes girl, you already know (yea)
I wanna be free (free), I wanna be free, yeah

If you wanna be free, and the land is drug-free
Put your hands up (ay), put your hands up (ay)
If you wanna be free, from all your misery
Put your hands up (ay), put your hands up (ay)
If you wanna be free, with plenty money
Put your hands up (ay), put your hands up (ay)
If you wanna be free, just praise G-O-D
Put your hands up (ay), put your hands up (ay)

Freedom (ohh)
Freedom (Freedom)
Freedom (ooh)
Freedom
Everything I have, everything I own
All my mistakes girl you already know
I wanna be free (wanna be free), I wanna be free (wanna be free, yea)
