Free Lyrics - Singles - Geto Boys

Intro: 

[willie d] 

Geto boys 

(g.b.)'98 

We gonna set this shit straight, belive that 

Don't you wish sometimes you can be free 

Free from incarceration 

Free from paying them bills 

Free to come and go when ya feel 

Most of all, free from them haters 

Verse 1: 

[willie d] 

So many problems that exist in my world today 

When I'm deceased, I want my little baby girl to say 

That he was real 

He loved me with all his heart 

He loved mama too 

Even though they sometimes fought 

A young nigga in the ghetto 

With plenty of dreams 

Surrounded by the police 

And many of fiends 

At 13 started mobbin' 

14 started robbin' 

It's hard to have morals and values 

When you're starvin' 

Abused, misused, and plus a bad dresser 

Nobody ever told me I was special 

I put a gang of tears in my mamma's eyes 

But she died 

Before I got a chance to apologize 

It hurts to see my baby sister feeling the pain 

It hurts to see my baby brother still in the game 

Ain't nothin' change but my finances 

I still be stressed 

All these motherfucking worries got a nigga depressed 

I'm just tired 

Every night, I pray to jesus, rescue me 

>from the poverty, hate, racism and diseases 

So the lord said 

He prepared a place for me 

And when he do that 

I'ma be free, yeah 

Chorus: 

I wanna be free 

No more player hater 

I gotta be free 

Verse 2: 

[scarface] 

Now as I walk around in my drawers 

Outside smoking weed while I scratch my balls 

I'm reminsing on my homies who been lock tight 

Or got light 

Behind trying to feed their family one night 

It's not right 

Suppose you watch your mamma suffer 

Cause ain't another 

Her kids trying they off they ass 

It's gettin' rougher and tougher 

By all means nigga get your cream 

Stop storming what they calling this american dream 

And why you looking up for a role model 

You be your model 

Look who we follow 

Niggas forgot about the problem 

And single parent upbringings 

We doing bad on our ass 

Nigga fuck singing 

How you gonna tell me to keep it positive 

And growing up I didn't have a pop to give 

So these mother fucking streets is where I gots to live 

Fuck what you saying 'bout me 

I'm sittin'on a couple g's and smoking weed 

I'm free 

Chorus: 

I wanna be free 

No more player hater 

I gotta be free 

I wanna be free 

Gettin' tired of waitin' 

I gotta be free 

Verse 3: 

[willie d] 

Nobody understands me but me 

It used to bother me at first 

But now my conscience is free 

I ask the lord to give me strength 

And bless the hood 

And keep these fake motherfuckers out my life for good 

Knock on wood 

I'm still here through all these trials and tribulations 

Tryin' to make it 

Shit, a lot of niggas couldn't take it 

My girls hate it 

When I go to clubs and stay out late 

She think I'm fucking around with hoes 

Gimme a break 

Get off my case 

Can I be committed to you 

And ride 'round without feelin' tied down 

Damn girl, I catch enough hell on the streets 

When I come home 

I want some tender lovin' and peace 

No one can take your place, you my ace 

I dig your jealously boo 

But sometimes I need my space 

I keep you laced 

Like you won the lottery see 

But God damn I gotta be free 

Chorus:(2x) 

I wanna be free 

No more player hater 

I gotta be free 

I wanna be free 

Gettin' tired of waitin' 

I gotta be free
