Born Free Lyrics - // / Y / - M.i.a.

Yeah, man made powers 

Stood like a tower, higher and higher, hello 

And the higher you go, you feel lower, oh 

I was close to the end 

Staying undercover, staying undercover 

With a nose to the ground, I found my sound 

Got myself an interview tomorrow 

I got myself a jacket for a dollar 

And my nails are chipped but I'm eager 

And the car doesn't work, so I'm stuck here 

Yeah, I don't wanna live for tomorrow, I push my life today 

I throw this in your face when I see ya, I got something to say 

I throw this shit in your face when I see ya 'cause I got something to say

I was born free, born free 

I was born free, born free 

Born free, born free 

Born free, born free 

You could try to find ways to be happier 

You might end up somewhere in Ethiopia 

You can think big with your idea 

You ain't never gonna find Utopia 

Take a bite out of life, make it snappier, yeah 

Ordinary gone super trippier 

So I check shit 'cause I'm lippier 

And split a Czech like Slovakia 

Yeah, I don't wanna live for tomorrow, I push my life today 

I throw this in your face when I see you 'cause I got something to say 

I throw this shit in your face when I see you 

'Cause I got something to say
