Freedom
I was told that a life has no price, you see
But the hate in your eyes put a price on me
If the natives were slain for your liberty
Please explain what you mean "The Land Of the free"
Oh say can you see
But can you really see?
What does freedom really mean?
'Cause what I've been sold ain't what I believe
Maybe freedom ain't for me
"Cause what I've been shown ain't what I can see
Uh
Been darker days since election day (election day)
Rose colors seem to fade away
The white sheets coming out to play
Rhis backwards, oh
'63 I thought my chains were broken and released
But what about my brothers in penitentiaries?
We'll be floating in oceans before we notice
We're headed for disaster
Oh say can you see
But can you really see?
What does freedom really mean?
'Cause what I've been sold, ain't what I believe
Maybe freedom ain't for me
'Cause what I've been shown, ain't what I can see
We've got
One nation
Under God
Indivisible
We'll be washed away
If we're complacent (if we're complacent)
And divided (And divided)
If we're invisible
We have to ask ourselves
What does freedom mean to me?
Is what I've been sold what I believe
'Cause what I've been shown ain't what I can see
(Our brothers are bleeding, sisters are bleeding, oh)
Maybe freedom ain't for me (Don't you know better?)
'Cause what I've been shown (I know we want better)
Ain't what I can see (whoa)
It ain't what I can see
It ain't what I can see
But the hate in your eyes put a price on me
If the natives were slain for your liberty
Please explain what you mean "The Land Of the free"
Oh say can you see
But can you really see?
What does freedom really mean?
'Cause what I've been sold ain't what I believe
Maybe freedom ain't for me
"Cause what I've been shown ain't what I can see
Uh
Been darker days since election day (election day)
Rose colors seem to fade away
The white sheets coming out to play
Rhis backwards, oh
'63 I thought my chains were broken and released
But what about my brothers in penitentiaries?
We'll be floating in oceans before we notice
We're headed for disaster
Oh say can you see
But can you really see?
What does freedom really mean?
'Cause what I've been sold, ain't what I believe
Maybe freedom ain't for me
'Cause what I've been shown, ain't what I can see
We've got
One nation
Under God
Indivisible
We'll be washed away
If we're complacent (if we're complacent)
And divided (And divided)
If we're invisible

Maybe freedom ain't for me (Don't you know better?)
'Cause what I've been shown (I know we want better)
Ain't what I can see (whoa)
It ain't what I can see
It ain't what I can see
