Yeah
When they ask me
If I had something to sayLet me explain
I stepped on the scale had my mind in a twirl
And realized I was carrying the weight of the world
Who else would bear the burden
And give the shirt on their back rejuvenate the streets and rehabilitate rap
You see these minds is trapped and I can see where they at
Living in these fantasies that′s about to collapse
I see a breach in their heart when I'm reaching their heart
And grab ′em before more ignorance starts
To kill our communities' reign and true abilities remain us?
That pictures the same, most of y'all feelin′ me?
The rest of y′all not 'cause you′re missing the point
Tryna blow up the spot and feel the slide of a new way slave
It's a shame how our people behave
Got our roots turning a worm and graves
Gotta walk on the path that they pave
I′m at the first or the last of the braves
So break chains
Well come to think about it, I-I, I want to get free and
Ease my mind, but I just can't get away
And come to think about it, I-I, I want to get free and
Ease my mind, but we gotta find a better way
Yo, what up, kinfolk? How you been, though?
Seems like the world gon′ all up in smoke
I can't complain, I maintain
I make the moves I gotta get paid, know what I'm talkin′ ′bout?
I'm ′bout it, yep, yeah, your boy's doubted
I got it together now, I′m hot so don't doubt it
Shut down on the clowns when I shout it
Shout, shout, let it all out
It′s the F-A-T, bitch, ask about it
Know what I'm sayin'?
′Cause I′m knee smashin', Tre be mashin′
Sierra singing on the hook with that passion like
You know sometimes when you're surrounded around
A lot of haters, a lot of negative, gotta get away from the negativity
Can′t nobody let, let nobody stomp your light out
Stomp your sign, take away your beauty
Well come to think about it, I-I, I want to get free and
Ease my mind, but I just can't get away
And come to think about it, I-I, I want to get free and
Ease my mind, but we gotta find a better way
I have no clue of what you go through
I don′t know how you do what you do
But you must been blessed with the strength to deal with the stress
The way you separate yourself from the rest is so fresh and, yes
You give 'em all somethin' to talk about
They all need somethin′ to talk about, might as well be you
The people wanna see what you′re all about
And see if you're gonna give it your all amount, that′s all that counts
I wonder how it feels to be you
I wonder how it feels to be you
I wonder how it feels to be you
I wonder how it feels to be you
I wonder, I wonder how it feels
Well come to think about it, I-I, I want to, get free and
Ease my mind, but I just can't get away
And come to think about it, I-I, I want to, get free and
Ease my mind, but we gotta find a better way
Well come to think about it, I-I, I want to, get free and
Ease my mind, but I just can′t get away
And come to think about it, I-I, I want to, get free and
Ease my mind, but we gotta find a better way
Huh, yeah, jazz
What more can I say, man
A lot of our music, all of our early stuff
All this stuff we doin' now as a matter a fact came from jazz
Wes Montgomery, Cal Tjader, Coltrane
It′s just dope, man because now
In a new and improved 2008 version
We got artists that come over here to get love
Just like the jazz cazz did back in the day
It's just, it's just how it is man
I get inspired, I get inspired by all of that man
All of the ones that came before us
That′s what allows us to do what we do today
So for all of those whose passed away
Ashay, ashay, ashay, ashay, ashay, ashay
