23. 2BeFree

I like to hang around in my town
conversate, dream and imaginate, I don't hate
just create what it is I do want
I got no time to fight - no need to fuss - nothin to flaunt
bikin all barefoot, with flowers in my hair
You may say "way gay" I say "don't care"
(Aw Yeah) So You do you dude and I'll do me see
and this is what it is to be free

finger combing the hair of my family my tribe
singin at the top of our lungs SO ALIVE!
WE OUTSIDE! the fire's spittin some sparks into the night
more afraid of mass media mindrape than skeeter bites
Maybe it will rain but that's allright
Makes music on the tops of our tents we snug tight
Some nights I click, click, click by the monitor light
But tonight I got Starlight and that feels right
(Right) So you do you dude and I'll do me see
and this is what it is to be free

Standin on a line with my sign
speakin my mind and if I'm wastin my time it's MY time
fools wanna ridicule with words we won't mention
they all "Why you protestin? they'll never pay attention."
and maybe I haven't stopped Iraq kids from dyin
but at least I still feel it, at least I'm still tryin
I'm not dead inside, for me a source of pride
like buildin my brain instead of pimpin my ride
(Aiight) But hey, you do you dude and I'll do me see
and this is what it is to be free
