Anderson Paak - Liberation lyrics

[Intro: Ronald Reagan] "...But only here, did that little band of men so advanced beyond their time That the world has never seen their like since Evolve the idea that you and I Have within ourselves the God-given right And the ability to determine our own destiny But freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction (Begins to play in background) We didn't pa** it on to our children in the bloodstream The only way they can inherit the freedom we have known is if we fight for it, protect it, defend it And then hand it to them With the well thought lessons of how they in their lifetime must do the same And if you and I don't do this Then you and I may well spend our sunset years telling our children, and our children's children what it once was like in America when men were free." [Bridge: SiR + Anderson .Paak] Say you wanna be free, that'll cost you Go ahead and make an offer Speak now or hold your peace Gamblin' with the lot, they're playing for keeps Are you ready to lose? Can you win if you don't hold any?

(I just saw you as a fan) Next summer she was running with Dwayne Fresh n***a' with the new J's He never went to cla**, but he stayed paid And he stayed laid So I diverted from the safe way And you can still see the chip on my shoulder But I refuse to live life like a robot, it's a new day In short story, shorter, you gon' do what you told her Or you'll influence the culture, it's either hot or it's colder Run with us, or get ran over, Drumhedz [Outro: Ronald Reagan] The only way they can inherit the freedom we have known Is if we fight for it, protect it, defend it And then hand it to them With the well thought lessons of how they in their lifetime must do the same And If you and I don't...
