[ar:k'naan] |
| [00:00.00] |
When I get older |
| [00:01.750] |
I will be stronger |
| [00:03.324] |
They'll call me freedom |
| [00:05.51] |
Just like a wavin'flag |
| [00:10.150] |
When I get older |
| [00:11.534] |
I will be stronger |
| [00:13.106] |
They'll call me freedom |
| [00:14.679] |
Just like a wavin'flag |
| [00:16.755] |
And then it goes back |
| [00:18.392] |
And then it goes back |
| [00:19.966] |
And then it goes back |
| [00:22.853] |
Born to a throne |
| [00:24.237] |
Stronger than Rome |
| [00:25.747] |
But violent prone |
| [00:27.322] |
Poor people zone |
| [00:28.959] |
But its my home |
| [00:30.467] |
All I have known |
| [00:32.43] |
Where I got grown |
| [00:33.674] |
Streets we would roam |
| [00:35.184] |
Out of the darkness |
| [00:36.730] |
I came the farthest |
| [00:38.303] |
Among the hardest |
| [00:39.940] |
Survival |
| [00:41.700] |
Learned from these streets |
| [00:43.148] |
They can be bleak |
| [00:44.658] |
Accept no defeat |
| [00:46.116] |
Surrender retreat |
| [00:47.689] |
So we struggling |
| [00:49.388] |
Fighting to eat |
| [00:50.819] |
And we wondering |
| [00:52.456] |
When we'll be free |
| [00:54.92] |
So we patiently wait |
| [00:55.541] |
For that fateful day |
| [00:57.112] |
It's not far away |
| [00:58.813] |
But for now we say |
| [01:00.449] |
When I get older |
| [01:02.19] |
I will be stronger |
| [01:03.537] |
They'll call me freedom |
| [01:05.166] |
Just like a wavin'flag |
| [01:07.356] |
And then it goes back |
| [01:08.990] |
And then it goes back |
| [01:10.438] |
And then it goes back |
| [01:13.58] |
So many wars |
| [01:14.522] |
Settling scores |
| [01:15.403] |
Bringing us promises |
| [01:17.604] |
Leaving us poor |
| [01:19.367] |
I heard them say |
| [01:20.814] |
Love is the way |
| [01:22.451] |
Love is the answer |
| [01:24.63] |
That's what they say |
| [01:25.698] |
But look how they treat us |
| [01:27.116] |
Make us believers |
| [01:28.816] |
We fight their battles |
| [01:30.390] |
Then they deceive us |
| [01:32.26] |
Try to control us |
| [01:33.600] |
They couldn't hold us |
| [01:35.133] |
But we just move forward |
| [01:36.771] |
Like Buffalo Soldiers |
| [01:38.282] |
But we struggling |
| [01:39.780] |
Fighting to eat |
| [01:41.211] |
And we wondering |
| [01:43.34] |
When we'll be free |
| [01:44.609] |
So we patiently wait |
| [01:46.119] |
For that fateful day |
| [01:47.754] |
It's not far away |
| [01:49.74] |
But for now we say |
| [01:50.961] |
When I get older |
| [01:52.536] |
I will be stronger |
| [01:54.47] |
They'll call me freedom |
| [01:55.680] |
Just like a wavin'flag |
| [01:57.694] |
And then it goes back |
| [01:59.458] |
And then it goes back |
| [02:00.966] |
And then it goes back |
| [02:02.676] |
And then it goes |
| [02:03.532] |
When I get older |
| [02:05.42] |
I will be stronger |

They'll call me freedom |

And then it goes back |
| [02:15.324] |
And then it goes |
| [02:18.43] |
And then it goes |
| [02:26.642] |
And everybody will be singing it |
| [02:30.108] |
And you and I will be singing it |
| [02:33.441] |
And we all will be singing it |
| [02:41.333] |
When I get older |
| [02:42.968] |
I will be stronger |
| [02:44.543] |
They'll call me freedom |
