When I get older I will be stronger |
|
They'll call me freedom, just like a wavin' flag |
|
When I get older, I will be stronger |
|
They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag |
|
And then it goes back, and then it goes back |
|
And then it goes back, oh |
|
Born to a throne, stronger than Rome |
|
A violent prone, poor people zone |
|
But it's my home, all I have known |
|
Where I got grown, streets we would roam |
|
Out of the darkness, I came the farthest |
|
Among the hardest survival |
|
Learn from these streets, it can be bleak |
|
Accept no defeat, surrender, retreat |
|
So we struggling, fighting to eat |
|
And we wondering when we'll be free |
|
So we patiently wait for that fateful day |
|
It's not far away, but for now we say |
|
When I get older I will be stronger |
|
They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag |
|
And then it goes back, and then it goes back |
|
And then it goes back, oh |
|
So many wars, settling scores |
|
Bringing us promises, leaving us poor |
|
I heard them say 'love is the way' |
|
'Love is the answer,' that's what they say |
|
But look how they treat us, make us believers |
|
We fight their battles, then they deceive us |
|
Try to control us, they couldn't hold us |
|
'Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers |
|
But we struggling, fighting to eat |
|
And we wondering, when we'll be free |
|
So we patiently wait for that faithful day |
|
It's not far away but for now we say |
|
When I get older I will be stronger |
|
They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag |
|
And then it goes back, and then it goes back |
|
And then it goes back, and then is goes |
|
When I get older I will be stronger |
|
They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag |
|
And then it goes back, and then it goes back |
|
And then it goes back, and then it goes |
|
And then it goes |
|
And everybody will be singing it |
|
And you and I will be singing it |
|
And we all will be singing it |
|
When I get older I will be stronger |
|
They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag |
|
And then it goes back, and then it goes back |
|
And then it goes back, and then it goes |
|
When I get older I will be stronger |
|
They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag |
|
And then it goes back, and then it goes back |
|
And then it goes back, oh |
|
When I get older, when I get older |
|
I will be stronger just like a wavin' flag |
|
Just like a wavin' flag, just like a wavin' flag |
|
Flag, flag, just like a wavin' flag |
