Freedom is Not Free

Alfonso "Poncho" Herrera Maldonado, Mykal Rose, Quino McWhinney Arias

They have the place under order
And them a lock down every border
Mykal Rose and Big Mountain
Ya better believe it

Freedom is not free
It's a long time fight
It's a sacred right
It's a debt universally
Right now we must unite behind black lives Freedom is not free
My children you know this road keep it steady
We know what life's supposed to be
And we know what it takes to be free

As you live your life
As you walk through the streets
You got to realize
The blood's been spilt right beneath your feet Cause every inch of progress
In a nation that slaves built
Will never be free
Will always take struggle
And it's always been the same

Freedom is not free
Racism is a drag
It's a debt universally
Got to get this poison off our backs
Freedom is not free
Is not free
Remember the martyrs
Is the sweeter Jah victory
What can be said

Blood in the streets
Seven days of the week
We still not free
Although no chains on our feet
What's going on in the town
It's upside down
Look what they do
They have the place under order
And them a lock down every border
One love make life harder
But Bhingi is protected by the father

Freedom is not free
Not at all not at all
It's a debt universally
Konichiwa konichiwa oh oh
Freedom is not free
No no no
We know what life is supposed to be

Free
Free from colonization
Free
Free from dehumanization
Free
Free from hate free from racism
Free
Free from this Babylon system

Rise up my children
Heal yourself and come home
Lock into your history
So you're never alone
Cause we no have to sing no slave song
Block by block we got to raise up
Can't keep the truth captive forever
Jim Crow lost all of him cover
The people in the street
Big up yourself
The stone that the builder refuse
Shall be the head cornerstone

Freedom is not free
Your dreams are built on legacy
It's a debt universally
Feel Harriet Tubman's courage in your heart

Freedom is not free
We got this thing we know this thing
Long time we a struggle
We know what life is supposed to be
And we know what it will take to be free

They have the place under order
And them a lock down every border One love make life harder
But Bhingi is protected by the father
They have the place under order
And them a lock down every border
One love make life harder
But Bhingi is protected by the father
