Looking Free

[Verse: Quelle Chris] I pray to you father gee Oh engineer to take these clouds away Keep asking for back taxes I could do for brighter days What you see is make believe Sometimes I just sit and cry When it comes to DNA life this is him and saving life We celebrate big baby Jesus On November 10 and 5 My last time they laid me off Unemployment kept me high I give thanks to marijuana from the streets of legalize Since I trust in form a balance whether [?] trial I could use a fucking hug or a fucking a good bye Time ain’t never been on my side Even though I’ve spent it all my life Look at me look at me Living fly living free Doing anything I want Getting nothing that I need Look bro this ain’t fucking prison This is peace look how the folks living We got [?] by the boatloads and it’s free Hope you ain’t planning to age old gracefully [Chorus: Quelle Chris] Look at me looking free [x33] Look at me [Verse 2: Jean Grae] Every day I wake up Wonder why I’m waking up Every fucking time I’m waking up Ain’t no time debating bro I made this bed with an understanding that everything’s safer Neighbors are asking favors facing the choice of the reaper Self disciplinarian no boss to plan Ain’t nobody gonna care when you’re forgetting my name I wish for hours and clocking and lunch and Office parties I wish for flowers and docking for punching late and tardy I cry when I ride free fall It’s got a start and ending You disbelieve I'm free though The worst of the job is pretending Grass greener get your glass cleaner wash your house Scheming and arena where there’s never ours But look at me looking free Easing down the road Breathing now seeing amazing things wielding the globe Look at me looking free, looking free, right? [Chorus: Jean Grae] Look at me looking free [x8] [Outro: Sample] "When you are in a creative industry And when you are taking it upon yourself to do your own work and do your own thing That is a scary scary thought People make the assumption that because I have a fun job And because I get to go and meet these people that I must be happy This is someone with a tattoo of my face on their arm This is very strange and very surreal But it did not really make me feel like I had any word But there are so many things that people don’t talk about when they are in their jobs They don’t talk about their amazing careers and they don’t put it on Facebook How actually you can cry at night about how hard it is to take that passion And turn that into a career when that passion is all you have in life What happens when all of a sudden that passion has to pay your rent"
