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"
