D-Man the Takeover - Free

I'm tired of all the madness
It's a shame how we livin' these days
It's sickening to watch all the sadness
Can we stay in a happy place?
So emotional to think about the damage
Especially with all the negativity
Racism is not okay and we all need to ban it
I'm a black man who wants to be free

All of this is impossible to avoid
There isn't one night where I don't think about George Floyd
Being black in America is not a choice
I've thought that as a blessing ever since I was a boy
Lemme just say that black lives matter
All day, every day, and that's what needs to scatter
It's not a moment, it's a movement
If you care, then you really gotta prove it

I'm tired of all the madness
It's a shame how we livin' these days
It's sickening to watch all the sadness
Can we stay in a happy place?
So emotional to think about the damage
Especially with all the negativity
Racism is not okay and we all need to ban it
I'm a black man who wants to be free
Who wants to be free

Witnessing the hate within
Seeing not enough pride in our skin
There is one thing that comes to mind
Is it bad enough that we wanna win
I be telling people to stay strong
To stay strong for Trayvon
The marathon still goes on
All the bad should never happen to anyone

I'm tired of all the madness
It's a shame how we livin' these days
It's sickening to watch all the sadness
Can we stay in a happy place?
So emotional to think about the damage
Especially with all the negativity
Racism is not okay and we all need to ban it
I'm a black man who wants to be free
Who wants to be free

When y'all gonna learn to put the guns down?
Will y'all go and take better control now?
Y'all should know by now when things are messed up
Are we gonna really have a big showdown?
I admire our creativity and art
And I like it that we are doin' our part
It's amazing when we all become a unity
It goes to show that we're a strong community

I'm tired of all the madness
It's a shame how we livin' these days
It's sickening to watch all the sadness
Can we stay in a happy place?
So emotional to think about the damage
Especially with all the negativity
Racism is not okay and we all need to ban it
I'm a black man who wants to be free
Who wants to be free
Who wants to be free
