Free (feat. Big K.R.I.T., Snoop Dogg & DJ Premier)

(R-R-Rappin' on a Preemo beat)

This beat from Preemo make me feel reborn (C'mon)

I used to light myself on fire just to keep you warm

And regardless if my ego feels completely torn (What?)

I'm ghost if it don't move my spirit like a ouiji board

I see rewards come after battles with fear

They tried to fuck up how I see myself, they rattled my mirror

They rushed in Vladimir

Put in nothing but trauma

You can't tell me shit a Bentley and two houses and that's just for my momma

And she don't gotta ever work again, whole family won

The only L I ever took is when Snoop handed me one

That was my first producer placement too (True)

Shoutout Snoop (Snoop)

On an album called, "I Wanna Thank Me", ain't that the truth

Fuck the rules of the industry, I'm foulin' out

I turned every single dead end to a roundabout

Found a route

Bumpin' Cudi

Thought that I was down and out

Freed myself, now I'm up-up and away without a doubt

Searching so long

(I, I-I lived it up, y-y-y-yeah)

Tryna stay strong

(Never thought twice on what my future bring)

Took me some time

But now I see

Yeah, yeah

(I'm free)

(I'm only human, I'm only human, I'm only)

I'm free

I'm free from all the bullshit of these labels

No shuck and jivin' here

Fuck tap dancin' on tables

This ain't no Bojangles flow

This more like a battle

I throw some ice on my fist

Bankroll come thicker than grits, forever Multi the clique

You'd be the same if you from where I'm from

Made a mil out of crumbs with my words in the funds

Cream of the crop out the slums, I might shine in the sun

Matrix glitched, the chosen one, packaged air for my lungs

I'm cut from a different cloth, 'cause I pay a different cost

Them dark roads and cities but flashing lights was a different loss

The southern recipe they left for me was a different sauce

To eat on, and tell that unseasoned love to be gone

Fuck dappin' clones and shakin' hands with haters

I rather free so low, the highs and low of life (Life), and cut the cables (Cables)

That kept me bound to all them folks that kept me round

That only saw that bling-blaow on my crown, now

Searching so long

(I-I lived it up)

Tryna stay strong

(Never thought twice on what my future bring)

Took me some time

But now I see

(I'm free)

(I'm only human, I'm only human, I'm only human)

I been in this game so long

'Cause my game so long

Got them suckers off my timeline

I wave, so long

Savin' money my whole lifetime if things go wrong

Keep my heater close to me until the danger gone

Danger zone is where I'm from

Bangin' on 'em, two, one

Eastside resident with a gift so heaven sent

Uplift my prevalence

I leave no evidence

Blue chucks on the fence, it's the lashes see?

No master degree but I mastered the degree in mashin' for me

I hustle for my paper and I do that accurately

Rap to the beat like Mozhart, I'm classic on tracks

Matter of fact? I'm the modern day Hathaway

I don't play, get out the way

I was your favorite back in the day

Still the flavor to to the smokin' time

Fuckin' the game

Money and fame

I focus on mine to keep it in range

Sever the ties of people complainin' I'm back on the grind

Searching so long

(I, I, I-I lived it up)

It took me some time but I opened my eyes

Tryna stay strong

No fuss, we cuss and bust, it's Snoop and Russ

Took me some time

But now I see

(I'm free)

(I'm only human, I'm only, I'm only, I'm only human, I'm only human)

(Free)
