Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Gotta hold on to this feelin'

Freedom, freedom

Gotta hold on to this feelin'

Freedom, freedom

[Verse 2]

Yo, seldom traveled by the multitude

The devil's gavel has a couple fooled

My culture's screwed 'cause this word is misconstrued

Small countries exempt from food,

'Cause leaders have different views, you choose

[Verse 3]

What mean the world to me is bein' free

Live and let live and just let it be (Let it be)

Love, peace and harmony, one universal family

One God, one aim and one destiny

[Verse 4]

Oh yeah? Imagine life without a choice at all

Given no hope without a voice at all

These be the problems that we face, I'm talkin' poverty and race

But no matter what the case we gotta

[Verse 5]

Hold on to this feelin'

Freedom, freedom

Gotta hold on to this feelin'

Freedom, freedom

[Verse 6]

Yo, I'm the first candidate to hate

Had to beat on the drum to communicate

For what was to come to those who were hung

They would decapitate the tongue if you would mention the word

Freedom

[Verse 7]

Got people screamin', "Free Mumia Jamal"

But two out of three of ya'll will probably be at the mall

I'm heated with ya'll, the defeated will fall

Incomplete and unsolved when the word freedom's involved

[Verse 8]

Yo, my forefathers hung in trees to be free (Rest in peace)

Got rid of slavery but still kept the penitentiary

And now freedom got a shotgun and shells with ya name

Release the hot ones and let freedom reign

[Verse 9]

I'm a former vote prisoner, a Hollywood visitor

Dance for cats segregated on wax

My color got me handicap, Amos and Andy

For the freedom they just won't hand me

[Verse 10]

Gotta hold on to this feelin'

Freedom, freedom

Hold on to this feelin'

Freedom, freedom

[Verse 11]

Gotta hold on ('Cause there's not a lot of time)

To (Your heart, body, soul and ya mind)

This (They're so true and they been hurtin' so long)

Feelin' (That's the reason why we named this song)

Freedom

[Verse 12]

Hold on ('Cause there's not a lot of time)

To (Your heart, body, soul and ya mind)

This (They're so true and they been hurtin' so long)

Feelin' (That's the reason why we named this song)

Freedom

[Verse 13]

To

This, this, this, this, to

Gotta

This, this, this, this, to

Gotta
