Luyện nghe bài hát I Want to Be Free

You think Oakland is a city of punks
It only a second to pop the trunk
And like that you know it's real
You're in the right damn town to get
It's all about the game and else
You come out here, you better watch
'Cuz you can wear you want, even blue or red
But the wrong brothers and end up dead

You catch a full of bullets and get blasted
Tryin' to be a but you just ain't lastin'
This little town is gettin' as hell
Check the penitentiaries and all the
If they could lock us all up that would be just
Got my partners from Oakland doin' time
You argue with the truth, it's hard to be black
But it's a mind game and you deal with that

I wake up and I just can't wait
To make mo money 'cuz back in the
When I rapped, I did the same thing I do now
Grab the microphone and you how
But I was broke, the only I had was game
I started money and knew things would change
Bought a Benz, thought it might respect
But the OPD, it hard to accept

I got by the Task and jacked by the Vice
Face on the ground keep my hands in sight
Put the on backseat I'm in it
Illegal search for thirty minutes
Askin' me where's the
my gun, but I don't know
I said I'm rappin', they laugh like I told a
And to this day think I'm sellin' coke

I want to be free, ohh
(And the truth)
I to be free, ohh yeah

I be in Oakland California day of my life
so hard, you think I'm smokin' a pipe
And if I don't smoke it, I gots to
all my stuff and all you find
Is a full of money count seven G's
Now you wanna think I'm sellin'
'Cuz I'm a man, but I run my own business
So why the police send me to prison

They see a brother makin' major
They knock a out his black ass
And the truth, you can't argue you at all
to give you ten years for a phone call
Ain't even trippin' on the smoke
all they wanna find is guns and coke
In court all the time tryin' to it
We get rich, we get

So what's the problem Officer time?
Is havin' big money bein' a crime?
Or did you me to jail, to teach me a lesson
Charge me with somethin' or just ask
About the brothers I hang
really goin' on in the Oakland town
Tell me who went and who got rich
But Too $hort just ain't no snitch

You say you're just doin job
But you're gettin on my nerves, just Bob
Every I hit a corner, I see you
Always tellin' brothers to do
You lock me up I don't know how to act
But I'm down for mine so I be back
And when I do, you me bad as hell
I'm sick of spendin' nights in

I want to be free, ohh
(And the truth)
I want to be free, ohh

Got out of about fo'-fifteen
down the street like a broke dopefiend
Had a pocket full of money tryin' to play the
Benz got and I was hella cold
But I ain't trippin', I'm used to it now
your boy, took me straight downtown
For three warrants, had to catch me sooner or
'Cuz the always tryin' to jack a playa

For no reason, wasn't doin' nothin'
You think I'm lyin', singin' that ol' song
Well, I'm a black man ridin' in a
How in the hell did I these ends? Here we go
I over to the right
the engine, keep my hands in sight
I start cursin' 'cuz it make sense
Why would I run and try to jump a

If I was plannin' a getaway
I never woulda stopped in the first
You'd be speed chasin' me but this time you ain't
'Cuz all I got on me is a big fat
And I I don't get robbed by you know who
Make me donate some G's to the boys in
And if I sue, I won't get nothin'
But I ain't mad, I'm just

I to be free, ohh yeah
I to be free, ohh yeah
I want to be free, ohh
I want to be free, ohh
