Locked Up/ Freedom

It's almost time

The time has come

Only a few months

And my time will be done

Feet tied with shackles

Hands tied behind my back

Ears throbbing from screaming

Mind worthless because I'm black

MM HUH YEAH BUT

Only a few more months

And, yep, it's almost time

It's been plenty of years

Since I did my crime

Head hung down

Once committed,my heart was scorn

Yes, I did a crime

And that was being born

BUT HEY

It's almost time

And no I won't be no fool

Yes, the time has come

For me to graduate from school

I'm ready to walk to the judge

I'm ready to hear the birds sing

I'm ready, I'm ready

For my freedom to ring
