When I get older
I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a wavin flag

Born from a throne
Older than Rome
But violent prone
Poor people zone

But it’s my home
All I have known
Where I got grown
but now its gone

Out of the darkness
in came the carnage
threatening my very survival

Fractured my streets
and broke all my dreams
Feels like defeat to wretched retreat

So we strugglin’
Fighting to eat
And we wonderin’
If we’ll be free

We cannot wait for some faithful day
it’s too far away so right I’ll say

When I get older
I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

Ahhho ahhho ahhho

So many wars, settling scores
All that we’ve been through
and now there is more
I hear them say love is the way
Love is the answer that’s what they say
But were not just dreamers
of broken down grievers
Our hand will reach us
and (?)

This can’t control us
no it can’t hold us down
We gon pick it up even though we still struggling

Au nom de la survie
and we wondering
Battant pour nos vie

We patiently wait
for some other day
thats too far away so right now we say

When I get older
I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

When I get older
I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

Uhh – well alright
How come when the media stops covering
and there’s a little help from the government
we forget about the people still struggling
and assume that its really all love again, nahh
see we don’t have to wait for things to break apart
if you weren’t involved before it’s never too late to start
you probably think that it’s too far to even have to care
well take a look at where you live what if it happened there?
you have to know the urge to make a change lies within
and we can be the reason that we see the flag rise again

When I get older
I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a wavin’ flag
and then it goes back
and then it goes back
Then it goes back

When I get older
I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

When I get older
I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

When I get older
When I get older
I will be stronger
just like a waving flag.
