Free At Last Lyrics

      (Martin Luther King's speech [Part 1])

VERSE 1 :

Freedom! Freedom!
We ridin' to the Kingdom
Free from addiction and babylonic syndromes
Exile, asylum from Sodom and Gomorrah
Rather stay faithful, only sinners use condoms
Broke free, so call me the ghetto solution
Born free but walking everywhere in chains
Tasted the fruit of evil but now I'm livin' in shame
Freedom is a choice, I should be playing the game
One week to go like Elisabeth Joasaint
Earthquake survivor on a hurricane season
It's a Meredith's March and not a million dollar baby

Make a move approve nothing good comes easy
Defeated on the battlefield
But I can't accept defeat
In my heart I'm like Tyson biting Holiefield
Beginners have great end
So let's somebody help me say something on his freedom anthem

HOOK (Ket's Love) :

The best choice is liberty
Only your faith can set you free
Oooh You might be the world (might be the world)
Move forward and you will see
How to be free is wonderful
VERSE 2 :

Be kind with those that you meet on the way
For you shall meet them at home and they gon' show you the way

MLK to JFK, was it all a dream to the reality Obama portrays ?
Don't be trapped in the fortress of fortune and fame
Love your neighbor as yourself or else, your fortune is pain
Pride befalls men, so be the first to humble yourself
What's life after death if you can make it on Earth ?
I'm on the way to redemption and this is my breakthrough
In vision, Mandela back in Ruben Island
See my sister and my brother Sam chillin' in Zion
It works accordind to your faith, strive for freedom like Gandhi
Let the truth be known and let it set you free
Be violent in your prayer, God will set you free
This is deeper than rap cuz it's my life
So sing a song of freedom and trully you'll survive

HOOK

VERSE 3 :

Reconcile your heart and your feelings
Your rap and the music
Your home and your family
The fans and the groupies
The world and your country
Love and your enemies
The leaders and the nations
Rejected and the rookies
Broke and the flashy
Believers and the sinners
Reconcile the World with the Almighty Creator
Reconcile myself with myself
That's freedom
Reconcile yourself with yourself
That's wisdom

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

A wave of racial claims has emerged in recent years among the Black community. A wave slightly influenced by police brutality leading to several black youth murders in the USA (Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown …).

Black people from all walks remembered the dark periods of oppression and racial injustice they faced since the slave trade, colonization era and through racial segregation.

Almost a millennium of physical and especially moral exploitation that imprisoned the dreams of expansion of a race then ready for a brighter future.

It is therefore easy to understand the sour and bitter resentment that Black People feel towards their oppressors reported in this case as the White Man.

However the rapper is trying to distance himself a little from this point of view. He is addressing the issue from another angle. And if instead of perpetuating an era of grudge and violence, The Black Man decided to heal his psychological wounds, break free from his mental chains, and reconcile with his past, this erased period when he was ruler of his land and his own soul ? All this to get back up and become the outstanding contributor that he is to the evolution of humanity. What if the Black Man was finally FREE AT LAST? What if that was the real dream of Dr. Martin Luther King …?
