when it all comes down to it
i just wanna free my mind
even if i gotta go through it
i just wanna live my life
even when times get hard i pray that i see signs
but i gotta keep on pushing
i just wanna free my mind
got a lotta things that i didn't say
wrote a lotta things that i didn't save
all this shit is trapped in my mind and i'm tryna get it out but i'm scared that it can't escape
cause everyone gon' listen to it
or maybe i just tell myself that
i been tryna just get through it
only one second thought got me thinkin' i'll regret that
it's crazy if you come and see it through my eyes
all my goals in my sight but they're devils in disguise now
the closer that i get the further that they seem
but they tell that i'm gifted and i hope it's a surprise now
cause i know that everything is coming soon
waiting till i shine but all i'm seeing is the moon
i've been praying every night that i'll never lose my touch
but as long as i'm alive i can't ever give it up man
when it all comes down to it
i just wanna free my mind
even if i gotta go through it
i just wanna live my life
even when times get hard i pray that i see signs
but i gotta keep on pushing
i just wanna free my mind
i did some wrong things in the past and when i'm lookin back i'm not asking for forgiveness
i had to go and learn my own life lessons and when i think about it god was the only witness
so i don't listen to what other people say
cause they didn't know my story they just came along the way
and everything gon happen how it's supposed to
because it wouldn't be reward without the shit you gotta go through
and sometimes i just gotta to take my own advice
hoping that my shine gonna make up for the colder nights
hoping that the best things in life won't be overpriced
hoping that i'll make it to the top and don't get scared of heights
the whole come up is a mind game
everybody out here tryna go and ride a new wave
imma always keep it true to myself
cause all that being fake can't be good for ya health
when it all comes down to it
i just wanna free my mind
even if i gotta go through it
i just wanna live my life
even when times get hard i pray that i see signs
but i gotta keep on pushing
i just wanna free my mind
