When I get older, I will be stronger, they’ll call me freedom just like a wavin’ flag x2 Can I get to help you singing?! When I get older, I will be stronger, they’ll call me freedom just like a wavin’ flag One more time!
[Chorus]
I was born to a throne, stronger than Rome But Violent prone, poor people zone, Where I got grown, I got my own, ‘pop-pop’ for chrome, shot off the bone Mogadishu streets - nobody preach, Nobody eat, nobody sleep I had my friends, fallen pursuits, 4 ghetto youths, hole in our shoes We roam the streets- Mohammed leans, Cry baby sneers, me crooked ears It’s too much heat, lets go to beach and meet some cheek But it gets deep, we turned a corner, Deadly aroma, technical roller, 2 tank controllers They fire on us and kill my 2 friends Mohammed oozes from where his roof is, I got some bruses, Crooked is useless, these dudes are ruthless, cry baby move quick.

[Chorus]

But I will make it and refuge strictly Remember how we heard about New York City! Well that’s where I am, we moved to Harlem - until the INS gave us a problemWe had to sneak up into the T-town, toronto heats up, police got me cuffed That was the 90’s I started writin’ -open mic syphon, ’til my skills brighten If it wasn’t bling bling, then it ways N’sync I started thinking, I remember singing
When I get older, I will be stronger, they’ll call me freedom just like a wavin’ flag And then it goes back 3x And then it goes when I get older, I will be stronger, they’ll call me freedom just like a wavin’ flag And then it goes back 4x Come on! singing along! When I get older, I will be stronger, they’ll call me freedom just like a wavin’ flag And then it goes back 3x And then it goes when I get older, I will be stronger, they’ll call me freedom just like a wavin’ flag And then it goes back 3x And then it goes... Yeah!..
