Freedom Lyrics by Ashanti
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
[chorus]
So im gone close my eyes and
I'm gone live my life
Despite what you think imma be free
Cause imma be me [x2]

See I aint never think that I would have the situation
Where the people around me just envy, I must replace em
See I always thought the people that watch me grow
Woud want to see me blow
Fa' sho, but little did I know
They aint never really wanna see me smilin'
They couldnt take the fact that I was really shinin'
But in my heart i know they wishin I would stop
Cause they dont want me to rise and be on top

And all that jealousy and hate
Could be right in front of your face
And its gon' hurt for you to see
But it aint your fault just let it be

So im gone close my eyes and
I'm gone live my life
Despite what you think imma be free
Cause imma be me [x2]

See everybody wanna have somethin' to talk about
So they pointin they fingers and always runnin' they mouths
No matter how you try satisfy someone else
Givin so much of yourself, your love
But its never enough
The more you give the more they want
And they aint happy
And they dont see all that you do to make them happy
They dont appreciate it 'til you walk away
But you dont wanna hear it by now it's too late

And all that jealousy and hate
Could be right in front of your face
And its gon' hurt for you to see
But it aint your fault just let it be

So im gone close my eyes and
I'm gone live my life
Despite what you think imma be free
Cause imma be me [x2]

What they dont understand is imma keep livin my life and survivin
Imma keep pushin and strivin and climbin and grindin
Cause it aint no time ta be cryin, i been thru a lot, witnessed strength
To carry my weight
And imma be okay (and imma be okay)
Cause imma live my life my way
And you can say what you wanna say
It wont effect the way Im livin
Im winnin by bein free again

So im gone close my eyes and
I'm gone live my life
Despite what you think imma be free
Cause imma be me [x2] ]
