Free Lyrics

Free - Krys Kofi

...

I want to be free

I want to be me

Not a slave to their tastes

I need to break free

I’m not making this shit for them to box me in

The universe too big so why should we limit what it brings ?

Why?

I’ve been learning new things

I’ve been trying new things

It’s been amazing

Right?

They still have something to say

Even when they cannot relate

Things should be simple

Today I wanna rap like this

Tomorrow I’ll prolly wanna sing

The day after I’ll be painting something different

And the next day, who knows what I’ll bring?

People these days listen to music in order to look for a slip

Many parts of your song that they skip before those TikTok choruses hit

Fuck la D.A. Fuck your advice, just enjoy my shit

Han! You said you don’t like my shit? So why the fuck are u here?

Thinking your ear is top tier (Hun)

Lemme make something clear

Stop projecting your doubts onto my career

One man’s trash is another’s premiere

Just 'cause you don't vibe, doesn't mean it ain't a hit,

That track you skip could be the one that flips a switch

Change a life, open eyes, make the world click,

Your taste ain't gospel, ain't the mass' pick

The same song you hate might dry some tears

The same song you hate might get a party lit

The same song you hate could motivate a nigga to get fit

Or help him fight his greatest fears

I want to be free

I want to be me

Not a slave to their tastes

I need to break free

I’m not making this shit for them to box me in

The universe too big so why should we limit what it brings ?

Why?

I’ve been learning new things

I’ve been trying new things

It’s been amazing

Right?

They still have something to say

Even when they cannot relate

Things should be …

I’m the reason why 237 new gen’ artists are free now

Ask all the guys I been around, I’m the realest nigga they’ve been around

Cuttin’ the critics frequencies off like I’m a surgeon

Ain’t got no sympathy for energy vampires

Those who can’t figure out your craft are often quick to pull down

Newborn creators fail to see their art ain’t for everyone

I write my own shit

I mix and master every sound

Put in the hours, ten thousand deep

I’m self taught and self-bound

Can’t pour my soul into this just to be a market’s pawn

Still grinding, still learning the game I’m holdin’ strong

Damn! Okay! I’ll connect the dots on my own

They see the talent’s there but still want me to switch my style up

Actin’ like if I switched, they’d be bigger fans, it’s a bluff

Thinking more would love me (uh) but that’s never a sure enough

I’d rather stay true to myself and be the only one who likes my stuff… so

I want to be free

I want to be me

Not a slave to their tastes

I need to break free

I’m not making this shit for them to box me in

The universe too big so why should we limit what it brings ?

Why?

I’ve been learning new things

I’ve been trying new things

It’s been amazing

Right?

They still have something to say

Even when they cannot relate

Things should be simple

I want to be free yeah

I want to be free yeah yeah

I want to be free

I want to

I want to

Yeah yeah yeah
