Chasing Freedom

Started young, caught in the game, no turning back

Bounce in my step, dreams of a clean slate, but I stay strapped

From junior high, grindin' in the shadows, chasing paper

Bad bitches on my line, flavor, notorious neighbor

Facing thirty-five, life on the line, tryna escape the cage

Rehab kicked me out, but I still got plans, still turn the page

Chasing that freedom, brighter days, no more chains

Risking it all, heart stall, fighting mental pain

Trap life, bad bitches riding, no lie, only real

Facing decades, hoping for the day I can heal

Still out here taking chances, dreaming of release

Praying for the system to crash and I find my peace

Third strike on the trafficking, heavy weight, deep scars

Still out here in these streets, counting stars behind bars

Booted from rehab, but I ain’t losing hope

Every chance I take, just to find a way to cope

Chasing that freedom, brighter days, no more chains

Risking it all, heart stall, fighting mental pain

Trap life, bad bitches riding, no lie, only real

Facing decades, hoping for the day I can heal

Still out here taking chances, dreaming of release

Praying for the system to crash and I find my peace

One day I’ll break free, no more trap, no more pain

Till then I grind daily, soaking in the rain

Counting down the years, writing my escape plan

Till I walk free, finally, a new man

Still out here, still dreaming, still fighting to breathe

One day I’ll wake up, finally, just to believe.
