1
And I'm denial,
2
And it don't take no x-ray to see right through my smile,
3
I know
4
I'll be on the go,
5
And it ain't no drink out there that could numb my soul,
6
No, no
7
All we wanna do is take the chains off
8
All we wanna do is take the chains off
9
All we wanna to do is be free
10
All we wanna to do is be free
11
All we wanna do is take the chains off
12
All we wanna to do is break the chains off
13
All we wanna to do is be free
14
All we wanna to do is be free
15
Can you tell me why,
16
Every time I step outside I see my niggas die,
17
Ooh, I'm...
18
I'm letting you know,
19
That it ain't no gun they make that could kill my soul,
20
Oh, no
21
All we wanna do is take the chains off

All we wanna do is take the chains off
23
All we wanna to do is be free

(So...it was like officers pulling him inside the car, he was trying to pull away
30
and in no time the officer said that..uhm..he wasn't gonna do anything until he pulled out his weapon -his weapon was drawn- and he said "I'll shoot you" or "I'm going to shoot" and, in the same moment, the first shot came out. And we looked down, he...he was shot and there was blood coming from him and we took off running...)
31
Are we all alone fighting on our own,
32
Please give me a chance,
33
I don't wanna dance
34
Something's got me down,
35
I will stand my ground
36
Don't just stand around,
37
Don't just stand around
38
(...and as we took off running, I ducked. I hid for my life 'cause I feared for my life
39
and I hid about the first corner I saw. My firend, he kept running and he told me to keep running 'cause he feared for me too. So, as he was running, the officer...uhm... was trying to get out of the car and, once he got out of the car, he...uhm...he pursued my friend but his weapon was drawn. Now, he didin't see any weapon drawn at him or anything like that, it was going with no weapon. His weapon was already drawn when he got out of the car. He shot again and, once my friend felt that shot, he turned around and he put his hands in the air and he started to get down but the officer still aproached with his weapon drawn and he...he fired seven more shots...and my friend died.)
