1
When I get older, they'll call me freedom
2
Just like a Waving Flag.
3
[Chorus]
4
When I get older, I will be stronger,
5
They'll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
6
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
7
And then it goes back
8
Born to a throne, stronger than Rome
9
But Violent prone, poor people zone,
10
But it's my home, all I have known,
11
Where I got grown, streets we would roam.
12
But out of the darkness, I came the farthest,
13
Among the hardest survival.
14
Learn from these streets, it can be bleak,
15
Except no defeat, surrender retreat,
16
So we struggling, fighting to eat and
17
We wondering when we'll be free,
18
So we patiently wait, for that fateful day,
19
It's not far away, so for now we say
20
[Chorus]
21
When I get older, I will be stronger,
22
They'll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
23
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
24
And then it goes back
25
So many wars, settling scores,
26
Bringing us promises, leaving us poor,
27
I heard them say, love is the way,
28
Love is the answer, that's what they say,
29
But look how they treat us, Make us believers,
30
We fight their battles, then they deceive us,
31
Try to control us, they couldn't hold us,
32
Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers.
33
But we struggling, fighting to eat,
34
And we wondering, when we'll be free
35
So we patiently wait, for that faithful day,
36
It's not far away, but for now we say,
37
[Chorus]
38
When I get older, I will be stronger,
39
They'll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
40
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
41
And then it goes back
42
When I get older, I will be stronger,
43
They'll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
44
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
45
And then it goes back
46
(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)
47
And everybody will be singing it
48
(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)
49
And you and I will be singing it
50
(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)
51
And we all will be singing it
52
(Ohhh Ohh Ohh Ohh)
53
[Chorus]
54
When I get older, I will be stronger,
55
They'll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
56
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
57
And then it goes back
58
When I get older, I will be stronger,
59
They'll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
60
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
61
And then it goes back
62
When I get older, when I get older
63
I will be stronger, just like a Waving Flag,
64
Just like a Waving Flag, just like a Waving flag
65
Flag, flag, Just like a Waving Flag
