MAZE
"Freedom (South Africa)"
(Frankie Beverly)

I get tired of folks complaining
As if they don't even understand
No matter how we try explaining
Most of us don't even give a damn
I'm talkin' bout your brothers fighting
And all the things that we see and do
If your wrapped up in chains and feelin' that pain
You might do the same things too

Freedom give them what they want
Give them what they ought to have
Freedom give them what they want
Give them what they ought to have

We need to see this situation
'Cause it wasn't very long ago
There was our own discrimination
A problem we all should know
You say you really want an answer
Seems pretty plain to see
Stop all the lying stop all the dying
And set my people free

Freedom give them what they want
Give them what they ought to have
Freedom give them what they want
Give them what they ought to have

We've got to get together
No matter what they say
Gotta power to make it better
Can't stay this way

I get tired of folks complaining
As if they don't even understand
No matter how we try explaining
Most of us don't even give a damn
I'm talkin' bout your brothers fighting
And all the things that we see and do
If your wrapped up in chains and feelin' that pain
You might do the same things too

Freedom give them what they want
Give them what they ought to have
Freedom give them what they want
Give them what they ought to have
