"2012" lyrics - JANELLE MONAE

JANELLE MONAE
"2012"

Deeper you sow
The more you grow
Listen up
We're breaking in
Good news

Freedom has come
For old and young
To bring you cheer
And save you from
The blues

Kings with dreams
Declare and fight
To claim the house
That's colored white
With blood

But we have come
From builds of old
By weary songs
A vision shown
Above

Janelle Monae:
Won't be no time for hesitating
We are what we've been waiting for
The train has come no time for patience
So let the children all aboard

I just want to be
Free as I can be
Someone please help me
Help me to be free

Freedom is our destination
We've come to take what's been in store
This is our final proclamation
We've come for peace by way of war

I just want to be (I just to be)
Free as I can be (free as I can be)
Someone please help me (someone please help me)
Help me to be free (help me to be free)

(I just want to be) I want to be free
(Free as I can be) free as I can be
(Someone please help me) someone someone
(Help me to be free) help me to be free

I just want to see
I just want to see freedom
(Oh)

I just want to see
I just want to see freedom
(Oh)

I just want to see
I just want to see freedom
(I just want to see freedom)

I just want to see
I just want to see freedom
(Freedom)

I just want to see (I just want to)
I just want to see freedom
(Freedom)

I just want to see (I just want to)
I just want to see freedom
(Freedom)

I just want to see (I just want to)
I just want to see freedom
(Freedom)

I just want to see (I just want to)
I just want to see freedom
(Freedom)

Let freedom ring
Let freedom ring
Let freedom ring
Let freedom ring

Throw your chains off
Throw your chains off
Throw your chains off
Throw your chains off
Throw your chains off
Throw your chains off
