How am I supposed to survive
If I don't know what's wrong and what's right
How am I supposed to know freedom?
If I don't know, I'm living inside
Cuz you've got the nail to my all
My origins ain't nobody's work
You've got the nail to my all
A numb tic-tok can't even control
[Chorus:]
Set me free
Pull the nail out with your teeth
Set me free
Don't leave me wasted
[Verse 2:]
Slave hits the coal
And every luck is turned to gray
Sounds try to talk
And the words make sense in their own way
But? Is a slave through it's owner
And I won't let nobody take it over
No, I won't let nobody take it over
And all my whole like I won't turn a shoulder
To the visions that keep us divided
Can't hold on the cry that keep me who I am
[Chorus: X2]
Set me free
Pull the nail out with your teeth
Set me free
Don't leave me wasted
If I don't know what's wrong and what's right
How am I supposed to know freedom?
If I don't know, I'm living inside
Cuz you've got the nail to my all
My origins ain't nobody's work
You've got the nail to my all
A numb tic-tok can't even control
[Chorus:]
Set me free
Pull the nail out with your teeth
Set me free
Don't leave me wasted
[Verse 2:]
Slave hits the coal
And every luck is turned to gray
Sounds try to talk
And the words make sense in their own way
But? Is a slave through it's owner
And I won't let nobody take it over
No, I won't let nobody take it over
And all my whole like I won't turn a shoulder
To the visions that keep us divided
Can't hold on the cry that keep me who I am
[Chorus: X2]
Set me free
Pull the nail out with your teeth
Set me free
Don't leave me wasted
