When I get older I will be stronger they'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag When I get older I will be stronger they'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag and then it goes back Born to a throne, Stronger than Rome But violent prone, poor people zone But it's my home All I have known where I got grown streets we would roam But of the darkness I came the farthest among the hardest , Survivlal Learn from these streets It can be bleak Accept no defeat Surrender retreat (so we strugglin') Fighting to eat (And wa wondering) When we'll be free, So we patiently wait For that faithful day It's not far away but for now we say When I get older I will be stronger they'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag and then it goes back [x3] And then it goes back [x3] When I get older I will be stronger they'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag and then it goes back [x3] So many wars settlin scores Bringing us promises Leaving us war I heard them say Love is the way, Love is the answer That's what they say But look how they treat us Make us believers, We flight their battles Then they daceive us, Try to control us They couldn't own us Cause we just move forward Like buffalo soldiers (so we struggling) Fighting to eat (And we wondering) When we'll be free, So we patiently wait For that faithful day It's not far away but for now we say [chorus] And then it goes And everybody will be singing And you and I will be singing And we all will be singing [chorus] When I get older, When I get older I will be stronger Just like a wavin' flag Just like a wavin' flag Just like a wavin' flag Flag, Flag Just like a wavin' flag
