[00:01.20] When I get older I will be stronger
[00:04.12] They'll call me freedom, just like a wavin' flag
[00:10.81] When I get older, I will be stronger
[00:13.70] They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
[00:17.79] And then it goes back, and then it goes back
[00:20.74] And then it goes back, oh
[00:23.46] Born to a throne, stronger than Rome
[00:26.46] A violent prone, poor people zone
[00:29.55] But it's my home, all I have known
[00:32.69] Where I got grown, streets we would roam
[00:35.81] Out of the darkness, I came the farthest
[00:39.17] Among the hardest survival
[00:42.23] Learn from these streets, it can be bleak
[00:45.31] Accept no defeat, surrender, retreat
[00:48.44] So we struggling, fighting to eat
[00:51.42] And we wondering when we'll be free
[00:54.69] So we patiently wait for that fateful day
[00:57.99] It's not far away, but for now we say
[01:01.19] When I get older I will be stronger
[01:04.26] They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
[01:08.27] And then it goes back, and then it goes back
[01:11.24] And then it goes back, oh
[01:13.92] So many wars, settling scores
[01:17.01] Bringing us promises, leaving us poor
[01:20.11] I heard them say 'love is the way'
[01:23.62] 'Love is the answer,' that's what they say
[01:26.52] But look how they treat us, make us believers
[01:29.52] We fight their battles, then they deceive us
[01:32.69] Try to control us, they couldn't hold us
[01:35.94] 'Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers
[01:39.08] But we struggling, fighting to eat
[01:42.12] And we wondering, when we'll be free
[01:45.19] So we patiently wait for that faithful day
[01:48.42] It's not far away but for now we say
[01:51.75] When I get older I will be stronger
[01:54.75] They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
[01:58.70] And then it goes back, and then it goes back
[02:01.80] And then it goes back, and then is goes
[02:04.96] When I get older I will be stronger
[02:07.40] They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
[02:11.32] And then it goes back, and then it goes back
[02:14.18] And then it goes back, and then it goes
[02:19.60] And then it goes
[02:27.84] And everybody will be singing it
[02:30.96] And you and I will be singing it
[02:34.15] And we all will be singing it
[02:42.42] When I get older I will be stronger
[02:45.26] They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
[02:49.23] And then it goes back, and then it goes back
[02:52.36] And then it goes back, and then it goes
[02:55.18] When I get older I will be stronger
[02:57.89] They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
[03:01.67] And then it goes back, and then it goes back
[03:04.72] And then it goes back, oh
[03:09.23] When I get older, when I get older
[03:15.60] I will be stronger just like a wavin' flag
[03:22.06] Just like a wavin' flag, just like a wavin' flag
[03:28.13] Flag, flag, just like a wavin' flag
[03:34.04]
