[Intro]
CWhen I get older FI will be
Stronger Amthey'll call me freedomG just
Like a wavingC flag
[Chorus]
CWhen I get older FI will be
Stronger Amthey'll call me freedom Gjust
Like a waving Cflag
And then it goes Fback
And then it goes Amback
And then it goes Gback
CBorn to a throne
GStronger than Rome
AmBut violent prone
GPoor people zone
FBut it's my home
CAll I have known
FWhere I got grown
GStreets we would roam
COut of the darkness
GI came the farthest
AmAmong the hardest Gsurvivin
FLearn from these streets
CIt can be bleak
FAccept no defeat
GSurrender retreat
So we sCtruggling FiGghting to eat
And we wAmondering WhGen we will be free
So we Fpatiently wait
For Cthat faithful day
It'sF not far away
But Gfor now we say
[Chorus]
CSo many wars
GSettling scores
AmBring us promises
GLeaving us poor
FI heard them say
CLove is the way
FLove is the answer
GThat's what they say
But Clook how they treat us
GMake us believers
AmWe fight their battles
GThen they deceive us
FTry to control us
CThey couldn't hold us
FCause we just move forward
GLike buffalo soldiers
But we sCtrugglin' fGighting to eat
And we wAmondering wheGn we will be free
So we Fpatiently wait
For Cthat faithfully day
It'sF not far away
But Gfor now we say
