[Intro 1]
[C][F][Am][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]When I get older
[F]I will be stronger
[Am]They'll call me freedom
[G]Just like a wavin flag
Born from a [C]throne

[Verse 2]
[G]
Older than Rome
[Am]But violent prone
[G]Poor people zone

[Verse 3]
[F]But [Dm]it's my [F]home
[C]All I have known

[Verse 4]
[F]Where [Dm]I got grown
[G]But now its gone

[Verse 5]
[G]Out [C]of the darkness
[G]In came the carnage
[Am]Threatening my very [G]survival

[Verse 6]
[F]Fractured my streets
And [Am]broke [Em]all my dreams

[Verse 7]
Now [Dm]Feels like defeat to [G]wretched retreat

So we [C]strugglin'

[Verse 9]
[G]Fighting to eat
And we [Am]wonderin'
[G]If we'll be free

[C]When I get older

And then it goes [Am]back
And then it goes [G]back

Ahhho ahh[C]ho ahhho

So many wars [G]settling scores

[Verse 14]
[Am]All that we've been through
And [G]now there is more

[F]I hear them say l[Em]ove is the way

[Verse 16]
[Dm]Love is the answer [G]that's what they say

[Verse 17]
But [C]were not just dreamers
Of [G]broken down [Am]grievers

Our hand will reach us [G]And

[Verse 19]

[Verse 27]
Uhh, well alright How come [Am]when the

stops [C]covering
And there's [E]a little help
from the government
We [Am]forget about the people still struggling
And [G]assume that its really
all love again nah[F]h
See we don't have [Em]to wait
for things to break apart
[Dm]If you weren't involved before
[G]it's never too late to start
[C]You probably think that it's too
[G]far to even [Em]have [Am]to care
Well take a look at where you [G]live
what if it happened [F]there?
You have [Dm]to know the urge to[G]
make [C]a change lies within
[Dm]And we can be the reason that
they [G]see the flag rise again
