Lyrics
Mama I've got blood on these hands
Mama, I've committed actions with consequences.
I want freedom but I'm a free man
Desire for freedom despite being a free individual.
Mama wont you take me by the hand
Seeking guidance or support from the speaker's mother.
I got this bell tolling in the dark of my soul
Feeling a profound toll on the speaker's soul.
I've got this feeling everybody everybody wants this
Belief that everyone desires the same thing.
Got this feeling burning in me just like some heartbeat
Intense feeling akin to a heartbeat within the speaker.
Everybody's reaching out yeah but everybody's lonely
Observation that people are reaching out, yet experiencing loneliness.
For some bells toll in the dark my soul yeah
Reiteration of a tolling bell symbolizing inner struggles.
Freedom, wont you feel it coming
Anticipation of freedom approaching.
Like a head rush and a blood rush now yeah
Comparing the feeling of freedom to a head and blood rush.
Freedom, won't you feel it coming now
Repetition of the desire for imminent freedom.
Everybody get some, everybody's getting loud
Encouragement for everyone to experience and express themselves.
So I woke up this morning, with a head like smog in LA
Waking up with a clouded mind, possibly due to difficulties.
There's people crying in the streets, oh the children they're so afraid
Observing distress, particularly in children, in the streets.
So one hundred down, two hundred down we've got the
Reference to a specific quantity of something, possibly a metaphor.
The ivermectin in the Five and Dime
Mention of a specific item, "ivermectin," in a store.
Still we got, a bells toll in the dark of my soul yeah
Reiteration of inner turmoil symbolized by tolling bells.
Freedom, won't you feel it coming
Repetition of the anticipation of approaching freedom.
Like a head rush, and a blood rush now yeah
Similar comparison of freedom to head and blood rushes.
Freedom, won't you feel it coming now
Continuation of the desire for impending freedom.
Everybody get some, everybody's getting loud
Encouragement for everyone to express themselves loudly.
Oh we're gonna get loud
Expressing a determination to be vocal and heard.
Take me, won't you take me by the hand I want to
Request for someone to guide the speaker to a better place.
Lead you to the promised land
Desire to lead someone to a promised, better future.
I won't forget you, I wont forget you, forget you baby now
Promise not to forget someone.
Freedom, won't you feel it coming
Reiteration of the anticipation of approaching freedom.
like a head rush, and a blood rush now yeah
Continued comparison of freedom to head and blood rushes.
Freedom, won't you feel it coming now
Repetition of the desire for imminent freedom.
Everybody get some, everybody's getting
Encouragement for everyone to experience and express themselves.
Freedom, won't you feel it coming
Reiteration of the anticipation of approaching freedom.
Like a head rush, and a blood rush now yeah
Similar comparison of freedom to head and blood rushes.
Freedom, won't you feel it coming now
Continuation of the desire for impending freedom.
Everybody get some, everybody's getting loud
Encouragement for everyone to express themselves loudly.
Oh we're gonna get loud
Expressing a determination to be vocal and heard.
