Powerful and simple; Freetown personifies good music with a message. Since the groups formal inception in August 2010 Lou Lyons and Muhammad Muwakil, collectively known as Freetown, have been able to touch many with their use of simple instrumentation, thought provoking lyrics, and catchy song arrangement. The goal of Freetown is not to just sell millions of records, but to evoke change in a generation that some may argue is “lost”. As Muhammad and Lou would say,
“The Freetown concept follows on the notion that every man and woman has a personal responsibility to free themselves from negative mental and social chains so as to free their families, their neighborhoods, their nations and indeed by extension, the world

Freetown Collective Lyrics
Intro
Shine on my people
Verse 1
When you meet a mountain
Don't forget your name
Remember is Caribbean blood
Down in yuh veins
Remember you're sunshine
When you meet the rain
We do it a billion times
We go do it again
Pre chorus
Stand firm and never let your heart be troubled
Trouble come and go like the tide
What can they ever do to stop a people
With the blood of Kings and queens so royal inside
Chorus
We so full ah pride
Love to see you smiling
Doh give up keep fighting
We full up ah pride
Your light is so blinding
Love to see you shining

Dark clouds will come keep your head up high
Smile like the sun and show them how we shine

Love to all my Caribbean people. Hundreds of years of colonialism and our cultures stifled by people who saw us as less. Grateful to see it now on such beautiful display. Thank you, Freetown
