Freedom
Pusha T Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

America's ours, America's ours

Let's go
Yeah
Yeah

I've been winning for so long
You've been winning for so long
We've been winning for so long
When it's right, it's no wrong

O-M-G no O-N-E
Fuck with a boy, ain't cold as he
Ain't what they seem, not bold as me
Ain't lived a life as low as me
Oh, please
I don't do the nose bleeds
I just pass 'em those keys
Valet parking, Rolls please
Money is power
Look at the people in power
Funeral flowers
Freedom devour
This is not yours, this is ours

America's ours
Runs like the towers
We back and we better
We rain like the showers
We're watching you cowards
All of you cowards

Yeah
Let's go
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

America's ours
Runs like the towers
We back and we better
We rain like the showers
We're watching you cowards
All of you cowards

Yeah
Let's go
Yeah
America's ours

Ours, ours, ours
Ours, ours, ours




America's ours
America's ours

Overall Meaning

Pusha T's song "Freedom" is a commentary on American society and its perceived power structures. The repeated refrain of "America's ours" is both a statement of ownership and a call to action, suggesting that the country belongs to its citizens and that it is up to them to shape its destiny. The first verse establishes the rapper's personal success and the idea that he is a self-made man who has overcome adversity. He emphasizes his own strength and resilience, contrasting himself with those who are weaker or less successful.


The second verse is more explicitly political in nature, with Pusha T criticizing those who hold power and influence in American society. He asserts that "money is power" and suggests that those in positions of authority are primarily concerned with their own wealth and status. He also references the idea of "funeral flowers," implying that those in power are responsible for the death and suffering of others. The final refrain of "America's ours" is more defiant than ever, suggesting that the rapper and his fellow citizens are ready to take control of their country and demand change.


Pusha T's "Freedom" has been praised for its message of empowerment and its critique of American society. It is a call to action for those who feel marginalized or overlooked, urging them to assert their own power and demand justice. At the same time, the song is a reminder of the obstacles that still exist in American society, particularly for people of color and those from disadvantaged backgrounds. The repetition of the refrain, "America's ours," is a powerful reminder that the country belongs to everyone, and that it is up to all of us to create a more just and equitable society.
