When i get older i will be stronger
They'll call me freedom, just like a wavin' flag

(chorus)
When i get older i will be stronger,
They call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
and then it goes back, oh

Borne to a throne, stronger than Rome
A violent prone, poor people zone
But it's my home, all I have known
Where i have got grown, streets we would roam

Out of the darkness, I came the farthest
Among the hardest survival
Learn from this streets, it can be bleak
Accept no defeat, surrender, retreat

So we struggling,fighting to eat
And we wondering when we'll be free
So we patiently wait for that faithful day
It's not far away, but for now we say

(chorus)
When I get older i will be stronger
They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
and then it goes back, oh

So many wars, settling scores
Bringing us promises, leaving us poor
I heard them say 'love is the way'
'Love is the answer', that's what they say

But look how they treat us, make us believers
We fight their battles, then they deceive us
Try to control us, they couldn't hold us
'Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers

But we struggling, fighting to eat
And we wondering, when we'll be fre
So we patiently wait for that faithful day
It's not far away but for now we say

(chorus)
When I get older i will be stronger
They'll call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
and then it goes back, oh(bis tout le refrain)

And every body will be singing it
And you and me will be singing it
And we all be singing it

(chorus)x2

When I get older , when I get older
I will be stronger just like a wavin' flag
Just like a wavin' flag, just like a wavin'flag
Flag, flag just like a wavin' flag
