“Freedom"

[Verse 1]
Hold on to me
Don't let me go
Who cares what they see?
Who cares what they know?
Your first name is Free
Last name is Dom
We choose to believe
In where we're from

[Chorus]
Man's red flower
It's in every living thing
Mind, use your power
Spirit, use your wings
Freedom!
Freedom!
Freedom!
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom

[Verse 2]
Hold on to me
Don't let me go
Killers need to eat
Don't let you lope
Your first name is King
Last name is Dom
We choose to believe
In everyone

[Chorus]
When a baby first breathes
When night sees sunrise
When the whale hunts in the sea
When man recognize us
Freedom!
Freedom!
Freedom!
Freedom
Freedom
Breathe in

[Verse 3]
We are from heat
The electric one
Does it shock you to see
He left us the sun?
Atoms in the air
Organisms in the sea
The son and, yes, man
Are made of the same things

[Outro]
Freedom!
Freedom!
Freedom!
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom”

“It's never too late to think about what your dream is, and your dream is the thing that brings you the most joy. If you think about your fears, your flaws, your insecurities-- those are the things that hold you back. Those are the things that enslave you and hold you captive. But when you write down your fears, and write down your flaws, and write down your insecurities, and write down the pressures that you feel, and look at them and say to yourself, 'I'm good,' then you'll be truly creative and uninterrupted, which is what you deserve to be.”

“Go inward, so that you can go onward and then upward.”

“A good collaborator knows how to make it work. A great collaborator knows how to reduce and pull back their energy to allow someone else to shine and be comfortable to get the best out of them. Not everybody can deal with having equal energy in the room. And so for me, for people who are really super Alpha, I become more of a mirror than I am anything else and I am helping them see their blind spots. I think that's the greatest in collaboration-- when your energy is not impeding on anyone else's ego space.”
