Emancipation Lyrics

Ever since I was a little baby 
I had 2 have double everything 
When they tell me that's enough 
That's when I wanna fill my cup 
2 the top, Johnny, hear me sing 

CHORUS: 
Emancipation - free 2 do what I wanna 
Emancipation - see U in the purple rain 
Emancipation - free 2 do what I wanna 
Emancipation - break the chain, break the chain 

Ever since that Eve did unto Adam, alright 
What somebody been sho'nuff doin' 2 me (Watch it!) 
I've been tryin' 2 break the chain 
Get my little ass out the game 
I'd rather sing with a bit more harmony, oh 

CHORUS 

Johnny please, huh, when I was on my knees 
My back was broken and my spirit ill at ease 
And now it seems just like the autumn leaves 
Your money's turned from green 2 brown and now U best believe 

CHORUS 

(Emancipation) {repeat in BG} 
Break the chain, oh yeah 
Well, sho'nuff 
See U in the purple rain 
Emancipation - free 2 do what I wanna 
Break the.. break the.. break the chain! 

Hey! 
Alright! 
Hey! {x4} 

Emancipation 
Free - don't think I ain't! 

Emancipation
