Jimi Was A Rock Star

Everyone hides their face, sets behind a mask they wear Jimi was a rock star searching for that magic place That he could touch in the sky just to get his people high Oh, oh, oh, oh (Jack) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Jack) Oh, oh, oh, oh (Jack) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Jack) Life is so, colorful reds, blues and dreams Jimi lives in a purple haze, in a psychedelic maze Playing the streets like and instrument Pulling strings wherever he went Angel sent from the sky just to get his people high Oh, oh, oh, oh (Jack) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Jack) Oh, oh, oh, oh (Jack) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Jack) Women all around (Eh, da, da, da, da) Fast cars and sound (Eh, da, da, da, da) And freedom he was bound (Ehh, da, da, da, da) Couldn't see the ground (Eh, da, da, da, da) Jimi come out why don't you set me free? (Set me free) So high born to fly Getting high off his own supply Everybody follows the same Lord Using his light to guide the way Try things but few die so young Something among Jimi was stung Everyone hides their face Sets behind a mask they wear Jimi come out, why don't you set me free? Jimi come out, why don't you set me free? Jimi come out, why don't you set me free? --- Jimi Was a Rock Star - Erykah Badu and Common
