Lyrics
Every day I feel more
Every day i feel more
Every day i feel more like a renegade
Every day I feel more like a renegade
broke outta my box, I'm not afraid
don't wanna be captured don't wanna be caged
Every day I feel more like a renegade
every day I feel more like a renegade
more like an alligator a reptile in the shade
the city's my swamp I'm a lizard by trade
Every day I feel more like a renegade
don't wave no flag don't carry no badge
don't wave no sword that's not where it's at
Searching for something's not easy to do
Fighting for freedom's not in war it's in you
you and you too
Every day I feel more like a renegade
if I'm out walking not in your parade
Cut right through the jungle if that's where i strayed
Everyday feel more like a renegade
