Birdsong

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

Life's a challenge, so for balance had to right some wrongs

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

Life's a challenge, so for balance had to right some wrongs

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

A pretty little bird on my doorstep awoke me

I open my eyes to a place I don't know yet

But been once before, yesterday in a moment

Rememberin' times I was loveless and lonely, damn

Government that sent the stimulus

Donated it to black kids or mental illness

Diamond necklace don't determine realness

I'm just rappin' 'til I'm somewhere chillin'

Feet in this feelin', I need for healin'

Rap shxt don't be appealin' to me no more

Pedal to floor like scappacks at the intersection

Don't look back 'cause you might miss a blessin'

Catch me in the city, bendin' blocks like we playin' tetris

Been that nigga since an adolescence

I done learned some lessons

Come back better like I never fail

Manifest my future like a wishing well

Married to the game, but I don't kiss and tell

We don't talk as mush, but I still wish you well

Roll up my sleeves like I do my heart

Kites fly higher with a runnin' start

Niggas tryna down me like I'm Tony Stark

I be more like Clark without the cape

But with a gold tooth

Nigga just be you, 'cause all that fake shxt gon' expose through

Shawty say she cold, my heart cold too

I be layin' low, but I still roll through

Get it how you live, and that's the cold truth

Birds of a feather flock

Together me and my dawgs flew

Shxt cost me more than it cost you

Collect my coin then I'ma dip off

Niggas can't be me, so they be pissed off

Imagine how they face look when I lift off

Niggas think it's givin', but that shxt cost

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

Life's a challenge, so for balance had to right some wrongs

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

Livin' and let live

I free em, I'm like the prison system 'less in the bit

I come from uncles with beer bellies and Pelle Pelle leather

Tour of plethora of rap niggas tellin' me that they better with no proof

Just subject, the thought ain't quite been thought out

A grain of salt to listen to anythin' out of your mouth

This what it feel like when makin' amends after a fall out

I got the ball in my court, fxck it, I ball out

If you seen what we saw, you probably would tear an eyeball out

I'm talkin' 'bout depressions and messin' up legacies and success

His head down, seven up, but got 'em see like I'm Bethlehem born

Destined for more, outdancin' the Devil

The best is yet to come, I feel like Eve's second son

I am able, can't let 'em lead you astray like Adam was

I keep goin', but that's enough

He got bigheaded, they gassed him up

Caught him outside with medallions tucked

I swear this shxt it can get sad as fxck

But

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

Life's a challenge, so for balance had to right some wrongs

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

Life's a challenge, so for balance had to right some wrongs

Live how I wanna 'cause I'm freer than a birdsong

A pretty little bird on my doorstep awoke me

I open my eyes to a place I don't know yet

But been once before, yesterday in a moment

Rememberin' times I was loveless and lonely, damn
