[Akua Naru, Cody ChesnuTT - Canary Dreams lyrics]
To these dreams of mine
And ain't nobody bad enough to stop me (Naru)
Ooh, high (Uh, ChesnuTT)
High, high (yeah, uh) to fly (Oh, yes)
Fly, fly (Uh)
Canary dreams you know all about
Cage in a world of doubt
Given the flight less travelled
You took the only route
Brave and talked about
Made famous in the Dirty South
Talk of plantations give you cotton mouth
Others write your fate till you chirp
And set the record straight
Ancient and future rage
Freedom get another cage
The world can't afford your pain
Recorded by poor
Back when cats used to wonder why you sing
Your story and shine as I chant and scribe
Play and pause, heard justice, rewind
The fast-forward, you gotta fly
"How high?" said the wing to the sky
Who you think put that seed in your mind?
Perched upon till the window cracked
Brought you back a design
Abstract, divine, Maya Michelangelo kind
Painted on the poster
Morning porch is spoken in rhyme
Nas told you "The world is yours"
Just open your eyes it's like
Ooh, high (Canary dreams you know all about)
Watch me spread my wings and fly
To these dreams of mine (yeah)
And ain't nobody bad enough to stop me
(Tell me)
Ooh, high (Canary dreams you know all about)
High, high to fly (Ain't nobody bad enough)
Fly, fly
Yo, despite the Lord
A darker dream in color till a fire spark
Hakeem Olajuwon, center
The words inside the heart
A work of art, Mars Phoenix serena Williams
Stars beam at me in those
Dreamin' eyes of mine
Could see 'em reach, elusive, wet, deferred
Nightmares reoccur
Like I'm that lonely bird content with
Bread crumbs on the curb
Woke up disturbed with ruffled feathers
Lord workin' my nerves
Ancestors send a message: "Yo
You better be home"
Regressions to past lives be recited in poem
Dreamin' real word
Sit side by side on the throne
And architect future moments bought for
Thoughts in your dome
For lady saw another sycamore
Tree in the grove why enter on life stage is
What ponder I these days
After grandma came in the night
With a question to raise
"It's not the picture, baby
Challenge the frame"
And disappeared in a clouded haze
Whistlin', surely sees a angel sigh my name
Ooh, high (ChesnuTT, you know all about)
Watch me spread my wings and fly
To these dreams of mine
(Ain't nobody bad enough)
And ain't nobody bad enough to stop me
(Tell me) ooh, high
(Uh, Canary dreams you know all about)
High, high
To fly (And ain't nobody bad enough, Lord)
Fly, fly (The world is yours)
Ooh, high (ChesnuTT, you know all about)
(High, high) Ain't nobody bad
Enough to stop me
(To fly) Nobody bad enough to stop me
(Fly, fly) Nobody bad enough to stop me
(Ooh, high) Nobody bad enough to stop me
(Canary dreams you know all about)
(High, high) Nobody bad enough to stop me
(To fly) Nobody bad enough to stop
Me (The world is yours)
(Fly, fly) Nobody bad enough to
