[Lute, Saba, JID - Birdsong lyrics]
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 done 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 shit don't be appealin' to me no more
Pedal to floor like Scat
Packs 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 adolescent
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 much
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 shit 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
Shit 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 shit 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
Live and let live i'm free
I'm like the prison system lessenin' the bid
I come from uncles with beer
Bellies and Pelle Pelle leather
To a plethora of rap niggas tellin' me
That they better with no proof
Just subjective thought ain't quite
Been thought out
A grain of salt to listen to
Anything out of y'all mouth
This what it feel like when makin'
Amends after a fall out
I got the ball in my court, fuck 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 successes
It's 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 shit can get sad as fuck 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
Tell me what I know, man life is a test
So keep your eyes on your own paper
