Fly

This ain't really too bad for a bad day

Hate to ruin y'all laughs with a sad face

But a **** get mad when I put up with the same old shit

Won't exaggerate at all, but I will say

Lately, I been reading more, trustin' meditation

Had to free my mind from all the medication

So much trauma built up in a generation way before me

Unfortunately, I been reaping these sews, each ego is fragile

And mine took a crash and made it nearly shatter

Through the glass reflection, my complexion pale

Hair nappy, I ain't feelin' well, but I'll be cool

In a hundred somethin' years bet my grandkid kids will to

I ain't got nothin to fear, I done shed my tears for two years

Now the earphones play my tunes

And I fly, I fly, I fly away

I fly, I fly, I fly away, but I know

That it ain't no good for me

For me

I cried, I cried, I cried today

You lie, you lie, you lie to my face

But I know, that you won't tell no truth to me

To me

I seen a picture of my homie on the phone today

And I don't even know what to say

'Cause a couple months ago

I saw a number on a phone when it rang

I picked it up and said hello real quick

I'm like "Yo, who's this?"

Said "it's E's big cousin, man, that **** went and smoked his brain away in a spliff"

Diagnosed with the psychos

Homie tried to fly away from bad times

And my brother got his flight delayed

I like to say, I take it as a sign to stay

Grounded, I look around, but I'm still clouded

But he'd be proud if he seen me in this old ass whip

'Cause we was bussin' 'round town, tryna get us a zip

Before the lunch break ended

Tenth grade, puffin on a eighth

Six teammates tryna relieve

Tension from ballin up to ballin' up, to stop the ballin'

'Cause the coach never callin' us, I still ain't called

Think about it high as fuck, feel like I didn't do enough to help

I dwell on the could've-beens, knowin' that I shouldn't

'Cause the only thing I can do is help myself

But still I fly, but still I fly

But still I fly, but still I fly

And I fly, I fly, I fly away

I fly, I fly, I fly away, but I know

That it ain't no good for me

For me

I cried, I cried, I cried today

You lie, you lie, you lie to my face

But I know, that you won't tell no truth to me

To me
