Prvrb - Free Bird (feat. Karh) Lyrics

Yeah
It's Proverb
I'm just sitting reminiscing bout my past life
Like would you love me if I told you bout them bad nights
When I was trippin I was slipping through the cracks like
Even watched the homie get addicted to that crack pipe
Was doing coke and I was smoking all my pain away
See you don't know that I was hoping I could fade away
Like Kobe in his prime
Or Jordan 89
Either way my mind was dying
But I told you I'd be fine
I was lying
Was steady running from the truth
Telling myself I know when I really didn't have a clue
Keeping myself afloat while I was drowning in the blues
Lost in a cloud of smoke and the sky had become my muse
Painting pictures from a troubled past
Staring at the hour glass
Vision blurred as I dip & swerve trying not to crash
Hoping it be over soon
Still I catch myself lost staring at the moon
But I was doomed from the start
Cuhz having a golden heart won't get you far
This life don't give a f*ck about how much you think it's hard
It's clearly a deception or merely a misconception
Especially if you question free will versus your destiny
I sit and ponder if I did this life differently
Would I receive the same blessings and get what was meant for me
Or was I blessed cuhz I needed an angel sent for me
Or maybe my struggle was orchestrated like a symphony

Righteous son
You live by the gun
You die by the bullet
You feel the heat when it come
Protect ya soul
It's all that you know
You can control
The evil is lurking the earth
From memories told
Fly away free bird
Fly away
Say fly away free bird
Fly away

I guess my donor had disowned me way before I was a fetus
My seed won't be defeated for that specific reason
I see a genius in his eyes
A king in disguise
I could never let you feed em lies
And leave him paralyzed
I couldn't fathom a solid reason on neglecting an adolescent
That shit is so depressing
I can't respect it
I'm working on my second
And for the record this is such a blessing
Leaving em hanging is outta the question
It's war time I was fighting these demons alone
But now my soldiers home
So you better know we coming strong
I gotta keep em close like the 9 in my holster
Teach em how to rule
And always do what you supposed to
I hear em say but you ain't been a man
So how you raise a man
The wind blew you couldn't stand
Swaying like a ceiling fan
Listen close to me
It's all about the hope in me
I done made it this far without nobody coaching me
I gotta past full of troubles
As I grew they doubled from just a couple
And so you know it didn't happen subtle
But this is my rebuttal
This is me taking a chance
I swear I hope that you listen close and glance
Into the pillars of my soul
The story eyes have told
Traveling down the road
Recanting all of my woes
Judge me not for I have opened my heart
Accept me for the man I was designed from the start

Righteous son
You live by the gun
You die by the bullet
You feel the heat when it come
Protect ya soul
It's all that you know
You can control
The evil is lurking the earth
From memories told
Fly away free bird
Hold onnnn
Hold onnnn onn on

Hold onnnn
Let me get my mind right before I take flight
I couldn't eat I couldn't sleep during them lonely nights
Im feeling grim reaping the benefits from your life
Like how you still here when I double crossed you twice
Like how you wanna love but all I wanna do is fight
Thats why I'm sitting here reflecting on my f*cking life
Stuck in the past so the present ain't even in sight
(No the present ain't even in)
God damn man I feel it in my soul
I wanna grab the reigns and gain some control
The cycles getting old but my story's untold
My life always been a battle from the go
So I just go
Cause I'ma soldier
Do what I'm supposed ta
Brush the ashes off of my shoulders
I stand tall I can't fold up
I got 4 four kids
I could never slow up
I choke the struggle out until that bitch give up
Understand Ima young nigga with ambition
Every time you see me I be on a mission
I wanna rack them millions I wanna spend some
We getting back to business we back in business
And no procrastinating cause I'ma finish
And I'm laugh at you niggas
In the past with you niggas
On my momma Imma get it how I'm living

Righteous son
You live by the gun
You die by the bullet
You feel the heat when it come
Protect ya soul
It's all that you know
You can control
The evil is lurking the earth
From memories told
Fly away free bird
Fly away
Say fly away free bird
Fly away
