Maya |
Yeah, yeah, alright |
So my voice could, uh, the beat could come down a tiny bit |
And my voice could come up a lot |
(I can’t) |
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah |
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah |
I can’t be no bird in a cage (Woo, woo) |
My bad, I don’t wanna wait, no |
We got the juice, we got the proof |
Mama always told me don’t waste your time |
I can’t be no bird in a cage (Woo, woo) |
My bad, I don’t wanna wait, no |
Knock on wood, it’s gon' be a long night |
Stay movin' forward, don’t waste your soul |
Yeah, stay movin' forward and elevate from the floor |
And the old you had big drive, the new you drive like Delorean |
Until you do more than Lauryn (Yeah) |
The future’s important, they tell me, do what you can |
Man, I’ma do it like Jordan (That's right) |
Gotta check myself, Mama |
Told me, just like old Morgan, free man (Free man) |
A caged bird sings a song for freedom (Freedom) |
Goin' borderline crazy thinkin' 'bout the children |
Michael Jackson told us all, get off the wall, back then |
Ain’t no strings, like Tito, no puppet, Danny DeVito |
It’s your idle time, get you nowhere, unless you Barrino (C'mon) |
I ain’t a new slave, my new wave, the new negro |
Ain’t on the web, but it’s W. E. B |
Key holes, unlocked 'em (Uh) |
No thinkin' toxic (That's right) |
You miseducated, like Lauryn with the 'locks in |
If you confuse my boxin', with me being boxed in (Never) |
It’s my native language, ain’t gotta say it in moccasins |
Whatever I be rockin' in, I speak the truth (I speak the truth) |
Like 222 times 2 (Yeah), that’s 4:44 |
Better than before (Yeah, c’mon) |
Be three times the lady like we sangin' Commodores |
Knowin' I can’t, I can’t |
I can’t be no bird in a cage (Woo, woo) |
My bad, I don’t wanna wait, no |
We got the juice, we got the proof |
Mama always told me don’t waste your time |
I can’t be no bird in a cage (Woo, woo) |
My bad, I don’t wanna wait, no |
Knock on wood, it’s gon' be a long night |
Stay movin' forward, don’t waste your soul |
I can’t be no bird in a cage (I can’t be that) |
Can’t let emotions hold me prison to rage (I can’t do that) |
Everytime they pop off, I don’t even engage (I can’t say that) |
Knowin' if I act up, I ain’t actin' my age (I don’t play that) |
Some days are Morpheus, other times I’m just like Tre |
Which means, some days I need savin', other days I wear the cape (Yeah) |
They tell me in due time, when even babies come late (Talk about it) |
So I’m go for mine 'cause I ain’t got none to waste (That's right) |
Born ready, like I came out in some cleats, double laced |
To run the world with, they tell me it’s gon' be a long way (It's a long way) |
Knock on wood that we make it through the day (That's a long day) |
I ain’t the one to cross, I left that burden to Lecrae |
I got a plot for every block, until I’m King like Luke Cage |
It’s Sue Bird, that’s my word, the only time the two relate (A caged bird) |
So many, many, many moves to make (Yeah) |
And I approach 'em like Michael on the Motown stage (Hee, hee) |
I walk the moon before I walk the graves all day (C'mon) |
Delay nuttin' sista you ain’t got no time to waste, singin' |
You can’t what? |
(Control it) |
I can’t be no bird in a cage (Woo, woo) |
My bad, I don’t wanna wait, no |
We got the juice, we got the proof |
Mama always told me don’t waste your time |
I can’t be no bird in a cage (Woo, woo) |
My bad, I don’t wanna wait, no |
Knock on wood, it’s gon' be a long night |
Stay movin' forward, don’t waste your soul |
I can’t, I can’t |
I can’t control it |
