Canary Dreams |
Ooh, high |
Watch me spread my wings and fly |
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 the |
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 |
