[Verse 1: JusThoughtZ]
I was once told life is like a jungle
So why am I surprised when I stumble?
Humble conditions had me wishin' I livin' was in another zone
When I got a call that my brother wasn't coming home
Mobb Deep once me warned of a war
Survival of the fittest, divide and conquer the poor
They said it was outside and nobody else was safe from it
Well mine is inside, I can't get away from it
It seems like I'm living in a gla** house
Cast stones and expect me not to lash out?
If I don't receive love, what do I pa** out?
World got me in a choke hold, I'm bout to blackout
Things are heated, race is a hot topic
Is history repeating itself when we're not watching?
We're living in these dark times looking for a brighter day
I look at the sky and wish I would fly
[Hook: Soulfruit]
Fly away
Somewhere I belong
Cuz there's no time or place
That I feel at home
I may here but my heart's already gone
[Verse 2: JusThoughtZ]
I'm looking at the paper, a man gone over rolling papers
Another sent home by immigration
Leaving home's a wager, and yet I can survive of my wages
Lord knows what I'd do for an Oasis
Definitely maybe, the government ain't gonna be the one
Thats gonna save me, at least I was told that
So here I am caving, face to pavement
For liberties I'm craving, that might have my soul trapped
I need a**istance, who can I run to?
When it all falls down, whose gonna come through?
I'm double-educated although I left school
Where can I find life in a land where d**h rules?
Hands up to the sky reaching for Jah
Hoping He gives me courage when I see a baton
Seeing beyond the present, gifted towards a brighter day
I look at the sky and wish I would fly
[Hook]
[Bridge: Soulfruit]
Even thought its dark out
I know that I'm lookin' towards a brighter day
And when that day comes
I won't be afraid to arise and fly away
And when that day comes
I won't be afraid to rise and fly away
