[Intro: Fabolous] And she know we k**ing em And some people don't like it, but she still feeling 'im My black bird And she know we k**ing em And he ain't always right, but she still feeling 'im I'mma need you to spread your wings And fly away with me, baby [Verse 1] I'm John Dilli You play Billie Ride to that Soul Tape -- "Y'all don't really Hear me though, y'all don't really hear me though" Long as I'm with you, babe, it don't matter where we go, yo Yellow chick, she no canary though That's my blackbird, she clearly Crow We met a year ago and you been looking s**y since Think your E's for "effort", you get E's for excellence Black excellence, you in all-black You know who she with, you should fall back When I was down, baby, you knew I'd crawl back And when I lost you, you knew I'd call back Hello? Hey doll, it's me Never lockouts when you play ball with me And it's consequences but she understands That she riding with a wanted man [Hook: Broadway] I don't care about what they gon' say You already what they gon' play You my black bird, that ain't gon' change I need you to spread your wings To fly away with me, baby That's my black bird I need you to fly away with me, baby That's my black bird [Verse 2] We at the safe house, hiding out Cause all eyes be on us when we sliding out What if we could get out of here altogether? Don't pack no bags when we land, hit the mall, whatever You and me now, no more what you call a job Gotta take what you want in life, some people call it rob I get to the money, minute forty seconds flat It ain't hard to tell, so we expecting rats But it's me and you against the world Feel like the odds is in our favor The smart money's on my baby girl When others fear, we are at our bravest Back at it not a hour later It must s** being our neighbors And it's consequences, but she understands That she riding with a wanted man [Hook]
