Manuel Alejandro - Let Me Fly lyrics

[Intro] If you love something let it go If it comes back to you it's yours If it doesn't, it never was Hold me down, baby [Hook x2] Either let me fly, or give me d**h Let my soul rest, take my breath If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on But I'll be gone any day [Verse 1] Hold me down, n***as wanna know me now Didn't want ta play with me when to show me how No meow, cause its all about the bark Let the dog loose baby it's about to spark Light up the night, like the 4th of July n***as know, when I let go, n***as die Wit' this Y and you don't know you slow like Baltimore If you ain't trying to go ya blow I soak up all the pain and accept it in silence When I let go it's violence cause the wildest Leaves the dog barking up the tree for the cat In the fog but ya'll n***as see is the bat Flapping away but I'm blind like Stevie n***as don't hear me, still trying to see me Stop being greedy, you heard what I said Let me go, let me flow on my bed [Hook x2] [Verse 2] I sold my soul to the devil, and the price was cheap Ayo it's cold on this level, cause it's twice as deep But you don't hear me, ignorance is bliss and so on Sometimes it's better to be thought dumb; shall I go on? Yo, on the real, what the deal is a mystery How is it I can live and make history? If you don't see it then it, then it wasn't meant for you to see If you wasn't born with it, it wasn't meant for you to be But you can't blame me for not wanting to be held Locked down in a cell where a soul can't dwell This is hell, go get the devil and give me the key But it can't be worst than the curse that was given to me It's what I live for, you take away that and I'm gone There's a difference between, doing wrong and being wrong And that ain't right, just keep it fair baby Put me in the air, and I'll take it there baby Yes [Hook x2] [Verse 3] I'ma flow regardless because I'm an artist until I'm trapped I'ma continue to hit the hardest whether I scrap or rap Give me dap, but you ain't my friend I see it in your eyes, you contemplate my end You waiting for that bend in the road, where you were told that you would go, when you were old And if you died young, it was cold Sold... for nearly what it was worth Think back 26 years, be like what if his birth Was a miscarriage and I never existed Have I given something that have been taken away you'd have missed it Didn't know, yet I persisted, it was the call of the wild I merely say what's in my heart, and you call it a style Don't put it in the cage, don't mistreat it You say you hunger for knowledge? Here it is, eat it Another song completed is another thought captured Let me do my thing I got it locked wit' this rap sh** [Hook x2] [Outro] Or give me d**h Or Take my breath I'ma die anyway But I'll be gone any day Where my n***as ? Uh ha ha, for my n***as [x3]
