Let Me Fly
(专辑: It's Dark And Hell Is Hot - 1998)
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 Either let me fly or give me death Let my soul rest, take my breath If I
don't fly I'ma die anyway I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day Either let me fly or give me death Let my soul rest, take my breath If I
don't fly I'ma die anyway I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day Hold me down, niggas wanna know me now Didn't want to play with me when to show me how No meow, 'cause it's all about the
bark Let the
dog loose, baby, it's about to spark Light up the
night like the
4th of July Niggas know, when I
let go, niggas die With this Y
and you don't know, you slow Like Baltimore, if you ain't trying to go you blow I
soak up all the
pain and accept it in silence When I
let go it's violence, 'cause the
wildest Is the
dog barking up the
tree for the
cat In the
fog, what y'all niggas see is the
bat Flapping away, but I'm blind like Stevie Niggas don't hear me, still trying to see me Stop being greedy, you heard what I
said Let me go, let me flow, or I'm dead Either let me fly or give me death Let my soul rest, take my breath If I
don't fly I'ma die anyway I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day Either let me fly or give me death Let my soul rest, take my breath If I
don't fly I'ma die anyway I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day I
sold my soul to the
Devil, and the
price was cheap And yo, it's cold on his 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? It's a
mystery How is it I
can live and make history? If you don't see 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 worse 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! Either let me fly or give me death Let my soul rest, take my breath If I
don't fly I'ma die anyway I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day Either let me fly or give me death Let my soul rest, take my breath If I
don't fly I'ma die anyway I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day 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, not 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 if 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 a
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 with this rap shit Either let me fly or give me death Let my soul rest, take my breath If I
don't fly I'ma die anyway I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day Either let me fly or give me death Let my soul rest, take my breath If I
don't fly I'ma die anyway I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day Or give me death Or take my breath I'ma die anyway But I'll be gone any day Or give me death Or take my breath I'ma die anyway But I'll be gone any day Where my niggas? Uh, ahh, for my niggas Uh, ahh, for my niggas Uh, ahh, for my niggas
