They clipped my wings Told me flying was dangerous Made me scared of heights so I avoided high places Birds fly people don'tDon't stare straight into the sky The sun will blind your eyes the way it burns your skin Keep your eyes on your work you don't belong up there You belong on the earth they told me Stories of Icarus and his wax wings So I'd think they clipped mine to protect me Told me I would fall if I tried to fly But there was something about the sky Something that called me to it's burning, burning in my chest This longing in the brown of my skin Tingling just beneath the surface making my hair stand on edge They told me it was unruly Straightened it so it wouldn't respond to the sun's calling But sometimes when I stretched in the morning I felt my wings itched Like one day maybe my people could fly once Like maybe my people could fly if They tripped off the edge of a cliff and instincts took over I hopped a fence felt like flying Stood on the roof did a backflip off the edge felt like flying Like living I got as close as I could to a ledge once but the stopped me Medicated my quote suicidal tendencies Told me wanting to get high was my way of trying to avoid the realities of my life But the reality is, walking doesn't feel complete to me If you have to ask who's the realest then it ain't you Should have been a plumber all the shit I made it through HI got a couple homies I know could have made it too I don't act self-righteous I know I'm the same as you Pressures of the world had me plotting on suicide Don't want to look weak to my girl so I don't confide And really let her see all the pain I feel inside Instead I duck and hide What kind of man am I They tell you fake it til you make it But what's the point of that You say you're changing the game, but where's the coin for that You're talking murder like it cool, but ain't no coming back We're already a target for being young and black I hit up Karl and Gregg like get the camera, I got some new heat I want to drop And when I hit the stage that night bet I nail it without the hammer And that was just a good Thursday up in Atlanta I wonder what's next for me If I didn't have it yet it wasn't best for me I hear I love you Jay cause you tell the best stories Take me to another place and yet still floor me But I just want to fly away Fly away, fly away, fly away yeah I just want fly away, fly away I just want to fly away, fly away, fly away yeah I just want fly away, fly away Fly away And you don't stop 1, 2 y'all and you don't stop The LxVE crew y'all, and you don't stop It's A.J. and Jimmy Jones Said I was brought up through the rocky trenches Right And I done seen some things I ain't impressed with Right And I got homies with some bad intentions I hope and pray they change their way of thinking Could you speak positive to your lost brother Or would you kick him down just to tell another If your son got killed would you let him die Or tell the young voices keep the hope alive Now fly your high to the highest type And bless the ground when you had to fight And shed blood just to keep the cool Distant from you and your sickening rules We come together yes We come together ayy We come together ayy U.N.I.T.Y together you and I U.N.I.T.Y together you and I U.N.I.T.Y together you and I U.N.I.T.Y together you and I U.N.I.T.Y together you and I U.N.I.T.Y Storm came She stood in the rain But the wind did not blow her away Storm came She stood in the rain But the wind did not blow her away Storm came She stood in the rain But the wind did not blow her away Storm came She stood in the rain But the wind did not blow her away Storm came She stood in the rain, and the wind did not blow her away U.N.I.T.Y
