Fly Fly Away

One day, I'm fly, fly away, one day, I'll live this place
 One day, I'm fly, fly away and be back home
 One day, I'm fly, fly away, one day, I'll live this place
 One day, I'm fly, fly away and be back home
 In this game I don't claim to be a veteran
 I'm just spittin lyrical Excedrin for brethren
 Medicine to keep your head from spinning when
 Rappers mumble jargon, I fumble rhymes and start an arson
 Burning gassed up heads and sparking light to brighten dark ends
 Of the mind, now let it shine
 So we can all be the kerosene
 Fearing no team man or human being are you believing?
 If I speak truth will I lose market share?
 Cause it's something the public wont digest in its ears?
 Well I don't care, I'm rolling on spares
 On the road surpassing obstacles that's there
 And I swear I'll hold down the fort like mayor
 As a temporary duty since my home ain't here
 I said I swear I hold down the fort like mayor
 As a love for the people since my home ain't here
 And its time...
 One day, set I'm gonna fly away, one day, I'm live this place
 One day, I'm fly, fly away, I'm fly, fly away
 I feel like an alien outcast in a world so vast
 Searching miles for my niche but lost in the mist
 So what's the answer to this...
 Cause one always exists, with every question that hits
 And yeah, some hit like Tyson, hard to the jaw
 Impairing your ability to answer at all
 Leaving the question in awe cause we ain't trying to fight back
 But if we're born with teeth we're born to bite back
 So I ask, how long does life lasts
 Regardless of color or age can it go in a flash
 Well in fact, it really only lasts a minute versus the infinite
 A concept too intricate for the intellect
 So some get intimate with earths filthiness
 Where melodies are dark and human's are used as instruments
 Where drugs and booze are often abused
 Best friends stab backs then wrap their arms around you
 Where its true lives are driven by power and fame
 Driven by sex, success, approval, and pain
 And for what? Nothing's left when we're driven to graves
 Just memories of the past, or a loved ones pain
 And its real what's seen today fades away
 But the unseen's eternal so I cherish its stay
 The un-American way but I must maintain
 'Cause if I forfeit my soul, then what's been gained?
 So sometimes, I grab my pen and write rhymes
 My mind breathes when the ink flows into nighttime
 I plant seeds, and watch 'em grow into trees
 Produce fruit from leaves and feed the people in need
 And that's the truth if that fruit is wealthy
 Who cares if music's moving if the products unhealthy
 I'm looking at the crowd for that one who felt me
 Helping' me raise the bet on these cards God dealt me
 But still some doubt it's worth pursuing
 We've all been given gifts so now how we going to use 'em
 I'm on the outside looking in at the confusion
 I been there before swinging fists at those illusions
 Now I fight the hands of time, with my might
 So my life can be seen as worthy in hindsight
 I clutch my mic tight and ponder the way
 Reflecting back sometimes on this temporary stay
 But I won't get attached cause I know where home is
 And reach out to souls that are currently homeless
 'Cause some claim the earth and clown around till it hurts us
 In this circus a juggling act that makes me nervous
 Maybe its entertaining when you look at its surface
 But step outside the ring and ask is it all worth it
 Just step outside the ring and ask is it all worth it
 Just step outside the ring on this temporary stay
 One day, I'm fly, fly away, one day, I'll live this place
 One day, I'm fly, fly away and be back home
 One day, I'm fly, fly away, one day, I'll live this place
 One day, I'm fly, fly away, I'm fly, fly away
 Set fly, fly away, set fly, fly away, fly, fly away, fly away
