Broken Wings

Lyrics

She's a fairy with broken wings
 I used to watch her perform
 And if she hears me I hope she sings songs
 That had me going right back
 Couldn't find anyone in town to talk
 'Bout how no one like that
 Should be confined to the ground we walk
 She glides but just seems like she floats
 And these folks decide to crush her wings until there permanently broke
 She rides gusts of wind just by the way she spoke
 She crys but loves to sing songs of freedom and hope
 On the East side hustling discussing things that we quote
 In shallow conversation as if we have deep throats
 We chokin' on confusion
 Now show up as a heat stroke of we need coats
 Trading in our cheap jokes for her C notes
 I see notes being passed
 I ask to see what these creeps wrote
 Define silly kids and flying privelages revoke
 Ski slopes have been blocked off they can't transit
 Had weights tied to her ankles she most definitely can't skip
 Down, shes held down by the transripts my hands grip
 Tried to tie her wings back on before the ones again clip
 Panic stricken, shell remain stuck
 On a Titanic sinken, she's tryin' to stay up
 Change her plan thinken its ok
 See this is strange but
 Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves in a way that kept them chained up
 I'd like to see
 Her take flight into the stars
 Instead of letting her fly free they keep her in jars
 Instead of letting fly free they keep 'em in jars
 I put my hand to the glass so hard
 It might break the prison bars
 It isn't hard to see why they keep her captive
 She's naturally attractive
 Speaks with adlibs, she's uncommonly talented
 Ain't enough adjectives to do her dispotion justice
 Kids are wishin' for just a kiss and it's a mission to touch her lipstick
 Can't trust her with
 Freedom of movement that's a chance to loose her quick
 If she ups and splits
 We might as well call that discussion quits
 If we's to keep her down the government's underlinks
 Enslave people in this town especially if there cultures rich
 Exploiting talents making it do a bunch of tricks
 With the rest of the wingless imports
 Repeatedly told you ain't a fairy, just a bitch
 Just a bitch, with a butt that's thick
 So rub your tits, and thrust your hips
 And suck my dick, and run your shit, and run your shit, and run your shit
 She's a fairy with broken wings
 I used to go watch her perform
 And if she hears me I hope she sings songs
 That had me going right back
 Couldn't find anyone in town to talk
 Bout how no one like that
 Should be confined to the ground
 When I was down in New York she'd send me letters
 And I read her passages about how I left it to the savages
 No matter how sad it is I didn't cry
 'Cause it was only a matter of time
 Before they figured me out and tried to strip my pride
 I knew the scoop
 Wish you could of seen the blueprints in my eye
 When I flew the coop
 Utilizing overground railroads in the sky
 It was live or die let me let you in on the secret of mine
 Me and you are different girl
 We don't even need wings to fly
 We dont need wings to fly
 Me and you, we don't need wings to fly
 Keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Just keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Just keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Just keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Just keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
 Just keep on singing give it a try, give it a try
