[length: 04:13]
[00:09.84]If you love somethin’, let it go
[00:11.94]If it comes back to you it’s yours
[00:14.14]If it doesn’t, it never was
[00:16.93]Hold me down, baby
[00:19.38]Either let me fly or give me death
[00:21.58]Let my soul rest, take my breath
[00:23.90]If I don’t fly I’ma die anyway
[00:26.64]I’ma live on, but I’ll be gone any day
[00:29.10]Either let me fly or give me death
[00:31.57]Let my soul rest, take my breath
[00:33.96]If I don’t fly I’ma die anyway
[00:36.48]I’ma live on, but I’ll be gone any day
[00:39.38]Hold me down, niggas wanna know me now
[00:41.73]Didn’t want to play with me when to show me how
[00:44.20]No meow, ’cause it’s all about the bark
[00:46.73]Let the dog loose, baby, it’s about to spark
[00:49.20]Light up the night like the 4th of July
[00:51.82]Niggas know, when I let go, niggas die
[00:54.34]With this Y and you don’t know, you slow
[00:56.55]Like Baltimore, if you ain’t tryin’ to go you blow
[00:59.15]I soak up all the pain and accept it in silence
[01:01.82]When I let go it’s violence, ’cause the wildest
[01:04.37]Is the dog barkin’ up the tree for the cat
[01:06.89]In the fog, what y’all niggas see is the bat
[01:09.37]Flappin’ away, but I’m blind like Stevie
[01:11.89]Niggas don’t hear me, still tryin’ to see me
[01:14.38]Stop bein’ greedy, you heard what I said
[01:16.45]Let me go, let me flow, or I’m dead
[01:18.98]Either let me fly or give me death
[01:21.14]Let my soul rest, take my breath
[01:23.52]If I don’t fly I’ma die anyway
[01:26.13]I’ma live on, but I’ll be gone any day
[01:28.59]Either let me fly or give me death
[01:31.08]Let my soul rest, take my breath
[01:33.54]If I don’t fly I’ma die anyway
[01:36.07]I’ma live on, but I’ll be gone any day
[01:38.76]I sold my soul to the Devil, and the price was cheap
[01:41.24]And yo, it’s cold on his level, ’cause it’s twice as deep
[01:43.70]But you don’t hear me, ignorance is bliss and so on
[01:46.57]Sometimes it’s better to be thought dumb – shall I go on?
[01:49.11]Yo, on the real, what the deal? It’s a mystery
[01:51.57]How is it I can live and make history?
[01:53.43]If you don’t see it, then it wasn’t meant for you to see
[01:56.58]If you wasn’t born with it, it wasn’t meant for you to be
[01:58.81]But you can’t blame me for not wantin’ to be held
[02:01.15]Locked down in a cell where a soul can’t dwell
[02:03.72]This is hell, go get the Devil and give me the key
[02:06.02]But it can’t be worse than the curse that was given to me
[02:08.57]It’s what I live for, you take away that and I’m gone
[02:11.37]There’s a difference between doin’ wrong and bein’ wrong
[02:13.65]And that ain’t right, just keep it fair, baby
[02:15.92]Put me in the air and I’ll take it there, baby – yes!
[02:18.38]Either let me fly or give me death
[02:20.72]Let my soul rest, take my breath
[02:23.10]If I don’t fly I’ma die anyway
[02:25.64]I’ma live on, but I’ll be gone any day
[02:28.22]Either let me fly or give me death
[02:30.67]Let my soul rest, take my breath
[02:33.10]If I don’t fly I’ma die anyway
[02:35.50]I’ma live on, but I’ll be gone any day
[02:38.22]I’ma flow regardless because I’m an artist until I’m trapped
[02:41.02]I’ma continue to hit the hardest whether I scrap or rap
[02:43.52]Give me dap, but you ain’t my friend
[02:45.50]I see it in your eyes, you contemplate my end
[02:47.99]You waitin’ for that bend in the road where you were told
[02:50.36]That you would go when you were old and if you died young it was cold
[02:53.46]Sold, not for nearly what it was worth
[02:55.65]Think back 26 years, be like, “What if his birth
[02:58.21]Was a miscarriage and I never existed?”
[03:00.38]Have I given somethin’ that if taken away you’d have missed it?
[03:02.82]Didn’t know, yet I persisted, it was the call of the wild
[03:05.63]I merely say what’s in my heart and you call it a style
[03:08.14]Don’t put it in a cage, don’t mistreat it
[03:10.34]You say you hunger for knowledge? Here it is, eat it!
[03:12.52]Another song completed is another thought captured
[03:15.25]Let me do my thing, I got it locked with this rap shit
[03:17.79]Either let me fly or give me death
[03:20.23]Let my soul rest, take my breath
[03:22.66]If I don’t fly I’ma die anyway
[03:25.25]I’ma live on, but I’ll be gone any day
[03:27.70]Either let me fly or give me death
[03:30.13]Let my soul rest, take my breath
[03:32.56]If I don’t fly I’ma die anyway
[03:35.18]I’ma live on, but I’ll be gone any day
[03:38.76]Or give me death
[03:41.17]Or take my breath
[03:43.50]I’ma die anyway
[03:45.97]But I’ll be gone any day
[03:48.63]Or give me death
[03:51.10]Or take my breath
[03:53.58]I’ma die anyway
[03:56.05]But I’ll be gone any day
[03:59.72]Where my niggas?
[04:01.10]Uh, ahh, for my niggas
[04:03.46]Uh, ahh, for my niggas
[04:05.92]Uh, ahh, for my niggas
