Quinn Essential - Let Me Fly Lyrics
Official




Three Up, Three Down Still aint f*cking around
I thank God for my older brother
He kicked my ass, he really made a nigga tougher
I could kill a motherf*cker, and be unfazed
Even if it was to make the front page
Lived most of my life in rage, at a real early age
They said I better change before I find myself in a cage
Look, I was angry, Even Mary couldn't tame me
Wasn't the same me, even Mickey couldn't save me
They said that I was crazy, when I'd sit in the dark
I found peace in the shadows, while kids played at the park
Uh, they said I had some strange attributes
Well I was numbing the pain with my mothers absolute
I use to draw, and it was very therapeutic
It that got me through the years before I started writing music
I just wanted to fly, and so I hid behind the pills, just so I could get by
Some days I wanted to cry, others, die
But I didn't have it in me, i was too pussy to try
Uh, I may not ever reach the f*cking sky, cause i was never caught by the catcher in the rye
Either let me fly, or give me death
Let my soul rest, take my breath
If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma 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'mma die anyway, I'mma live on
But I'll be gone any day
Uh, Word to X, it was dark and hell is hot
I stop believing in certain thing that i was taught
I seen the world through my eyes, and it changed the way that I viewed it
Yo I started talking trash, because my soul was so polluted
Yeah, I came up in a broken home
House full of niggas, but still I felt all alone
And I was told that One day, I'll learn my lesson
But I was fighting motherf*ckers and battling my depression
Knife to the neck of my mothers ex husband
I told the nigga he'd better split, before the blood starts gushing
I was the man of the House... and he wasn't saying nothing
No job interviews, all he did was stay fronting
Nigga say something... because I'm am my sister's keeper
I chased him down Lincoln. He never came back neither
And i know, what i did was kind of stupid
Even though i spared his life, man the devil made me do it
Either let me fly, or give me death
Let my soul rest, take my breath
If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma 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'mma die anyway, I'mma live on
But I'll be gone any day
So many nights of frustration
Waiting on the 95, freezing at the bus station
Now where im from, man these niggas are so grimy
I've always wondered why man, these niggas want try me
I think we're paying for the sins of our mother
I'm guessing this is why the devil wants to take us under
Me and my brothers, have our coping mechanisms
Trying to free ourselves from demons like a f*cking exorcism
Yeah, and we trying to stay on track
And it hurt to see my brother with the monkey on his back
It's such a crippling affliction
Would't wish on my enemies, to suffer from addiction
Lost faith in our religion, that i learned at St. Rays
I know Angelo probably feels the same way
Its like either let me fly or give me death
Cause i don't how much more that I can take or how much time i got left
Either let me fly, or give me death
Let my soul rest, take my breath
If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma 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'mma die anyway, I'mma live on
But I'll be gone any day
Give me death
Take my breath
Die anyway
But I'll be gone any day
Give me death
Take my breath
Die anyway
But I'll be gone any day
