Cages

Pugh Look, it was summer 16 life was not how I planned it Lessons on lessons turned me to a man The world kept on spinning I stayed on my tangent Sike I'm just playing if I'm being candid Never to cool to not show no emotions Never solved problems by drinking the potion That picture was crooked, it won't ever perfect But flash was on high when the darkness was potent. I started moving allegro Couldn't rest from the speedier tempo I had to fly like an eagle, no crossbow Put a new face on like it was Jim Crow Had a couple places people told me that I can't go So I tore it down, Israelites into Jericho I want my chips with the dip like in Mexico And now I'm turnt to the max like my stereo Never falling down, I'm on an incline Say you wanna ball then gown, you on the sidelines Feeling like it's prom night You been in the limelight Shot clock ticking and you cracking like the daylight Everybody tripping like a story at a campsite I just do it bigger 'til I blow up like a landmine (Boom) Transcendent feelings like there ain't no ceilings And I know their minds twisted like a bad spine I'm breaking all the Cages (Oooowoah) Got the chains up off the pavement (Oooowoah) Bout to Zoom off in the spaceship Feeling so amazing Giving thanks to God 'cause every day's a celebration. Breaking all the Cages (Oooowoah) Got me feeling like I'm famous (Oooowoah) Ain't no time for being lazy Get up make a statement Blessings coming soon 'cause every day is an occasion Done with all the Cages And I been through the matrix Know I dodged a lot of bullets Ain't bulletproof, but I am tonight (Tonight) Summer '17 brought a new wave Had a new girl, fresh like a close shave Till ya boy got attached and he got played Had my mind flipped around like a white slave But I put up a fight like Muhammad I came out on top I hit life with that combo Although it was greasy I took a bite, made me queasy Just like the food at McDonald's Practically grew in a heartbeat Spun the record of life like a Cd Yeah I learned a lot 'bout myself Gotta watch all the people that I keep around me I was Adam thought I needed Stacy Unforgettable Summer like Swae Lee Yeah I was that kid in the kitchen The pot I was mixing like baking some pastries (Skaaa) Stressing, got no time for Stressing Gon' tear down the wall that's closing in like a mosh pit But look where we made it It's a graduation The light getting brighter and brighter I'm breaking all the Cages (Oooowoah) Got the chains up off the pavement (Oooowoah) Bout to Zoom off in the spaceship Feeling so amazing Giving thanks to God 'cause every day's a celebration Breaking all the Cages And I been through the matrix Know I dodged a lot of bullets Ain't bulletproof, but I am tonight (Tonight)
