[chorus: aceyalone]

Some birds don't deserve to be caged

They gotta fly away and search for the waves

Bein locked up is worse than the grave

I live by the words on the page - i know!

Some birds don't deserve to be caged

They gotta fly away and search for the waves

Bein held down is worse than the grave

I live by the words on the page - i say!

[aceyalone]

I jumped on the planet and i landed on both feet

Tippy-toed across the continent on the dope beat

Settled in the mainland ghetto by the sand trap

Rocked to a handclap until i got my band back

Thoughts came thick in a ball of confusion

A wall of belusion it's all so amusin

I laughed at the pain sometimes with a straight face

Just another hate case you control your fate ace!

Long walks down the lonely road turned path paved

Bask in the cascade grey clouds circle me

Tuned to the channel so their energy will work on me

All in the cut like surgery and burnt to the third degree

Internally avoid an away story

40 and slip of tongue tryin to bring the poison noise

Step in the spot like i'm not that popular

Eyes like binoculars i'm so hip-hopular

Been on the air since greg had a mac attack

Now they all crackerjack that's a fact smell me

How can you tell me what i haven't already heard

Forty-three 43rd listen and observe

First flew the coop when they tried to cage a rocking bird

Lookin for the truth in the booth when i serve

Never clip the wings if they seem a little out of touch

Let 'em fly free please don't try to box 'em up

[chorus]

[aceyalone]

I open a lot cause i smash it with brute force

Flew over the roof headed north on a crash course

Eagle eyes spot 'em all groundhog peekin out

Stickin out against the whack world while they freakin out

Wasn't 'sposed to go but i just didn't wanna wait

Been had a ticket but the chattanooga's runnin late

Hate never had a lover good as i been to her

Couldn't put an end to her cause she got followers

Whole flock of spitters and swallowers wow

Intregrity didn't have a home 'til i gave him one

{?} and diamonds god said say no more

Find a piece of mind like a needle in the haystack

Grind on the real on the playback ready for the at-tack

Seatack cry me a riverboat

If i don't fly back still gotta give 'em hope

Stand and delivery first class rain or shine

Pain of mine in a pantomime glass chilled

Where was your genie when you needed her for real

Buildin my art from the parts that they overlooked

Fuse lit from the last match in the book

Stand in adrenaline pumped through the resevoir

Plucked out the air cause he didn't sit duck

Pretty as the peacock who can't even leave the ground

Let the heart glide on don't buy the muck
