Fly Away

K-nuff verse:

Mama, i remember them times when daddy was on the grind

Not for the money, but daddy's infatuated with dimes

And you wanted him out, but wanted him to say

Especially when we seen him out playing like a player plays

I would call him daddy, his friends called him dickie, but ice man is what they use to call him in the city

Because his game was so cold he would leave the girls chilly

And at fiv years old i just thought he was a lily livered coward

Ah man, mama here's a flower

Because i'm gonna be the man

At least i thought that i would

Fast forward on the hour glass i'm dealing with his shadow

And not being the way my daddy was is a battle

So being as far from the tree is where i'm planning to travel

They say the apple don't fall far from the tree but i had to

Disprove statistics, now i got a mrs. and a princess and it's so fly, i'm living limit less

Chorus:

We get hurt sometimes and it hurts inside

And no one understands

So we try to hide away (away,hide away, away, hide away, away, hide away)

So we try to be strong

We try to move on

But no one understands

So we gotta fly away (away,fly away, away, fly away, away)

Juanlove verse:

When we met i was pre-teen

Young an impressionable i met you on the east wing

Posted by the locker rooms and you wanted to be seen

So i maneuvered to the spot, attention was locked and loaded on a real thing

So pretty and pristine, then from front to the back i studied you, blood rushing like a bee sting

All of my senses were got, infected i caught glimpse of a beauty more painful than the one the sea brings

A little boy infatuated with a dime

Drawn in like a scavenger and straddling the line

Who is really to blame for the mystery of discovery?

Borne of the flesh, hiding our nakedness with shrubbery

Break loose from tom foolery and lust

Watch it boast a heavy punch and knock you over like a windless gust

Boyhood dreams are so fleeting and cunning

Just don't forsake the lord in your days as a youngin

Chorus:

We get hurt sometimes and it hurts inside

And no one understands

So we try to hide away (away,hide away, away, hide away, away, hide away)

So we try to be strong

We try to move on

But no one understands

So we gotta fly away (away,fly away, away, fly away, away)

Butta p verse:

It was a sunny day, riding on my bike like kids play

He's nearly twice my age, took a liking to my frame

And now he took away pieces of my youthful days

And introduced me to a stage i should know about at that age

How do you explain living life with fits of rage?

He told me i'd be gay and now my heart is full of hate

I wanted to escape like a wing upon a plane

Fly away to a place where i'd feel no more pain

I'm fading away because i know it don't exist

So i look to exit in his smile he look so brave

He knows what to say; like a potter i'm his clay

He's molding me away into this image i portray

But it's all so fake, because inside i'm cold and pained

His words have left a curse and now i'm living with the shame

But what can i say? but freedom came my way

And like an eagle now i'm soaring flying high above the waves

Chorus: 2x

We get hurt sometimes and it hurts inside

And no one understands

So we try to hide away (away,hide away, away, hide away, away, hide away)

So we try to be strong

We try to move on

But no one understands

So we gotta fly away (away,fly away, away, fly away, away)
