Caged Bird Pt. 1-Zion I

Searching for a better world This ain't no game (this is not a game) Searching for a better world This ain't no game (this is not a game) Yeah, this is for my caged birds Who's fighting just like me Daily and nightly, so beyond getting icy It's likely we'll never get out here But we don't care, keep my mind up there High above all the noise and pollution, the shootin' The robbin' and lootin' and the mind prostitution Got a problem sucker that y'all can't solve Looking deep into my mirror, let the thoughts revolve Like we're an orbit on the dark side of the moon I can't ignore it the second coming probably soon Everyday, as I lay, getting tuned with the boom the pain relief is too coon, check this out of my room But my mind go free so the galaxy blooms Like my momma told me pray to the greatest of jews Picture me, rolling out, I'm holding, take control of the script Off my back spread my wings, my spirit can live (live live live..) Searching for a better world This ain't no game (this is not a game) Searching for a better world This ain't no game (this is not a game) Ah, a voice rang in the emptiness The helplesss moan of wings that were never spread My song brings the evidence Allowing me to sing what was never said Parrots look down on the pidgeons who Comb the streets for old trash to eat But my head's up I strut through this bitch cause My beak doesn't repeat my masters speech My feathers are your scholars ink pen They held their natives decorate their big men I represent strength and wisdom and even you can see freedom ring when my wings spread What is it about you that you have to capture That what you can not master If you can't grasp it you attack it, trap it, slam it in a cage and latch it Everyday that you hold me in bars is another day I can't teach your soul to soar Here both of us are, link to this song - and when you hear a caged bird, sing along! Searching for a better world This ain't no game (this is not a game) Searching for a better world This ain't no game (this is not a game)
