[Hook]
Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
[Verse 1: Charr]
Bring the beat in
And hear the story of my friend who's street sleeping
The beatings; they'll come
The meetings; we won
I f**ed with you hitta
I loved you my n***a
Man it's f**ed up how you got f**ed over
People in your life, they just f**ing rolled over
They let you out and let you down
I'm sorry about how you're living your life about now
But you can come hang with me; you can come live with me
I don't want you on those f**ing streets
Come into my custody; comfortably you'll live
No worries of what you did
f** them for being that way, f** what they hid
I don't give a f** what happened
I don't give a f** what you did
b**h
I'd rather have you here, f** what they forbid
We can hang out like kids again; f** girls that's digging it
f** any prize if we winning it
I don't give a f** who's digging it
If we needing it - we getting it
If it's money man we whipping it
If it's fans man we rapping it
If it's food man we stealing it
If it's yours man we taking it
I'm feeling this
How I'm meaning this?
How real is this?
How mean is it?
I feel this sh**
[Hook]
Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
[Verse 2: Shade]
I miss that kid - the one with the gla**es
The one by my side when we kicking people's a**es
Man I just wish we could talk like we used to
Talk about ambitions, and things that we've been through
But now you're always gone, no longer on Skype
And the sad part is: no matter how hard you fight
It just seems that you always have to fight harder
Stress; stress; more f**ing stress
No more talk about how you'll be the best
I hate to see you struggle; losing your breath
And If I really could, I'd clean this f**ing mess
But it's a test homie and I know you'll pull through
It's just hard because I have to sit back until you do
I feel the f**ing pain, because you're my f**ing brother
While I'm out in the streets and you're going through your chemo
I remember the day I found out I could lose you
I wanted to drop everything and help in someway dude
Anything from bring you food to a f**ing transplant
sh** while we're at it let's slide up a f**ing plant
When I'm in my own trap; stuck in these streets
Nothing but a bag and some ICP beats
They're about to fall apart - these shoes on my feet
I'm about to collapse because my body's feeling weak
But I see a door open and you're rested in a seat
You open your mouth and you say a few words
Replay this song to figure out what I heard
And for this day I could never repay you
I'm just back home now; always worrying about you
[Outro]
And I'm feeling good
