Canon - Eagles lyrics

[Intro] If you truly want to see the world for what it really is, you have to get above it. You have to get above it, you must fly like the eagles, fly beyond the eagles, fly above the eagles to see how the world really is [Hook] Contemplate how we're gonna make it through the night I'm weak and I ain't gotta fake it in my life Oh, Lord, You know we need You Since you, gave me power for my people Now send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) Send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) Send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) Now send me way up (way up, way up) Now send me way up (way up, way up) Send me way above the eagles I gotta go fly away, I gotta go fly away I gotta go fly away, I gotta go fly away Send me way above the eagles Now send me way up Now send me way up Send me way above the eagles [Verse 1] I'm an overcomer, reaching high above 'em I'm like Danny Glover shootin' high above 'em Come through doot doot doot doot, snapping all up on em It's a lethal weapon, that's a dragon on me I'm just here to fly above the stat quo I don't pledge allegiance to the ma**, no If your freedom in God let your flag show Man I've been reaching forward, let the past go Going back? No! How could they tell us to stand for something when they want us to play the victim It's a broken system, we can't make a living If the money in our pockets got their hands up in them Wasn't planned for us to win this It wasn't in the plan to finish Put them in hella ghettos, man I get it Them pies they selling weren't meant for purchase from a people group Oh now I get it! If you really want to get above the average, you better get to reading that's real talk And your mind is conditioned to take with they'd give you, don't question what's been taught Why you think Frederick Dougla** was dressed up like dang it he's real smart? I'm breaking them chains of ignorance, tryna to stop em, I get real heart I'm light in the real dark You've been shot by the devil, he's clever, a real shark He playin' with a real part Ain't no sleepin', only weeping for you so stand guard Weapon it can charge The word is all I got, no jamming, it rams hard With allegiance we stand large With a shot so big it ain't nothing you can guard [Hook] Contemplate how we're gonna make it through the night I'm weak and I ain't gotta fake it in my life Oh Lord You know we need You Since you, gave me power for my people Now send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) Send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) Send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) Now send me way up (way up, way up) Now send me way up (way up, way up) Send me way above the eagles I gotta go fly away, I gotta go fly away I gotta go fly away, I gotta go fly away Send me way above the eagles Now send me way up Now send me way up Send me way above the eagles [Verse 2] I do this, one time for my squinad Two times for my hittas I grind hard on my jinob Ain't got time for no quitters Ain't in this cause it sounds good I've been in this since my childhood I'm just doing what the wild should Fit in my position just like the crown would Been with lions in the jungle Skip the running we can rumble Feel the weight or feel the muscle Don't fix the systematic struggles This oppression gotta crumble up No discussion when that chopper chopping like an AK47 Chuck it, ain't no Smith and Wesson Just the old and new, the testimony Got me walking like a holy matrimony Yeah I put up what they put up on me Ooh I'm confident, you see the strap up on me Back up back up homie Back up, ain't no stressing while we counting blessings We just riding with the homies, uh I been riding like an eagle, feeling unbelievable I got the juice when I come to this I got the power like I'm Superman Energy from the sun, I'm King Kong, you a son to me And that's what I told life Depression the pain and the struggle to fight Focused again and gained life I'm only stronger when I'm standing up righteous [Hook] Contemplate how we're gonna make it through the night Now send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) Send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) Send me way above the eagles (way up, way up, way up, way up) I gotta go fly away, I gotta go fly away I gotta go fly away, I gotta go fly away Send me way above the eagles Now send me way up Now send me way up Send me way above the eagles
