Flying

[00:08.02] Can't say no shit that she ain't heard before
[00:13.47] Can't buy no gifts that she ain't got
[00:17.92] (Before)
[00:19.73] She's been 'round playin' this all her life, you know
[00:24.34] She say her daddy raised her right
[00:29.73] He caught a serious bit when she was 6 years old
[00:33.39] The biggest old dealer like to sell your soul
[00:36.99] He kept his daughter in a paradise
[00:39.70] He liked to dress her up like a China doll
[00:42.36] Now when the Feds bust in shootin' rounds
[00:45.06] He said, "Everybody in the house, hit the ground"
[00:48.63] And it all went up in a cloud of coke
[00:52.34] And mamma lay dyin' there on the ground
[00:55.04] When the smoke disappeared
[00:58.62] She flew away
[01:00.47] That's what they say
[01:01.38] The poor little girl is a foster child
[01:04.91] Led to the streets to run a-wild
[01:08.55] Yeah, so it goes
[01:11.20] Of the agony, all the pain
[01:13.98] The worst thing she didn't choose the road
[01:16.76] Though it's safe to stay on the railroad
[01:20.57] But it's never ever wrong to take her home
[01:23.27] She's flying
[01:29.53] She's flying, yeah
[01:35.50] She's flying
[01:41.93] She's flying, yeah
[01:50.20] There was some love she loved long ago
[01:57.02] She gave that man her heart
[02:00.63] (And soul)
[02:03.34] He was the one that made her blood run cold
[02:08.74] Another bad time in her life
[02:13.21] He had her walkin' the town sellin' her ass
[02:15.96] They was makin' money till she broke her back
[02:19.68] One day, how you do that?
[02:22.36] Upside down on a bow when you're smokin' crack
[02:25.69] Somebody yelled from the back
[02:29.28] Somebody get this hoe up off the floor
[02:31.95] And [Incomprehensible] called the fuckin' ambulance
[02:34.69] Now here we go
[02:38.24] With the black top
[02:40.93] Could've been a star
[02:41.82] But you know how it is
[02:44.58] You can't do shit when you're injured
[02:47.27] Plus these hoes out here is younger every day
[02:51.74] Plus when he left, that was that
[02:53.86] Never even noticed that he never came back
[02:57.45] So fucked up from prescription pills
[03:00.24] She'll never trust the man again
[03:05.60] No, now she's crying
[03:19.16] She's flying
[03:31.81] She's flying, yeah
[03:43.77]
