Birdie

We can take a boat ride
We can make a milli with no cosign
We could go to Europe
We could go to Africa
Winter in Johannesburg
It don't really matter love
We ain't in a competition
Ain't nobody catching up
Young, free and black with a whole lotta stamina
We are more than okay
Still reminiscing on the old days
I still take the book with a low spade

So what you tryna do?
Everything good as long as I'm with you
I was in survival mode
Now I got a lot to lose
I was in the dark, stuck
Now my light shining through

You been through a whole lot
And I feel like we both could use a vacay
We could go to Barcelona, Spain for an eight-day
We could see a horror movie like we in the eighth grade
Don't you let them tell you what you can't do
There ain't nothing that you can't handle
It mean a whole lot that you love me
Even when I wake up ugly

I'm with you on the way up to the wake-up
By your side when the day comes
Time goes by, I'm the same one
The same one, the same one
On the wake-up, way up
I'm by your side when the day comes
Time goes by, I'm the same one
You the same one, the same one

Sunshine, sunshine
Rain on your window
Try to make it out
Tryna figure out how to make it
'Cause she don't really got much
But more than she did last year
And boy, that was a tough one
And she ain't ever going back there

I feel you, I feel you, like
I was there with you, like
That wasn't good for you anyway
Girl, why are you tripping?
Just get to your business, is all
Stick to your vision, is all
Learn how to get up as quick as you fall
And if you need a hug, you can call me
And you can mentally lay on me

I'm with you on the way up to the wake-up
By your side when the day comes
Time goes by, I'm the same one
The same one, the same one
On the wake-up, way up
I'm by your side when the day comes
Time goes by, I'm the same one
You the same one, the same one

Summer in Tijuana or Rio
That is our only dilemma
Started with zero
Started with nothing
Tell me what you want
You can have it all
You just say the word
You could take what you deserve
There's enough to go around, look
You believe in me as much as I believe in you

And you do not belong to me
And I do not belong to you
We free to be and do what we born to be
Assume the high position as a king and queen
I love an underdog story
I'm happy you is my shorty
We been through hell and back
On this journey, but where heaven at?
I'm freeing birdies left and right
I'll never get them back
I watch them fly away

I'm with you on the way up to the wake-up
By your side when the day comes
Time goes by, I'm the same one
The same one, the same one
On the wake-up, way up
By your side when the day comes
Time goes by, I'm the same one
You the same one, the same one
