Ronde - lonely child

I been down
Wishing I could fly again
Fly again, fly again
Just a lonely child
With no one to lift me high again
In the sky again
Tryna find my wind
As the world turns
And I dream about for what I yearn
And my innocence brought the ignorance
A baby bird
Is what I was before I ever leaped up off the curb
Unaware of the way this life can leave your heart disturbed
See, there I was
A small nigga with a big mind
Noticing how my parents struggled thru these hard times
And it was times
We ain't have nothing eating bread and rice
All I hear is my stomach rumble thru the dead of night
No beddy byes
Papa don't let tears come from my eyes
Even when I was hurtin
Even when family die
He told me I'll be alright
It's like he knew for certain
We'd make it to better times
As long as I stay on grind
As long as I keep it workin
Had conversations made me find a purpose
I had to make a plan
I'm still not sure if it is workin
I'm dodging obstacles
A busy road but still I'm swerving
Avoiding demons and the vermin
Who left me when
I was down
Wishing I could fly again
Fly again, fly again
Just a lonely child
With no one to lift me high again
In the sky again
Tryna find my wind
I been feeling like
I'm progressing toward a climax
Wishing I could see it all clear
Like in imax
Ain't got time for the phony games
Or the wisecracs
I'm coming thru
Hit sticcin
Just like a line bacc
I fly past
You see me all alone
A lonely child
Only left behind scents of versace cologne
And I'm kinda unknown
But that's fine
My grind
Will have me work skin to bone
You can bet ten or fo (four)
That to the top I will go
Watch me ascend
Will I get it right now or later?
Well it all depends
But do know I intend
To show em who really better
I need a letter, man
To stitch it up on my sweater
Because I ball hard
Known to be a go-getter
Get it with no effort
I'm seasoned, no lemon pepper
Look up to big steppers
Who won't even give me lectures
It would be a nice gesture
But in the flesh theyre
The ones who left me
Down
Wishing I could fly again
Fly again, fly again
Just a lonely child
With no one to lift me high again
In the sky again
Tryna find my wind
