Free as a bird when I say free I'ma stay that Niggas tried to play me off the streets but naw I don't play that Because when I play back the feds gone try to play back my music in court and state that I'm a monster menace to society so I don't say nothing Ain't no back and forth in the net I been back and forth on a jet Goin back and forth getting a check I ain't going back to what I left Moving toward whenever I step keep going until it's nothing left I'ma keep goin until it's nothing left So why u think when I'm outside you always see me by myself Because I don't need no gang out guys to help me I'm gon' ride myself You don't know how many nights I cried and the shit that I done felt Looked up wasn't nobody it's just me I'm all by myself I was afraid to go numb again and here I go being numb again But I want be dumb again I put that on my momma them I'm a hero to my son and them so what I look like fumbling I hear the hate all in your breath these niggas mumbling They hate I made it by myself they ain't even want me to win But I wanted to win and I want it again Like I wanted it then the only difference is my feelings gone with the wind Derez De'Shon Aye I took the pain and I turnt into diamonds It use to rain on me but look how I'm shining I use to blame everything I felt inside me Then I thanked God because I'd be lost without it I took them Al's like a lesson and it taught me knowledge I been through hell but now I'm blessed and thank God I finally Found me again Found me again Found me again Stand on shit like a giant no matter what size shoe I put on And I never switched sides no matter what side you stood on For the first time in a while I seen my eyes and it's been so long For the first time in my life I know I'm right and I been so wrong My mind was so gone kept tryna hold on Drugs wouldn't let me leave the shit shoulda let go I had love and I had loyalty couldn't see that they was dead wrong They ain't want to see me up they'll rather see me wit a head stone I hear the hate all in your breath these niggas mumbling They hate I made it by myself they ain't even want me to win But I wanted to win and I want it again Like I wanted it then the only difference is my feelings gone with the wind Aye I took the pain and I turnt into diamonds It use to rain on me but look how I'm shining I use to blame everything I felt inside me Then I thanked God because I'd be lost without it I took them Al's like a lesson and it taught me knowledge I been through hell but now I'm blessed and thank God I finally Found me again Found me again Found me again Found me again Found me again
