Pretty Little Birds (feat. Isaiah Rashad)

You are but a phoenix among feathers

You're broken by the waves among the sea

They'll let you die, they'll let you wash away

But you swim as well as you fly

Pretty little bird, pretty little bird

You've hit the window a few times

The window a few times

You pretty little bird, pretty little bird

You still ain't scared of no heights

When the spiral down feels as good as the flight, oh

When hating you feels good for the night

When the morning comes, I hope you're still mine

When the morning comes

If the morning comes

When the morning comes, if the morning comes

When the morning comes, I hope you're still mine

When the morning comes

If the morning comes

Told you I like gentle giants, so you softened up

And you been jackin', beanin', stalkin' just to get to me, love

I wanna be your golden goose

I wanna shave my legs for you

I wanna take all of my hair down and let you lay in it

Spread all of my limbs out and let you lay in it

Pretty little birds, pretty little birds

Do you mean every word, you mean every word?

Do you mean?

Pretty little girls, pretty little girls

Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty

We hit the window a few times

Hit the wall, hit the wall

God, I can't stay

But I would lay

But I would, I would

Lately, I feel like I'm robbin' myself

Like I'm robbin' minds

Diamonds cerebral, be good to your cortex

Be faithful and free and just play in your vortex

I see you, Lana, you fly by the pound

Fly by the ounce

Fly to the South

Don't mind them bitches that's cleanin' my house

Lord, you can see, Lord

You see them heights that they just can't afford

I seen them lights and you made for that shit

Fuck all that cryin', you pray for that shit

But my wings don't spread like they used to

But I wanna fly with you

Till we hit the heavens

My wings don't spread like they used to

But I wanna fly with you

Till we hit the heavens

Till we hit the heavens

If I could see you, darlin'
