Lyrics

This is not a prison cell
This is not a prison cell
Maybe it's a chrysalis
Maybe it's a chrysalis
Maybe this is not the way it ends
Maybe this is where it all begins
This is not a dead-end street
This is not a dead-end street
Maybe it's a runway
Maybe it's a runway
Some things you only know the meaning of
When you're looking down from up above
I'm the one doing twenty to life
I'm the one at the back of the line
I'm the kid at the end of the street
I'm the one you pretend you don't see
I'm the strung-out junkie in the bathroom
Tryna make it to day two
And every minute's a war to get through
Babylon to zion
Father, light my way
Feels like bars of iron
Got me in this space
This on me how I do this
My own job or my own judas
Elevate, edify me
Or by my own hand crucify me
From a lamb to a lion
Comes a time to slay
And I got djinns and demons
Standing in my way
And though this sword, to unsheathe it
Takes an army of me it's
Forging pain into power
Comes the man comes the hour
This is not the end of me
This is not the end of me
Maybe it's a chrysalis
Maybe it's a chrysalis
Maybe this is not the way it ends
Maybe this is where it all begins
Well I got wings still folded
In my dna
And I got clay unmoulded
For these hands to shape
And something real, something righteous
Is calling me skyward
It's calling me skyward
I hear it saying
This is not a prison cell
This is not a dead-end street
This is not the end
It's a chrysalis
Some things you only know the meaning of
When you're looking down from high above
I'm the one doing twenty to life
I'm the one at the back of the line
I'm the kid at the end of the street
I'm the one you pretend you don't see
I'm the strung-out junkie in the bathroom
Tryna make it to day two
And every minute's a war to get through
But something's telling me that I
I was born to fly, yeah
I'm the hand of a ukrainian child
Reaching up through the rubble for life
I'm the one in the I.C.U
When the chemo starts to drip through
I'm the face in the mirror you see
I'm the one that you know you could be
I'm the one that you know you could be
The one telling that 'I was born to fly...'
