Fabolous - Black Bird lyrics

rate me

[Intro: Fabolous]

And she know we killing em

And some people don’t like it, but she still feeling ‘im

My black bird

And she know we killing em

And he ain’t always right, but she still feeling ‘im

I’mma need you to spread your wings

And fly away with me, baby

[Verse 1]

I’m John Dilli

You play Billie

Ride to that Soul Tape — “Y’all don’t really

Hear me though, y’all don’t really hear me though”

Long as I’m with you, babe, it don’t matter where we go, yo

Yellow chick, she no canary though

That’s my blackbird, she clearly Crow

We met a year ago and you been looking sexy since

Think your E’s for “effort”, you get E’s for excellence

Black excellence, you in all-black

You know who she with, you should fall back

When I was down, baby, you knew I’d crawl back

And when I lost you, you knew I’d call back

Hello? Hey doll, it’s me

Never lockouts when you play ball with me

And it’s consequences but she understands

That she riding with a wanted man

[Hook: Broadway]

I don’t care about what they gon’ say

You already what they gon’ play

You my black bird, that ain’t gon’ change

I need you to spread your wings

To fly away with me, baby

That’s my black bird

I need you to fly away with me, baby

That’s my black bird

[Verse 2]

We at the safe house, hiding out

Cause all eyes be on us when we sliding out

What if we could get out of here altogether?

Don’t pack no bags when we land, hit the mall, whatever

You and me now, no more what you call a job

Gotta take what you want in life, some people call it rob

I get to the money, minute forty seconds flat

It ain’t hard to tell, so we expecting rats

But it’s me and you against the world

Feel like the odds is in our favor

The smart money’s on my baby girl

When others fear, we are at our bravest

Back at it not a hour later

It must suck being our neighbors

And it’s consequences, but she understands

That she riding with a wanted man

[Hook]
