[Big Boi] All aboard! Or, are all y'all bored? It's good to have y'all back now Ladies and gents Y'all already know what it is [Sample from the movie IDLEWILD] God don't make no mistakes God don't make no mistakes [Big Boi] Little do they know when I was brought up in this game Twenty always been the five (?) so spittin' I made a change Like the diaper on the bottom of my baby daughter I wasn't ready to be no father, made me kind of ... 'Cause when I saw her, I sweat and made a tear fall Not tears of sorrow, but of joy, so listen here, y'all I grab the mic and move the crowd and disappear Dog, back in '94, that was the motherfucking year home-boy Then that Southernplayalistic went platinum, stacks on deck Claims (?) tellin' us to pay our taxes Walkin' round the table in the kitchen just for practice Reciting rhymes to sharpen mine, now (?) to the masses [Sleepy Brown (?)] It's been a good long road Now it's time for me to go I say, Goodbye (Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye) Time to spread my wings So high up in the sky I can't even fly (I fly, I fly, I fly so high) [Big Boi] Welcome to my life, I think it's time we take it back I gotta give you all the facts so you see what type of cat That you dealing with, now in ATLiens she was killin' it And then my Auntie passed, she was like my mother, I was illin' it The first person close to me to die needed healing But I see her as an angel when I look up at the ceiling Like my daddy, angry daddy, Uncle ... was steady chilin' So you gotta keep on livin' like ... the beginin' It's your birthday Even on your worst day Be like the first day I'm Antwan Andre Or General Patton if you know about ... got hurt I-I-I be on that Kryptonite That means I can't be hurt [?] Gotta leave this place It's been cool But I gotta go [Sleepy Brown (?)] It's been a good long road Now it's time for me to go I say, Goodbye (Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye) Time to spread my wings So high up in the sky I can't even fly (I fly, I fly, I fly so high) [?] Livin' on a train Shoulda asked you for remains (?) I'll be back again [Sample from the movie IDLEWILD] I know we've been through a lot, and I ain't perfect, but I swear to you, I'm a changed man. [?] Livin' on a train Shoulda asked you for remains (?) I'll be back again [Big Boi] And now it's time to say goodbye They should've turned me loose I was all about my team But now I call upon my crew I'm a family type of person But I'm deadly ... too You can achieve anything That you put your heart in to See, the second hand won't ever stop And neither will the clock Nigga Big still hit the stage By himself and still rock 'Cause when your faith is in the right place See, He ain't gon' let you flock You can say whatever you want I bet you can't do it like 'Boi Stop' [Scar] Before you say you ... Please no excuse this time Don't be afraid to fly, fly, fly You never know what day the doors will close It's time to say goodbye Time to pack up and ride, ride, ride [?] Gotta leave this place It's been cool But I gotta go [Sample from the movie IDLEWILD (?)] I can take it from here, ladies. Y'all done a good deed tonight. [Sleepy Brown (?)] It's been a good long road Now it's time for me to go I say, Goodbye (Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye) Time to spread my wings So high up in the sky I can't even fly (I fly, I fly, I fly so high) [Fade out] (Thanks to Will for these lyrics)
