Fly!

[Verse]
All praises to Orunmila because he taught us how
Gotta thank Olodumare 'cause he blessed us with a child
After having a miscarriage, you could bet that we both proud
Gotta thank the Iyanifa, gotta thank the Babalawo
Asé to the orisas, gotta say, "Good looking out"
Could thank 'em in your head but you should thank 'em out aloud
Thankful for the future and I'm thankful for the now
Even though this year been wild, all the shit that's going down
So unpredictable, I don't know what to expect
I don't even think a psychic know what's 'bout to come next
World is getting dangerous, I got loved ones to protect
Gave battles to his strongest soldiers, so this must be a test
Ready for war, Coronavirus made me cancel the tour
Did a song with Phife, it felt like he was passing the torch
Sad that he gone, now it's time to settle the score
The most valuable pro's putting points on the board
In an ISO, ain't nobody holding your boy
I'm a crab, feel most at peace when I'm close to the shore
Rudebwoy sound like what they love, I did that one for the core
Music's undeniable, so now I won't be ignored
Plus I'm still well connected and I don't need a cord
We upgraded to a Jeep before we drove an Accord
Only time we wore a suit was when we going to court
The few times that I smoked weed was when we'd go and record
I was socially anxious
And the weed would hold me down like a boat and an anchor
When I made my crossover, I broke a few ankles
Countin' this dough like a baker
Stackin' this gold like a banker
All the blessings I'm receiving, you know that I'm thankful
I know there's more that will come
Can't believe we 'bout to have us a daughter or son
Wifey praying for a girl 'cause that's all that she want
I'm just glad to have a kid, would prefer either one
One
[Chorus]
I'd rather put this in a song than put this on the 'Gram
It's week eight and we just got our first sonogram
We about to give my father and our moms a grand
Only way to top this is to put a ring on my girl hand
I'd rather put this in a song than put this on the 'Gram
It's week eight and we just got our first sonogram
We about to give my father and our moms a grand
Only way to top this is to put a ring on my girl hand
Fly!
