Sky is the probably the only super uplifting song you will find on the EP, yet it still circles around the common theme of obsession.
lyrics
(Verse)
They told me that my dreams weren't real
I showed them all just how I feel
Now they say it isn't fair
I'm way up here, they're still down there
So why do you let people run your life
They will tell you lies
Lead you to the ground and keep you there
They'll suppress your wings
Keep you from doing major things
Come with me and I will help you
(Chorus)
Fly, in the sky, way up high
High in the sky, we will
Fly, high in the sky, watch me
Fly, high in the sky, see you there
(Verse)
I live my life above the crowd
They rant and rave and get real loud
That's not the life I want to lead
Come with me if you agree
People seem to lose their minds
When they see how easy it is for you to reach your prime
So why do you let people run your life
They will tell you lies
Lead you to the ground and keep you there
They'll suppress your wings
Keep you from doing major things
Come with me and I will help you
(Chorus)
Fly, in the sky, way up high
High in the sky, we will
Fly, high in the sky, watch me
Fly, high in the sky, see you...
(Rap)
Spent a long time trying be something that I wasn't
Worried about friends thinking I wasn't 100
Wasted a good years city life thugin
Can't enjoy the world sitting around doing nothing
Grinding every day trying to perfect my image
Never realized that your life styles' a gimmick
Honestly gotta admit it, your style is restricted
I'm focused on my craft, you worried about women
I'm in this for life, you just hear for the seasons
People hate on everybody, they don't need reasons
Drag you into drama, delay you with their problems
Like I wanna know what's wrong with you baby momma (..You She Be Buggin)
They ask "how you doin" can't stand to hear the answer
Reply that "I'm awesome" and watch them leave faster
The face of resentments' a photo you should capture
Can't stand that I'm ballin', DeRozan Raptors
So why do you let people run your life
They will tell you lies
Lead you to the ground and keep you there
They'll suppress your wings
Keep you from doing major things
Come with me and I will help you
(Chorus 4x)
Fly, in the sky, way up high
High in the sky, we will
Fly, high in the sky, watch me
Fly, high in the sky, see you...
(ad-lib)
I want you to fly away
Forget what they say
Forget what they do
Just fly away
Fly away
Fly away
Fly...
