Sage Francis - Broken Wings Lyrics
(Chorus)Shes a fairy with broken wingsI used to watch her performAnd if she hears me I hope she sings songsThat had me going right backCouldnt find anyone in town to talkBout how no one like thatShould be confined to the ground we walkShe glides but just seems like she floatsAnd these folks decide to crush her wings until there permanently brokeShe rides gusts of wind just by the way she spokeShe crys but loves to sing songs of freedom and hopeOn the eastside hustling discussing things that we quoteIn shallow conversation as if we have deep throatsWe chokin on confusionNow show up as a heat stroke of we need coatsTrading in our cheap jokes for her c notesI see notes being passedI ask to see what these creeps wroteDefine silly kids and flying privelages revokeSki slopes have been blocked off they cant transitHad weights tied to her ankles she most definitely cant skipDown, shes held down by the transripts my hands gripTried to tie her wings back on before the ones again clipPanic stricken, shell remain stuckOn a titantic sinken, shes tryin to stay upChange her plan thinken its okSee this is strange butAbraham Lincoln freed the slaves in a way that kept them chained upI'd like to seeHer take flight into the starsInstead of letting her fly free they keep her in jarsInstead of letting fly free they keep em in jarsI put my hand to the glass so hardIt might break the prison barsIt isnt hard to see why they keep her captiveShes naturally attractiveSpeaks with adlibs, shes uncommonly talentedAint enough adjectives to do her dispotion justiceKids are wishin for just a kiss and its a mission to touch her lipstickCant trust her wit
