DMX - Let Me Fly

Either let me fly, or give me death

Let my soul rest, take my breath

If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on

But I'll be gone any day

Either let me fly, or give me death

Let my soul rest, take my breath

If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on

But I'll be gone any day

Hold me down, niggas wanna know me now

Didn't want to play with me, wanted to show me how

No meow, 'cause its all about the bark

Let the dog loose baby it's about to spark

Light up the night, like the 4th of July

Niggas know, when I let go, niggas die

'Cause why? And you don't know you slow like Baltimore

If you ain't trying to go, you blow

I soak up all the pain and accept it in silence

When I let go it's violence 'cause the wildest

Leaves the dog barking up the tree for the cat

In the fog but y'all niggas see is the bat

Flapping away but I'm blind like Stevie

Niggas don't hear me, still trying to see me

Stop being greedy, you heard what I said

Let me go, let me flow on my bed

Either let me fly, or give me death

Let my soul rest, take my breath

If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on

But I'll be gone any day

Either let me fly, or give me death

Let my soul rest, take my breath

If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on

But I'll be gone any day

I sold my soul to the devil, and the price was cheap

And yo it's cold on this level 'cause it's twice as deep

But you don't hear me, ignorance is bliss and so on

Sometimes it's better to be thought dumb

Shall I go on

You don't want no real, what the deal is a mystery

How is it I can live and make history

If you don't see it, then it wasn't meant for you to see

If you wasn't born wit' it, then it wasn't meant for you to be

But you can't blame me for not wantin' to be hound

Lock down in a cell wit' a soul gettin' dwelled

This is hell, go get the devil and get me the key

But can't be worst than the curse that was given to me

It's what I live for, you take away that and I'm gone

There's a difference between, doin' wrong and being wrong

And that ain't right

Let's keep it fair baby

Put me in the air, and I'll take it there baby (Yes)

Either let me fly, or give me death

Let my soul rest, take my breath

If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on

But I'll be gone any day

Either let me fly, or give me death

Let my soul rest, take my breath

If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on

But I'll be gone any day

I'm a flow regardless because I'm an artist until I'm trapped

I'ma continue to hit he hardest whether I scrap or rap

Give me death but you ain't my friend

I see it in your eyes, you contemplate my end

You waitin' for that bend in the road, where you were told

That you would go, when you were old

And if you died young, it was cold

So what the dilly, what it was worth

Think back 26 years, be like what of his birth

Was a miscarriage and I never existed

Have I given something that if taken away, you'd of missed it?

Didn't know, did I persisted?

It was the call of the wild

I really say what's in my heart, and you call it a style

Don't put it in the cage, don't mistreat it

You say you hunger for knowledge, here it is, eat it

Another song completed is another thought captured

Let me do my thing I got it locked wit' this rap shit

Either let me fly, or give me death

Let my soul rest, take my breath

If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on

But I'll be gone any day

Either let me fly, or give me death

Let my soul rest, take my breath

If I don't fly I'mma die anyway, I'mma live on

But I'll be gone any day

Or give me death, uh uh uh, or take my breath

I'mma die anyway, but I'll be gone any day

Or give me death, uh uh uh, or take my breath

I'mma die anyway, but I'll be gone any day
