[00:03.69][Verse 1 - Jussie Smollett:]
[00:04.57]Open your eyes to what you love to hate
[00:10.49]You're up in the sky but you ain't flying straight
[00:16.44]Where do I go when I can't go home?
[00:22.63]Cause you sold it, and you lost yourself in you are just no more
[00:28.57]Take every piece, every piece of me
[00:34.59]Whatever you need, my mind is changing
[00:40.47]And I can't hide no, but you know where I'll be
[00:46.45]Mother
[00:48.81][Hook - Jussie Smollett:]
[00:50.90]I know
[00:54.00]I said I didn't need it, I said I wasn't built for it
[01:00.00]But now that I can see it, damn right I really made it for this
[01:05.14]Chasing the sky, trying to fly
[01:13.62]And now I see
[01:17.79]Just why you had to be so hard for me
[01:23.77]You'll hear my roar then fill your legacy
[01:29.70]Here to the sky, no choice but to fly, so high, so high, so high
[01:33.77][Verse 2 - Yazz:]
[01:39.47]Blood is supposed to be thicker than water is
[01:41.80]Nowadays we can't even stomach the thought of it
[01:44.67]It's like we can't even get along, who right and who in the wrong?
[01:48.03]Too busy pointing fingers like it's politics
[01:50.70]I tell you shut up, you tell me be quiet, too much dysfunction
[01:54.07]Cut up like we at a riot, kicking and punching
[01:57.27]Ain't nobody here to mediate it
[02:00.12]And you would think that we wasn't even related
[02:03.88]Why are we even throwing blows in the first place?
[02:05.36]We fight at cook outs, picnics and birthdays
[02:08.35]I tried to give the benefit but in the worst case
[02:11.19]You keep on talking smack, you end up with a hurt face
[02:14.85]And we tried everything, it's time for plan B
[02:17.12]If Bloods and Crips can reconcile, why can't we?
[02:20.60]I guess I'm ratchet like my mama and my poppa
[02:23.26]I'm chasing the sky and I ain't talking 'bout the vodka, let's fly
[02:25.64][Verse 3 - Terrence Howard:]
[02:26.32]Far from a perfect man
[02:29.94]The fights and the lies, I guess you never understand
[02:35.74]A mother and father who wanted for you much more than
[02:41.52]Life is a slight of hand, if you hate it today
[02:44.81]I've a lot for you, if there's one thing that it's true
[02:49.87][Verse 4 - Jussie Smollett:]
[02:50.47]Going all alone, I can't even trust all the people here inside my home
[02:59.60]And if you were my brother, then never let it get so wrong
[03:05.81]That you turn your back on what we were
[03:09.36]Turn your back on me, on your family, no
[03:14.38][Hook - Jussie Smollett:]
[03:14.93]I know
[03:16.73]I said I didn't need it, I said I wasn't built for it
[03:21.86]But now that I can see it, damn right I really made it for this
[03:29.40]Chasing the sky, trying to fly
[03:38.01]And now I see
[03:41.91]Just why you had to be so hard for me
[03:48.37]You'll hear my roar then fill your legacy
[03:54.07]Here to the sky, no choice but to fly, so high, so high, so high
[04:04.72]
