Akua Naru – Canary Dreams lyrics

[Hook: Cody ChesnuTT]
Ooh, ah! Watch me spread my wings and fly to these dreams of mine
Ain't nobody bad enough to stop me

[Verse 1: Akua Naru]
Canary dreams you know all about
Cage know all the [?]
Given the flight less travelled you took the only route
Brave and talked about
Made famous in the Dirty South
Talk of plantations gave you cotton mouth
Others write your fate til you chirp and set the record straight
[?] free and get another cage
Broke can't afford your pain
Recorded by poor [?] who [?] back
When cats used to wonder why you sing
Your story and shine as I chant this cry
Playing [?] is required
The fast-forward you gotta fly
"How high?" said the wing to the sky
Who you think put that seed in your mind?
Perched upon the [?]
Til the window cracked, brought you back in design
Abstract the vine Maya Michelangelo kind
Painted on the poster morning porch is spoken in rhyme
Nas told you the world is yours, just open your eyes
It's like


[Hook: Cody ChesnuTT]
Ooh, ah! Watch me spread my wings and fly to these dreams of mine
Ain't nobody bad enough to stop me

[Verse 2: Akua Naru]
Yo, to spite the Lord a darker dream a color fire spark
Hakeem Olajuwon sent to the world [?]
A work of art [?]
Serena Williams stars beam at me in those dreaming eyes of mine
Could see 'em reach elusive [?] deferred, nightmares reoccur
Like I'm that lonely bird content with bread crumbs on the curb
Woke up to stir a [?] in my nerves
Ancestors send a message: "Yo, you better be home"
[?] to past lives be recited in poem
Dreaming real word sit side by side on the throne
And architect future moments bought the thoughts in your dome
For lady saw another sycamore tree in the grove
[?] on stage is what ponder these days
After grandma came in the night with a question to raise
"It's not the picture baby, challenge the frame"
And disappeared in a cloud [?]
Surely see a angel [?]

[Hook: Cody ChesnuTT]
Ooh, ah! Watch me spread my wings and fly to these dreams of mine
Ain't nobody bad enough to stop me
