[Chorus: Cody ChesnuTT and Akua Naru]
Ooh, high
Watch me spread my wings and fly
To these dreams of mine
And ain't nobody bad enough to stop me (Naru)
Ooh, high (Uh, ChesnuTT)
High, high (Yeah, uh)
To fly (Oh yes)
Fly, fly (Uh)
[Verse 1: Akua Naru]
Canary dreams you know all about
Cage in a world of doubt
Given the flight less travelled, you took the only route
Brave and talked about
Made famous in the Dirty South
Talk of plantations give you cotton mouth
Others write your fate till you chirp and set the record straight
Ancient and future rage, freedom get another cage
The world can't afford your pain
Recorded by poor [?]
Back when cats used to wonder why you sing
Your story and shine as I chant and scribe
Play and pause, heard justice, rewind
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 [?]
Till the window cracked, brought you back a design
Abstract, divine, 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
[Chorus: Cody ChesnuTT and Akua Naru]
Ooh, high (Canary dreams you know all about)
Watch me spread my wings and fly
To these dreams of mine (Yeah)
And ain't nobody bad enough to stop me (Tell me)
Ooh, high (Canary dreams you know all about)
High, high
To fly (Ain't nobody bad enough)
Fly, fly
[Verse 2: Akua Naru]
Yo, despite the Lord, a darker dream in color till a fire spark
Hakeem Olajuwon, center, the words inside the heart
A work of art, Mars Phoenix
Serena Williams, stars beam at me in those dreamin' eyes of mine
Could see 'em reach, elusive, wet, deferred, nightmares reoccur
Like I'm that lonely bird content with bread crumbs on the curb
Woke up disturbed with ruffled feathers, Lord workin' my nerves
Ancestors send a message: "Yo, you better be home"
Regressions to past lives be recited in poem
Dreamin' real word, sit side by side on the throne
And architect future moments bought for thoughts in your dome
For lady saw another sycamore tree in the grove
Why enter on life stage is what ponder I 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 clouded haze
Whistlin', surely sees a angel sigh my name
[Chorus: Cody ChesnuTT and Akua Naru]
Ooh, high (ChesnuTT, you know all about)
Watch me spread my wings and fly
To these dreams of mine (Ain't nobody bad enough)
And ain't nobody bad enough to stop me (Tell me)
Ooh, high (Uh, Canary dreams you know all about)
High, high
To fly (And ain't nobody bad enough, Lord)
Fly, fly (The world is yours)
Ooh, high (ChesnuTT, you know all about)
(High, high) Ain't nobody bad enough to stop me
(To fly) Nobody bad enough to stop me
(Fly, fly) Nobody bad enough to stop me
(Ooh, high) Nobody bad enough to stop me (Canary dreams you know all about)
(High, high) Nobody bad enough to stop me
(To fly) Nobody bad enough to stop me (The world is yours)
(Fly, fly) Nobody bad enough to
