[HOOK]
Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, yeah
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, ooh
[VERSE 1: ESHAM]
It's a new day
A true day
A sky blue day
It's a new life
One-way ticket to Paradise
But where you come from
Straight outta Hell, son
You can't tell from the smoke
And the smell, son
The Devil upset
He won't be backin' it
These n***as going crazy
They don't know how to act in it
(You might have everything figured out)
But me, see
I took a different route
I didn't go to church
The preacher not my friend
Me and my fifth-grade teacher
We havin' sex again
Only essay I ever wrote
Was a Mexican
I'm knockin' on Heaven's doors
But they won't let me in
They say you from Detroit
You Hell-bound
They got me feeling like [Case?]
Almost spellbound
Am I alive or dead
I can't tell now
Only thing I got is my soul left
For sale now
[HOOK]
Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, yeah
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, ooh
[VERSE 2: MASTAMIND]
It's a new life
I'm just tryin' to do right
You know, do what I do
And let you say who's nice
Who's your favorite
Who cares, you can save it
I'm on some gettin' paid shit
Not to be played with
Love it or hate it
From the city where the Devil busy
I'll be damned
If I let these suckers outlive me
Stay on my toes
Even when I'm tipsy
No label to give me
No category you could fit me
I say "fuck it" everyday
So ain't no pity
Knockin' on Hell's doors
Like they know it's me
Why do I feel so D-E-A-D
When I been spittin' shit so crazy lately
Alive and well
Feel like killin' myself
Feel like I'm on death row
Inside a cell
Just spittin' truthfully
As I usually do
Fuck the foolery
It ain't like it used to be
Say hello to the new me
[HOOK]
Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, yeah
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, ooh
[OUTRO]
Yeah, it's that new shit
It's a new day
You know me
The only thing I want old
Is some motherfuckin' money
I'm all with the new-new
Droppin' that shit
That doodoo
Funkier than a motherfucker
Newer than a motherfucker
Just wakin' up
The afterlife
