Nelly - Fly Away lyrics

[Nelly Talking]
Free City
This is a shout out to every young brother ya know
Thats doin his thing right now
Keep ya head up...
Hes walkin the yard wishin he had wings
Ya know so he could fly up out that joint
Man

[Intro]
If I could, fly away
Ooo and I wouldn't come back no more
I, I,d turn around,
Just to see you for the last time,
See,now I know
Hey, that it won't be easy
I done fought in a battle, and I done made it this far
I gotta few more feet, but its still the longest yard

[Verse 1]
Man, it's the longest yard i ever had to get in my life
And see my life ain't right, if my wife don't write
My niggas can't eat if the fish don't bite
Might raise the gross sales, like Mike and Ike
Now big brother almighty
I keep a gamma ray, I'ma G-5 G
Take a G-5 jeep, G-5 deep
Too some of their bare feet
And thet deep don't speak
Listen maybe they lock it down right herre
See body bag and gag and your found right herre
This as serious as it sounds right herre
The guards guard the ground, 4 pounds right herre
And they ain't playin, their just lettin you know
That anything they want to happen, niggahappen real slow
Get the word from upstairs, put you in that hole
I can't take it, I'm justready to go

[Chorus]
If I could, fly away
Ooo and I wouldn't come back no more
I, I'd turn around,
Just to see you for the last time,
See, now I know
Hey that it won't be easy
I done fought in a battle, and done made it this far
I gotta few more feet, but its still the longest yard
Yeah yeah, its still the longest yard
Uh uh, its still the longest yard
Um um, its still the longest yard
I done fought in a battle and I done made it this far

[Verse 2]
I'm in my cell 2
