Baby Bird ft. Akotowaa, Massy & UZÉI Lyrics

Baby bird

You are not your own

As you grow

You're gonna have to fly

Baby bird

You are not your own

As you grow

You're gonna have to fly

They told you art would be easy

Said to look at the people succeeding

Believing family feeding wouldn't occur if you shun engineering

And you said it wasn't a big deal

Isn't life what you make it

You were just chillin'

Following feelings

Wouldn't admit it

But you never went halfway to your limits

You wanted art to be easy

Didn't want to be stretched

Making it big wasn't even the plan

Now you've been blessed with a stadium of fans

Now you got your life in your hands

And you're feeling the weight

Every drop

Millions of people are streaming on speakers

repeating every single word that you say

Baby bird

You are not your own

As you grow

You're gonna have to fly

Baby bird

You are not your own

As you grow

You're gonna have to fly

If I had a platform

I would tell you

Your government

them dey fail you

All the taxes no dey make sense

It dey go straight to their pockets

Elections dem go promise

One town, one factory

"I go do this, I go do that"

Wetin you dey wan fix?

Anaa wo wurafi' ɔman yi na yɛ wɔmu nu?

Bibiaara yɛ den

Gyesɛ yɛsɔyɛ mu

Wo na wo wɔ tumi

Agye wo kabiribi

Anaa wo wurafi' ɔman na yɛ wɔmu nu?

Baby bird

You are not your own

As you grow

You're gonna have to fly

Baby bird

You are not your own

As you grow

You're gonna have to fly

You got the power now you scared, huh?

Tapping power from the main source

Heavy duty till the day's done (dawn)

That's why they wanna cut your dreadlocks

Responsibilities, you see them in your dreams

Your aspiration don become reality

Now you for help others

All your brothers and your sisters

To build a kingdom you must go deep

Ajọji ọwọ kan o gbẹru do ri

Ajọji ọwọ kan o gbẹru do ri

Baby bird

You are not your own

As you grow

You're gonna have to fly

Baby bird

You are not your own

As you grow

You're gonna have to fly
