Eagles Lyrics

I'm just tryna soar like an eagle

I'm just tryna soar like an eagle

I'm just tryna soar like an eagle

I'm just tryna…

Look

Lethal, I'm from where the man are lethal

For the money, the love of it evil

The streets killing all my people

Still I gotta soar like an eagle

Legal, weren't always doing it legal

But pops said I gotta stay away from evil

Cos the streets, they be killing my people

So I gotta soar like an eagle

Tried be a baller like dem man

Taller racks just like dem man

Risking freedom is what they do for them bands

Still I was raised not to be like them man

But getting bands is still how the boy's feeling

Them man be thieving

And though these hands, they don't know about the dealing

The need for the lizzy made it hard But I can't condone them man scheming

Was raised not to condone it

And my heart there, no I couldn't let the money control it

Still I went through a phase where, see my number, if it ain't about the money, don't phone it

This road's been a tight one

Bun a bad choice, ever been vexed making the right one

I tried to graft, I tried making a way, like Christ, can you provide one?

Look

Lethal, I'm from where the man are lethal

For the money, the love of it evil

The streets killing all my people

Still I gotta soar like an eagle

Legal, weren't always doing it legal

But pops said I gotta stay away from evil

Cos the streets, they be killing my people

So I gotta soar like an eagle

I said I'm just tryna soar, and I know aunties still sore, she's got, got a son doing this bird

Was always told to not follow no herd

But bad environment can corrupt what you heard

Mummy's words, yeah, man heard them

Stuck in a pickle, do what you gotta do

Many guys, they don't care if it hurts them

You'd think it's either a bird or this burden

Never bumped guys, but I bumped these journeys

I took the long road, I couldn't bump this journey

Perseverance in my genes from early

Bros got packs in his jeans, man his vision's blurry

I be here praying that Jesus free them

Cos my bros out here risking his freedom

Empty mouths, they're tryna feed them

Lord save my brothers, cos I need them

Look

Lethal, I'm from where the man are lethal

For the money, the love of it evil

The streets killing all my people

Still I gotta soar like an eagle

Legal, weren't always doing it legal

But pops said I gotta stay away from evil

Cos the streets, they be killing my people

So I gotta soar like an eagle
