BIRDS Country Rap.Southern Remix
- DUB3030
- [Intro –0:00–0:12]
- (Acoustic guitar, birds chirping)
- Yeah, yeah, whoa oh
- Small town boy with a big ol' dream,
- Dust on my boots, still chasing that green.
- They say the sky ain't got no end,
- So I'm spreading my wings again.
- [Chorus –0:12–0:36]
- I'm flying with the birds, way up in the sky,
- Got a little dirt road running through my mind.
- Wings wide open, ain't afraid to fall,
- I was born down low, now I'm standing tall.
- Whoa oh, let that freedom ring,
- Country boy heart with a wild side dream.
- If the whole world burns, I'll still find my way,
- Like the birds flying south on a cold November day.
- [Verse 1 –0:36–1:12]
- Raised where the cornfields touch the sunset,
- Old Ford truck, got a few regrets.
- Mama said, "Son, don't you lose your soul,"
- Daddy said, "Work hard, let the good Lord know."
- Had a couple fake friends turn their backs,
- Had a little heartbreak riding in the back.
- Had a pocket full of nothing, tank running dry,
- Still had a million dollar dream in my eyes.
- Moonshine nights by a bonfire flame,
- Everybody leaves, but the dirt stays the same.
- I've been through the rain, I've been through the cold,
- Got a thousand little stories that ain't been told.
- And I ain't got a mansion, ain't got no gold,
- Just a beat up Bible and a heart full of hope.
- When the whole world tells me I won't get far,
- I look up at the birds, then I follow the stars.
- [Chorus –1:12–1:36]
- I'm flying with the birds, way up in the sky,
- Got a little dirt road running through my mind.
- Wings wide open, ain't afraid to fall,
- I was born down low, now I'm standing tall.
- Whoa oh, let that freedom ring,
- Country boy heart with a wild side dream.
- If the whole world burns, I'll still find my way,
- Like the birds flying south on a cold November day.
- [Verse 2 –1:36–2:12]
- Got a little whiskey burning in my chest,
- Trying to make peace with the things I regret.
- I lost some people that I wish were here,
- Now I talk to the stars when the night gets clear.
- Everybody wants fame, everybody wants gold,
- I just want a little peace when I'm growing old.
- A porch with a view and somebody to hold,
- And a story worth telling when my hair turns old.
- I've been running from the past, leaving tracks in the mud,
- Trying to turn these tears into something I love.
- Got a heart full of scars, but it still beats strong,
- I learned how to fly when the road went wrong.
- So raise one up for the ones we've lost,
- For the dreams we chased and the lines we crossed.
- No cage can hold what was born to be free,
- Them birds in the sky got a whole lot like me.
- [Bridge –2:12–2:25]
- (Beat drops out, acoustic guitar)
- Oh, carry me home where the wild winds blow,
- Where the river runs deep and the tall pines grow.
- If I ever get lost, let the sunset shine,
- I'll follow those birds to a better life.
- [Final Chorus –2:25–2:40]
- I'm flying with the birds, way up in the sky,
- Got a little dirt road running through my mind.
- Wings wide open, ain't afraid to fall,
- I was born down low, now I'm standing tall.
- Whoa oh, let that freedom ring,
- A country boy's heart still chasing his dream.
- [Outro –2:40–2:45]
- (Guitar fades, birds chirping)
- Yeah, I'm finally free...
- Just like the birds...
- Flying home.
