nieve & cook - blackbird lyrics

[verse 1: nieve]
yo, it’s the under minded low+down dirty rotten
most forgotten old b+st+rd, no one taught him
supposed to call him, by one name for his first to last
spit a verse and moved forward to the first in class
iconoclast, titans clash, hide the flask
hold your liquor till you’re grown and have the rite of path
a tighter math and algebraic brain function
it ain’t nothing, if you gotta question say something
if not, leave it to the grown on his golden throne
holds his own in the zone like he’s all alone
i wrote a poem but the lines in it are very twisted
ghouls and mystics, wounds self+inflicted
who’s nеxt to lift it, the sword in the stone
you ain’t еven top five on my cellular phone
how you supposed to be alive when the rest of them gone?
oh you thought your longevity’s sylvester stallone? nah

[chorus: jean curley]
blackbird fly away, you don’t have to stay
clear skies today, tomorrow could bring rain
blackbird fly away, you don’t have to stay
clear skies today, tomorrow could bring rain

[interlude: nieve]
(clapping)
thank you very much. stop that. no, stop that. no, please. too kind
[verse 2: nieve]
smoky rooms, the jazz club’s own perfume
the sax man has a little blunt inside his hat, man
the tip jar got a dime and three dollars
a picture of his wife, his son, and his three daughters
illumination, the moonlight moves in phases
sorta like we do in the most difficult of situations
who’s to say this isn’t the way
so until the early morning the musicians will play
keep it mellow as an upright bass
hear the tenor saxophone speak the language that one might say
paint the pictures that one might paint
if they had a little lost cause you know who’s the top boss
rock stars, but my style is more be+bop
my homie fat tony on the drums, i call him beat box
write my lyrics with the blackbird’s feather
sit back and try to capture tigers in red weather

[outro: nieve]
yeah, thank y’all for coming out, i hope you enjoyed the show
my name’s nieve, i’ll be here all night
make sure to tip your producer too
