Lyrics
"Stay Flyin"
By: Alexis Cleary
(Intro)
Da da da da da da~
Da da da da da da da~
(Verse 1)
Man I love my life cuz that's just me
Cuz I've been around the world and seen so many things
In the East, in the West
From the worst to the best
Now I'm in the Dirty South tryna build up on my rep
Let me bring that back to what I mean
I'ma tell you bout some things I've seen
I was living in the country when I was a little girl
We upgraded to the city and we still touring the world
From DE to VA, that's where I did stay
K-Town the Dub Grounds, this is my hometown
Overseas to Germany and HI
I be on the road, a army chick because I stay flyin
Cuz to me life is all about the miles
It don't matter if I'm traveling on the road or in the clouds
And luckily I can navigate a map
If I ever get lost, man it ain't no hap
(Chorus)
It's my life the way things will go down
I cop trips and move from town to town
It's part of my life, so I keep it tight
I live my life right, so when I move it's alright
I move like every other year
When it's time I know I have no fear
It's part of my life, and never a strife
Visions to my eyes, that's how you know I stay flyin
(Verse 2)
I don't have the stress that some may see
Cuz it's not an option and it's just too depressing
May be sad, may be glad
Mouring things I never had
Tryna better what I have when I shouldn't be mad
I don't have the time to overstress
Cuz I'm looking for a peace of mind and happiness
Keep my feet upon the ground til I got a place to go
Travel from Montego Bay to the streets of Tokyo
(That's my dream)
I ain't gotta come back to this
Living through the rainy days, tryna feel bliss
But luckily, there's always things to keep me where I need to be
So I don't go blind
To all the opportunities that follow me
Through the pain, through sunshine and rain
When I'm gone just remember my name
Just remember my name
(Chorus)
It's my life the way things will go down
I cop trips and move from town to town
It's part of my life, so I keep it tight
I live my life right, so when I move it's alright
I move like every other year
When it's time I know I have no fear
It's part of my life, and never a strife
Visions to my eyes, that's how you know I stay flyin
(Verse 3)
Everytime I look around, I think about my life
I see the things that I've been through, the pain and all the strife
And now I'm wondering just how I can make it through this life
I try to do my best and answer to the word of Christ
Now, I need my space when I'm flying high
Try to focus on my studies and not just these guys
Cuz I need a good job after teenage life
I've already seen the world, I'm ready to be a wife
Try to stay away from drama while I'm in the sky
If I get caught up, I'm probably gonna take the dive
I don't wanna be a mama at the age of 14
So I keep myself strapped cuz I wanna stay clean
Keep my head up in the sky and my anger on the ground
Once I get control of it, it can never break me down
Cuz I'm ready for the journey, hope is never dying
Let my spirit touch the sky because I stay flying
(Chorus)
It's my life the way things will go down
I cop trips and move from town to town
It's part of my life, so I keep it tight
I live my life right, so when I move it's alright
I move like every other year
When it's time I know I have no fear
It's part of my life, and never a strife
Visions to my eyes, that's how you know I stay flyin
(Outro)
