Caged bird

By:

Alicia Keys

from album

Songs In A Minor

Print without graphics

right now i feel like a bird
Caged without a key
Everyone comes to stare at me
So much joy and revelry
They don't know how i feel inside
Through my smile i cry
They don't know what they're doing to me
Keeping me from flying

That's why i say that i know why the caged bird sings
Only joy comes from song
She's so rare and beautiful to others
But i just set her free so she can fly, fly, fly
Spreading her wings and her song
Let her fly, fly, fly, the whole world to see
Hmmm hey ooh she's like a caged bird
Fly, fly, ooh, just let her fly, just let her fly, just let her fly
Spread wings
Spread beauty
