Luyện nghe bài hát Caged Bird

[Intro: J.
Yeah, bird
like a caged bird
Caged
Yeah,

1: J. Cole]
You ain't a man you stop chasing your friends, my nigga
Think for yourself, your own plans, my nigga
be lying if I said I ain't understand, my nigga
Cause who you gon' follow when the all get swallowed
By reefer clouds and
In and out of jail
This is hell, see the young males in packed cells
With they down
And they fists clenched
Thinking "I could a hole through this wall
And I just might"
just like the caged bird I sing a song
Hoping they open up these bars and send a home
I cry when I'm
I'm why would God send me here
Knowing that they us
Knowing they make us feel like we evil so we kill our people
Without a second thought, in every lesson by OGs
We full of real wisdom, so we proceed
Like real niggas who stripped of our humanity
I see the judge's eyes, I that he ain't understanding me

[Hook: J.
A caged (Yeah, a caged bird)
(Let this little caged bird sing) bird

And can you find peace you released
filled up wit' rage
Back on the streets just to that you still in the cage

With a on my lap
a shorty on the way coming shortly to protect
I could've been a in the party with the X
But I'm hardly in the mix and I confess
I definitely got a couple parts in me that I
Is the cup or is it half-full?
I mine up with Hennessy, then get back to him
I'm just a jazz trapped in a rap form
You think you standing for something you on a trap
Well the, Mr. Introspective
I'm a dream, a sort of an inception
I never fiend for the scene but I dreamed of the
That a Mercedes brings, like slow sex fast women
Drinking cognac I'm grinning
A dress, fat ass in it
But still hit it I'm half-winded
niggas tell me I'm the shit
Well I be hitting all these
See I'm caged by the of the blind
I started as a
Turned to a
Put us in our
We was to entertain
Thinking bout the present day I'm living off the
if a nigga ever get up out this cage
As I
