    Fly (the Lonely Shepherd)

    by: Lamar

    Fly (Come and fly with me)
    Chorus:
    Fly, tryin reach a star, flying high and oh so far
    Fly, come and fly with me
    Oooh, fly with the fantasy to the land of extacy
    Fly away with me
    Rap 1:
    Hard times in the ghetoo yo it´s time to slow up,little man on the block with the plans to blow up
    You cane make it out of the ghetto if you reach for the stars
    When the times´re getiing ruff , just think with your heart
    Love is all around and sometimes it´s covered with hate
    The more love, the less violence and the feeling is great
    Sometimes, I fly with my eyes closed and vision my path
    When my eyes start to open I can see what I passed
    One day I took the wrong road and letting the pain
    Now I learn from my mistaked and it won´t happen again
    Heard the gun shots pass the scene, bodys desceased
    And I reach deep inside my soul so I can still preach peace
    We all need to fly and keep our hads to the sky
    And now I promise to help the needing ´til the day that I´ll de
    Womder why the queen died, cause forever you´re more
    And I spread my wings and fly because life goes on
    Chorus x 1
    Fly away…
    Chorus x 1
    Rap 2:
    Flying high to a place that´s far beond our site
    At night I see a light and forever it´s bright
    When the street are going on violence and they even know work
    When I spread my wings sometime, starting feel like a bird
    Little man with the gun, little girl with the knife
    Tell them down look the sky and you can follow my flight
    Cause there ain´t nothing in the streets but distruction and death
    And my plan to save the world is on the knowledge and trust
    Keep your eyes on the good things that life can offer
    Everuday I´m giving thanks for my mother and father
    Tought me how to keep flying, when I´m rapidly change
    If I feel I can´t make it, then call on his name
    We all gonna fly, it´s just a matter of time
    On the dropping of my love, I hope it falls on your mind
    And the fence for your support is nothing but love
    And together we´ll fly to the heavens above
    Chorus x 2
