I can't eat, I can't sleep
'Cause I know they'll be watching me
Descending on the breeze
These shadows keep falling down on me
Yeah
Blackbirds all around, see snakes in the grass
I'm surprised they ain't found me
Stay strong with your boundaries
Never know who infiltrate your surroundings
And I know how I'm sounding
Cynical, but I'm to the point like a pinnacle
It's never what you say but how you say it, that's the principle
I'm invincible with like-minded individuals, so yeah
I remain transparent but that's just so we're clear
Your enemy's bad habit's a friend and so beware
I been dealing more pragmatic than traumatic lately
But baby my demons survived that reiki
And so will yours, not a matter of when
It's a matter of why and all that matters begin
So will you sink or fly?
Relive the nightmare again
Or will you learn all the lessons so your story can end?
Where there was one before
Now there are many
And as the days go by
I see them multiply
I can't eat, I can't sleep
'Cause I know they'll be watching me
Descending on the breeze
These shadows keep falling down on me
On me
There's a blackbird
In my garden
Mo, oh
There's a blackbird
In my garden
Mo, oh
Yeah
Righteous, I stay on my righteous when I speak *** hard to digest
Always branching out but never water my own fight 'cause
Testing me too much might knock your conscience to a sidekick
Dreaming 'bout my flight kick I might just
Forget what I learned about my clarity
Rage out, taking my coins back from charity
Just so I can purchase a gun, excuse my profanity
At this point who was an enemy or a fan of me?
They both in the line of fire, anxiety-ridden
I need a lung for hire just to hold my breath
I feel like I got nothing left
I give it all on the paper, every page my chest
Every word my best, every verse I whipped
Just to celebrate successes, only curses I kept
Sometimes it feels like I deserve this mess
But the *** that I hold never let me rest, uh
Yeah yeah
There's a blackbird
In my garden
Mo, oh
There's a blackbird
In my garden
Mo, oh
