| Hey, I made a promise to myself, I said I’d trust me
 | 
| Know that God done chose my wealth, I adjust, he
 | 
| I was so stuck up in a funk, it was hard to just get up
 | 
| But then I ate away the bump, then I was set free
 | 
| Lawdy! | 
| I’m set free, nothin' can touch me
 | 
| Even when the road of life, it get bumpy
 | 
| I be chillin' with my trues, sneakers for my shoes
 | 
| Never slip sideways, all I do is sing blues
 | 
| Used to mash the gas, now controls set on cruise
 | 
| Used to need a breezy, now it sound like old news
 | 
| Years passin' by, but the faces in the crew
 | 
| Man, they always stay the same, keep it tight, I thought you knew?
 | 
| And I’m feelin' so thankful, my cup runneth…
 | 
| Over, gettin' closer to the summit
 | 
| In this lifetime, givin' y’all all that I can
 | 
| Feel the memories and words in the heart of a man, yeah
 | 
| It’s so unusual
 | 
| Cause I feel so fly today
 | 
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s somethin' beautiful
 | 
| Lifts Me Up, I fly away, yeah, yeah, yeah
 | 
| Lucky labeled me the Duke of Earl
 | 
| But now that seems like a past life, shoot, you could twirl
 | 
| When eighty, but baby, me I’m not a ballerina
 | 
| Maybe I was crazy, I learned a lot and seen a
 | 
| Large portion of the globe, though
 | 
| Old habits, rabbit like, now I enjoy it more and probe slow
 | 
| Keep goin' up, I feel the synergy
 | 
| Created with my woman since '98 'til Infinity
 | 
| And Zion I, by and by, see eye to eye
 | 
| A Legend’s work is never done, we try and try
 | 
| I heard it said, that things go in cycles
 | 
| The way that I’mma work it, pay attention to the light bulbs
 | 
| Be rightful, owners upon us
 | 
| The next moments, check your vitals, the bone isn’t so much
 | 
| Don’t go nuts before you turn to accumulate
 | 
| Your greatest gifts, learn to appreciate
 | 
| It’s so unusual
 | 
| Cause I feel so fly today
 | 
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s somethin' beautiful
 | 
| Lifts Me Up, I fly away, yeah, yeah, yeah
 | 
| It’s so unusual
 | 
| Cause I feel so fly today
 | 
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s somethin' beautiful
 | 
| Lifts Me Up, I fly away, yeah, yeah, yeah |
