Omens
[Intro: Kai, Dillmatic]
Spread your wings
Fly to fly
Fly, fly (ISO)
Yeah
[Chorus: Dillmatic]
Spread your wings, spread your wings, we gon' let it fly
I'm writin' this to my younger self, I won't let you down
Manifest, I'll manifest I'ma let it shine
I spoke into existence, now I'm claimin' mine
Just a ribbon in the sky, black boy joy
Used by talent to get by, I don't need a coy
If this the fruits of my labor, then I'ma enjoy
What we built from the ground up, nah, they can't destroy
Spread your wings, spread your wings, we gon' let it fly
I'm writin' this to my younger self, I won't let you down
Manifest, I'll manifest I'ma let it shine
I spoke into existеnce, yeah
[Verse 1: Dillmatic]
I've been seein' my omеns happen right before my eyes
Learnt to live in the moment, I'd rather try before I die
Know that feelin' of broken, I know that feelin' of cryin'
I know that feelin' of hopeless, I know that' feelin' of lyin'
When you bein' more open and they keep shootin' you down
All the times you was copin' and all the times you was clowned
Turned the tables on the frown and now they watchin' us smile
Took us time, man, I promise you it's gon' be worthwhile
They said, "Dill, you shouldn't rap," they said, "Ant, you shouldn't rap", but, um
And now we did it together, they tryna do a track with him
Hah-hah, how ironic, tie-dye
Poopy goin' up out the circle and now you nada
Y'all niggas is bozos, same niggas that be diggin' the logo
And commentin' up under my girl photos
Seein' 'em in person and they a no-show, 'cause that's all they'll ever be
Still up on this journey to a legacy, you feel me? I
[Chorus: Dillmatic]
Spread your wings, spread your wings, we gon' let it fly
I'm writin' this to my younger self, I won't let you down
Manifest, I'll manifest I'ma let it shine
I spoke into existence, now I'm claimin' mine
Just a ribbon in the sky, black boy joy
Used by talent to get by, I don't need a coy
If this the fruits of my labor, then I'ma enjoy
What we built from the ground up, nah, they can't destroy
[Verse 2: ConchezYout]
No sympathy for the snakes and Nipsey Hustle the great
Me and my nigga straight, we cuttin' straight to the chase
These niggas is full of hate, all the love we just embrace
They know we finna be great, we used to be comin' late
Now we first place, tryna be some legends in our birthplace (Brooklyn)
Tally up the survey, none of these niggas worthy
Tryna create a legacy on this journey (Uh-huh)
Focused on myself, what these niggas do, it don't concern me (It don't)
Livin' and we learnin' and watchin' the tables turnin'
Grossin' up our earnings, our blessings is well deservin' (It's comin')
Livin' out our purpose, no doubt, we more determined (Uh-huh?)
Listenin' to sermons, early mornin' while I'm burnin' (Crazy high)
A message to my younger self: "Do this shit yourself, you don't need no help (You don't)
Redevelop your brand and you'll see the wealth (ISO)
Workin' with the cards that's dealt, they know our music real, it ain't hard to tell
Niggas only know you when you sign a deal, that's how y'all feel?
[Interlude: Dillmatic]
You know what I mean? You gon' lay in tonight
You not gon' get away with nothin', in terms of the energy
You know what I mean? You might beat the-the camera or the police
They might not catch you for what you doin'
But the energy's all you gonna turn to
So when you, when you was livin' in this-in this of bein' negative all day and just-
Puttin' out negativity-and-and, that's the only energy you puttin' out
[Chorus: Dillmatic]
Spread your wings, spread your wings, we gon' let it fly
I'm writin' this to my younger self, I won't let you down
Manifest, I'll manifest I'ma let it shine
I spoke into existence, now I'm claimin' mine
Just a ribbon in the sky, black boy joy
Used by talent to get by, I don't need a coy
If this the fruits of my labor, then I'ma enjoy
What we built from the ground up, nah, they can't destroy
[Outro: Dillmatic]
So I was just like, you know
Master your energy, do your best to master your energy and your-and what you put out
You know, and
Um...
Unless that's what you want
You know, 'cause, you-you entitled to whatever you wanna create
Whatever experience you want to create for yourself
But if you tired of that, adjust the energy
You know what I mean, as best you can, adjust-adjust what you wake up thinkin' and what you say
