Pretty Little Birds lyrics

[Verse 1: SZA]

You are but a phoenix among feathers

You're broken by the waves among the sea

They'll let you die, they'll let you wash away

But you swim as well as you fly

[Chorus 1: SZA]

Pretty little bird

Pretty little bird

You've hit the window a few times

The window a few times

You're pretty little bird

Pretty little bird

You still ain't scared of no heights

When the spiral down feels as good as the flight

When hating you feels good for the night

When the morning comes I hope you're still mine

[Post-Chorus 1: SZA]

When the morning comes

If the morning comes

When the morning comes

If the morning comes

When the morning comes

If the morning comes

When the morning comes

If the morning comes

[Verse 2: SZA]

Told you I like gentle giants so you softened up

And you been jack'n, bean'n, stalk'n just to get to me love

I wanna be your golden goose

I wanna shave my legs for you

I wanna take all of my hair down and let you lay in it

Spread all of my limbs out and let you lay in it

[Chorus 2: SZA]

Pretty little birds

Pretty little birds

Do you mean every word you mean, every word?

Pretty little girls

Pretty little girls

We hit the window a few times (the wall)

[Post-Chorus 2: SZA]

I can't stay

But I would lay

But I would

I would

[Verse 3: Isaiah Rashad]

Lately I feel like I'm robbin' myself

Like I'm robbin' mines

Diamond cerebral peek into your cortex

Be faithful and free and just play in your vortex

I see you 'Lana, you fly by the pound

Fly by the ounce, fly to the south

Don't mind them bitches that's cleanin' my house

Lord, you can see, lord

You see them heights that they just can't afford

I see them lights and you made for that shit

Fuck all that cryin', you pray for that shit

[Outro: SZA & Isaiah Rashad]

But my wings don't spread like they used to

But I wanna fly with you

('Til we hit the heavens)

But my wings don't spread like they used to

But I wanna fly with you

('Til we hit the heavens

'Til we hit the heavens)
