Little Bird

by Jasmine Cephas Jones

Lyrics
Little lady sittin' there
Hold out her fingers while she combs her hair
Lookin' through the mirror lost world behind her
Uncomfortable in her skin
Pick a color, to box her in
Too scared, to let the fire

So I say, oh, don't
Just a minute
It won't be long
Just a minute 'til you fly
Oh oh oh
So I say, oh, don't
Just a minute
It won't be long
Just a minute 'til you fly

Wish I could could tell ya
Who breaks your heart
Or the grass is greener when you don't wanna a boy no, no
See life, will bring you down
But your fire is blazing' out

So I say, oh, don't
Just a minute
It won't be long
Just a minute 'til you fly
Oh oh oh
So I say, oh, don't
Just a minute
It won't be long
Just a minute 'til you fly

Little bird, it's time
Wings spread open wide
Daddy said, walk on the wild side

So I say, oh, don't
Just a minute (just a minute)
It won't be long
Just a minute 'til you fly
Oh oh oh
So I say, oh, don't
Just a minute
It won't be long 'til you fly
Fly
Fly
