Caged Bird Lyrics by MDQ

SHE

2018

I know why
The caged bird sings
I know, what it means
Wanting to be free
Wanting to be healed
Wanting to be whole
Wanting to be me
I remember
What my mother said
Who will love someone like you
On the Tv news, always looking loose, always semi-nude
What man could make a home of you

Chorus
If I made her right
I couldn’t make it
Living in a nightmare
So I gave it up
I love myself
There’s nobody who’s bringing me down
I love myself
There’s just me and myself and I

Revolution
I became my own friend
You can’t tell me nothing
I am through with sufferin’
Always feelin blue
Always so confused
Always feeling used
Nothing ever good
Never in the mood
No!
I bless these hands
My mighty hands
That pulled me
And lifted me out
Of self doubt
And self hate
And made it safe
Really safe
To be myself

Chorus
If I made her right
I couldn’t make it
Living in a nightmare
So I gave it up
I love myself
There’s nobody who’s bringing me down
I love myself
There’s just me and myself and I


I love myself
You can tell me nothing
Tell me nothing
