A Caged Bired Lyrics — Alicia Keys

Right now I feel like a bird
Caged without a key,
Everyone comes to stare at me
So much joy and revelry.

They don't know how I feel inside
Through my smile I cry;
They don't know what they're doing to me
Keepin me from flying.

That's why I say that I know why a caged bird sings,
Only joy comes from song,
She's so rare and beautiful to others;
Why not just set her free

So she can fly fly fly
Spreading her wings and her song,
Let her fly fly fly
And the whole world to see

She's like a caged bird
fly fly
shoulda let her fly
shoulda let her fly
should let her fly
spread wings spread beauty

mmmmm
