Lyrics

Salutations citizens of this wonderful and broken world
If you have received this broadcast your status has been verified as certified fly 
And we just want to remind you, to see yourself in the best light
Coz theres a fine line between perception and reality
Stay fly
Stay fly famalam
The whole flex is kinda godly, godly
At my best I'm a legend like Nesta Marley, Marley
The present's a blessing, I'm living proudly, proudly
Far from where I started but I'm hardly close enough to where I gotta be
My value can't be quantified in any currency 
See how they got you equating your worth with a salary
The people where I'm from know Ubuntu's the code
Success inseparable from the community's goals
While screens and magazines bash your self esteem
To snatch your cream, loving self's an exercise in the extreme
In the morning, smile at the reflection in the mirror
Watch what my spirit consumes so my perception is clearer 
Contend with images, fashioned from hate and ignorance
Meant to imprison in a state that negates your brilliance
They bruising your pride diffusing illusions and lies
Remain anchored in the truth so I can say, so I can say
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, I'm too fly 
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, I'm too fly 
Now you might think I'm saying, my threads emblazoned with a famous name
Or my bank account insane with the money I can claim
Or that I rock a heavy chain, or I own a lot of thangs
But it ain't about that, now listen, how can I explain
It's more than just about the physical manifestation
It's an inner vibe like a spiritual calibration 
While they keep on trying to have you chasing their validation
For your very existence, resistance the mission statement
See how phone notifications start to feel like a drug
Some might try to get you down so they can feel they above
My internal conversation tuned to keeping me up
Original, standing apart from this derivative stuff
We living as husks, the systems corrupt keeping us stuck
Imprisoned potential's released if you believe and you trust
Stay grounded in your roots and keep your view to the sky
And if you anchored in the truth, you're gonna say, you're gonna say
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, I'm too fly 
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, I'm too fly 
I'm enough, I'm beautiful, I'm strong, I'm majestic
My spirits eternal, I'm a healer, sure I'm a blessing
Got the fire, I'm powerful, I'm confident, amazing
I'm alive, see how I made it through the storm, that's impressive
I'm enough, I'm beautiful, I'm strong, I'm majestic
My spirit's eternal, I'm a healer, sure I'm a blessing
Got the fire, I'm powerful, I'm confident, amazing
I'm alive, see how I made it through the storm, that's impressive
I'm fly
Ndakangopenga ndakadaro
That's right you magnificent individuals
Your only mission is to, be the best version of yourself
Yeah
Stay fly
Stay fly famalam
Ya, ya, check it out now
Ya, ya, check it out now 
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, I'm too fly 
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, I'm too fly 
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, I'm too fly 
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, you can't keep me down
I'm too fly, I'm too fly
