(LYRICS)

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

They dont know how I feel inside
Through my smile I cry
They dont know what they do to me
Keeping me from flyin

Thats why I say that
I know why the caged bird sings
Only joy comes from song
Shes 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
For the whole world to see

Shes like a caged bird
Fly, fly
Oh, just let fly
Just let her fly
Let her fly
Spread wings
Spread beauty

  • this song motavates me

  • i love this song its so beautiful this is excatly how i feel.

  • Maya Angelou is always the great poet I look up to. Alicia Keys is always the great songstress I look up to. It's people like them that save the world from "terrible and nonsense rhyme but somehow famous" syndrome.

  • A free bird leaps on the back of the wind and floats downstream till the current ends

    and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky.

    But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage

    can seldom see through his bars of rage

    his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing

    The caged bird sings with a fearful trill

    of things unknown but longed for still

    and his tune is heard on the distant hill

    for the caged bird sings of freedom

    Maya Angelou

  • I met Maya Angelou when she ccame to South Phoenix. South Mountain Rebels rule forever. Thank you for taking time out of your very busy and important life to come and educate me in high school. You are truly a master, and I knew it when I saw you in 1975.

  • first time hearing song and love it

  • this a beautfiul song
