Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got back on these verses now these weak rappers all nervous
You should be glad that you heard this, speed tap on your qwerty
Tell them relax with them verses we no longer need they service
Im filling voids with illler noise but we aint acting shy
There's still a voice inside my head that I cant pacify
If I listened ill transition to a man I don't need to be
I could fire off this tranquility keep this piece at piece
But I refuse to be comfortable if do thats it for me
And I aint no hypocrite beat up these tracks with critical damage
I get high off this shit spend all day and night with this shit
I embrace this obsession rejecting it isn't getting
Me closer to not regretting this life i live
See I know I'm just like mommy she never satisfied
And I wonder what its like when doves cry and i see
Two birds in the distance as I clutch this stone
Standing in this glass house so leave him alone
Two birds in the distance as I clutch this stone
Standing in this glass house so leave him alone
(Laaa Laaa)
I can't hear myself think
Shit The edge is closer than y'all think (Sheesh)
(Laaa Laaa)
I can't hear myself think
Shit The edge is closer than y'all think
I Respond and react and take action here as the problem come
I move like a boss and mourn the losses when the war is done
Accept the inception the exception is who I is
My voice is weapon can break you by breaking silence
I won’t wait on a waiting list
Dust off my shoulders I’m made for this
Catalog look like a greatest hits
Crazy they silent but thinking it, I know
Got to get it how i get it now aint no silver spooning
Toe to toe with these average joes so I’m high nooning
Like they hands up so I make them wave (Flow ocean quite frankly)
Got me dazed lost in a days but in time they will thank me
From the window to the wall, I’m in a glass house now
I can do what I want, walk around with it all hanging out
Nothing but the socks and it's all for kicks I can milk the game like a cereal
Killer the feeling is mutual Washington watching me NSA tapping my stereo
Don't matter, I'm so flattered, I mix up, then dish platters
Wondering if I should throw a rock and watch it all shatter
And I See
Two birds in the distance as I clutch this stone
Standing in this glass house so leave him alone
Two birds in the distance as I clutch this stone
Standing in this glass house so leave him alone
(Laaa Laaa)
I can't hear myself think
Shit The edge is closer than y'all think (Sheesh)
(Laaa Laaa)
I can't hear myself think
Shit The edge is closer than y'all think
I don’t need to catch up
They need to catch on
I work too damn hard for your approval
Im Joseph Gordon in the loophole
In a glass house and took the roof off
There was no need with this potential of me
I brainstorm the shit leaks
I done beat the brake off of these beats
But I never break off of these beats (Hmmmmm)
Yo Ray check the engine rev
High speeds with the drive connection heavy
Got no trouble shooting cuz it’s internet (Swish)
Kd bout to shoot the lights out
Wifi when this Lan mine
Change your spectrum like bright house
I don’t care if you quote it
Just know its the realest that wrote it
Of course she rode it
Slick as the talk on this poet
I don’t have to po it to stroke it
She know im the man with the motion
I know that she open for me
Watch how I balance the ballad
Dope as the stroke of the attic
Automatic in the attic
Ain’t no coping I done had enough
I’m so content with insanity
Skip all the vanity
All of they panties is bunched
I’m manic the magic is madness
My cranium can’t get enough
Crazy I work hard to put it all up
They wanna find sans in my castle
But it took fine sands to put the walls up
So when the heat is on I dont rattle
So these two birds out the window as I clutch this stone
Got a vibe like Brutus
I get a clue that they wanna see me end like Rome
If that sounds like you then a fool what you are
I’m the glue holding up zone
And I won’t let you, you, you or you come and break my home
(Aaaagggghhhhh!)
The song "Birds" by D.A.S. is a deeply introspective track that explores the artist's journey towards finding his purpose, his inner turmoil, and his drive to succeed. The opening lines "Once I circled on my purpose, zeroed in on what my worth is. Got back on these verses now these weak rappers all nervous" speak to how D.A.S. has found his focus and has regained his confidence in his abilities. He then goes on to talk about how he is filling voids with "illler noise" and that he refuses to be comfortable because that would mean he has reached his limit.
Throughout the song, D.A.S. struggles with his obsession for music and its effect on his life. He mentions that he could "fire off this tranquility keep this piece at piece," but he chooses not to because he is addicted to his craft. He also references his mother's personality traits and how he is just like her, never satisfied and always pushing for more. The chorus of the song is a repetition of the lines "Two birds in the distance as I clutch this stone, standing in this glass house so leave him alone," which serves as a metaphor for his inner turmoil and the fragility of his mental state.
The lyrics of the song are rich in metaphors and symbolism, and D.A.S. delivers them with a flow that is both laid-back and intense. The beat of the song is mellow and soulful, contrasting with the lyrics' intensity, which creates a powerful emotional impact.

I see two birds far away as I grip this stone
Standing in this glass house so leave him alone
I'm in a fragile state, so please don't harm me
I can't hear myself think
It's too loud; I can't concentrate
Shit The edge is closer than y'all think (Sheesh)
I'm nearly at my breaking point
I Respond and react and take action here as the problem come
I rapidly respond and address any issues as they arise
I move like a boss and mourn the losses when the war is done

I won't wait patiently for opportunities
Dust off my shoulders I’m made for this
I shake off obstacles because I'm built for this
Catalog look like a greatest hits
My collection of songs is composed of only the best
Crazy they silent but thinking it, I know
It's crazy how people won't speak their mind but still have opinions, I'm aware
Got to get it how i get it now aint no silver spooning
I have to work hard to earn everything because I wasn't born into wealth
Toe to toe with these average joes so I’m high nooning
I'm facing off against regular people and feeling triumphant
Like they hands up so I make them wave (Flow ocean quite frankly)
I have the people nodding along and waving their hands to my music
Got me dazed lost in days but in time they will thank me
My fame and success will eventually be recognized and appreciated
From the window to the wall, I’m in a glass house now
I have plenty of attention and scrutiny on me because of my status
I can do what I want, walk around with it all hanging out
I have complete freedom to do as I please, without being insecure
Nothing but the socks and it's all for kicks I can milk the game like a cereal
I'm doing things for fun and profit, taking advantage of the music industry
Killer the feeling is mutual Washington watching me NSA tapping my stereo
It's a mutually beneficial agreement, with the government observing me
Don't matter, I'm so flattered, I mix up, then dish platters
It doesn't matter because I'm proud of my work and share it with others
Wondering if I should throw a rock and watch it all shatter
Considering if I should cause chaos and see the fallout
I don’t need to catch up
I don't need to improve or change to meet anyone else's standards
They need to catch on
Everyone else needs to realize my greatness
Im Joseph Gordon in the loophole
I'm as clever and resourceful as Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character in 'Inception'
In a glass house and took the roof off
I'm exposing myself and my vulnerabilities to the world
There was no need with this potential of me
I don't need any more protection or assistance because of my skills
I brainstorm the shit leaks
I come up with great ideas that flow out of me
I done beat the brake off of these beats
I've dominated and mastered the rhythmic elements in music
But I never break off of these beats (Hmmmmm)
But I never fall apart because of my talent
Yo Ray check the engine rev
Hey Ray, let's check the power and strength of the engine
High speeds with the drive connection heavy
We'll be driving fast with the powerful engine and strong transmission
Got no trouble shooting cuz it’s internet (Swish)
There won't be any technical difficulties because we have internet access
Kd bout to shoot the lights out
Kevin Durant is about to score points effortlessly
Wifi when this Lan mine
I have a strong and secure internet connection
Change your spectrum like bright house
I have the ability to alter my perspective like the TV provider Bright House
I don’t care if you quote it
I don't mind if you repeat my words
Just know its the realest that wrote it
Just acknowledge that what I wrote is true and authentic
Of course she rode it
Of course, my female companion enjoyed my music
Slick as the talk on this poet
I'm as smooth as a skilled poet's words
I don’t have to po it to stroke it
I don't have to brag to appreciate my success
She know im the man with the motion
She knows that I have the skills and control in music
I know that she open for me
I know that my music can win her over
Watch how I balance the ballad
Observe how I maintain the harmony in my music
Dope as the stroke of the attic
My music is as great as the finest work of art from the attic
Automatic in the attic
My music comes naturally, without much thought, like the attic masterpiece
Ain’t no coping I done had enough
I won't settle for mediocrity any longer
I’m so content with insanity
I'm happy to keep pushing myself to the brink of madness for my art
Skip all the vanity
I ignore superficialities and only focus on my music
All of they panties is bunched
Everyone is feeling agitated and stressed
I’m manic the magic is madness
I'm in a frenzy, and the resulting music is exhilarating craziness
My cranium can’t get enough
My brain is always hungry for more musical creation
Crazy I work hard to put it all up
It's insane how hard I work to create and share my music
They wanna find sans in my castle
They want to find anything negative within my music
But it took fine sands to put the walls up
But it took great effort and attention to detail to build my success
So when the heat is on I dont rattle
So when under pressure, I remain composed and unfazed
So these two birds out the window as I clutch this stone
So I watch two outside birds as I grip a rock
Got a vibe like Brutus
I'm feeling like Brutus, a famous literary backstabber
I get a clue that they wanna see me end like Rome
I sense that others want to see my downfall, like that of Rome
If that sounds like you then a fool what you are
If that applies to you, then you are a foolish person
I’m the glue holding up zone
I'm the key figure keeping everything together and successful
And I won’t let you, you, you or you come and break my home
I won't let anyone ruin my accomplishments and progress
(Aaaagggghhhhh!)
A sudden, frustrated exclamation
