You can fly, you can fly, you can fly…….well if you want to. Seems our boy Peter Pan (er, Swoope) didn’t want to fly (rap) when he was younger. Peter just needed a little help from Tinker Bell (the Holy Spirit) to get him back to his flying ways.
OK, so this song is about how Swoope didn’t have any...
[Verse: Swoope]
2001
Let's flash this stuff back
High school when I was fronting in the back of the class
A free-time hobby
Rap was just that
Coach hated the fact
I put rap to the back
Time after time he told me
Keep you eyes on the prize
But all I ever heard was yackedy-yak
Please bro
Whatever never-man
Well Peter
Move back to Never-Neverland
Put the pen down
And then the rooster crowed three times
Because of Peter's laziness
Christ he denied
He's I
Peter is me
Screw Never-Neverland
I'm back to city
Then here comes Tinky
More like Holy Spirit was what I was thinking
Saying I know you want the other land
Father dog
We need you back in Neverland
Green tights and all
Get your focus back
Please see the Lord
The lost boys see no need to read their swords
Cuz amongst the animals it's hard to be a man
But the world needs you Peter
You gotta think you can
So ran from rap too long with nothing left over
So back to Never-Neverland
I'm on the next smoker
Fight my arch-nemesis
No more will I be shook
Christ came to loose the lost boys
No more will they be hooked
So here I am
Back in the rap
Your boys footstep was ordered clackedy-clack
I'm focused on the Christ
And His wonderful face
Self becomes dim in His glory and grace
Father
I know it's You I denied
But I also know without You I can't walk on this water
Hop hip on this aqua
My will is my offer
I got my eyes on You
I never take em' up off Ya
