BACK IN MY SHELL?

[Intro]
I just got out
And now I gotta go back in huh?
Maybe this is who I am
I got a shell for a reason
Tried to conform to a Yoshi
But I like being cozy
Out my shell like a Koopa
But then I got stomped on
I just submitted the song
I thought I was right on
Right on
Ride on
Thought I could be a Yoshi
But God told me hold on

[Chorus]
I came out like I came out of a cell
But then my plans had failed
Do I go back in my shell?
You comfort me with Your staff, Donatello
And You’re telling me no
I’m not going back in my shell
No matter what happens I am still well
And that’s true even when I get put on the shelf
Not going back in my shell
I made mistakes here’s my story to tell
I’m always keeping it real
Not going back in my shell

[Verse 1]
I’m not going back in I’ve been shy enough
I was walking on tables and then God called my bluff
I rode my gang to the park
Got green on green like a lawn
I was making a fool of myself, was tryna put on
I don’t regret my dedication
I regret my intentions
I took control like a lord
But I was really a tenant
Only once it went away
Realized I took it for granted
I can go hide and panic
Nah I’ll be bold and transparent
I’ll wear it
Don’t need a mask I’m not a shy guy or a ninja turtle
If I wear one it’s for drip, I’m not inside like fertile
I’m gonna spread the message tell em bout the Most Royal
I still rock with the OGs I always keep it loyal
Even if no one rocks with me and we don’t mix like soil
Even though their not by my side I am still gonna toil
Even though I’ve been left behind I got the Water, Squirtle
Not out like I how was before but I still pop like kernel

[Chorus]
I came out like I came out of a cell
But then my plans had failed
Do I go back in my shell?
You comfort me with Your staff, Donatello
And You’re telling me no
I’m not going back in my shell
No matter what happens I am still well
And that’s true even when I get put on the shelf
Not going back in my shell
I made mistakes here’s my story to tell
I’m always keeping it real
Not going back in my shell

[Verse 2]
Here’s where I made my mistake
I did some things too soon
I chose a worldly date
And I released the music
It would have been smart to wait
Cause they would leave in two
But I wasn’t aware
So could you call me a fool?
So now what I’m gonna do
Am I gon go back to hiding
I won’t be out like before
But new friends I’m finding
In new ways I’m talking
I’m not a bot who’s following
Can’t chase the woman no Solomon
Pray to God for monogamy
Out of my shell
Like I haven’t even fell
But the pain is still felt
And there’s things that have melt
I’m like Bowser I can spit fire
Devour all my enemies
But that’s not who I’m meant to be
I’m Jesus Christ’s Anthony

[Chorus]
I came out like I came out of a cell
But then my plans had failed
Do I go back in my shell?
You comfort me with Your staff, Donatello
And You’re telling me no
I’m not going back in my shell
No matter what happens I am still well
And that’s true even when I get put on the shelf
Not going back in my shell
I made mistakes here’s my story to tell
I’m always keeping it real
Not going back in my shell

[Post-Chorus]
I came out like I came out of a cell
But then my plans had failed
Do I go back in my shell?
You comfort me with Your staff, Donatello
And You’re telling me no
I’m not going back in my shell

[Outro]
Never separated, never separated, never separated...
Did you hear that new Never Separated?
