Be the One You Love

[Chorus]
Be
Be the one that you love

[Verse 1]
Watching bulldozers through the garden
Butterflies circles 'round my arms and
At the moment traffic cones guide me where to go
Finding nirvana over by the luxury apartments

Got to Give it up part 1 to Marvin
Got those loose joints like I’m Arthur Russell
Andy Kaufman got that pile driver
But I don’t wanna die like all my idols

Just like Sting in ’97 with the baseball bat
Fighting for my world with new world on my back
Sipping ginger ale 'cause my feelings feel wack
Like a packet of saltines lacking plastic wrap

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don’t wanna die like all my idols
But I don’t wanna fade like my other idols do
Don’t wanna make it to 97
Just to regret some shit I did at 22

[Chorus]
Be
Be the one that you love
Be
Be the one that you love
Be
Be the one

[Verse 2]
Good guy, Best Buy, I can talk a big game
But all my talk means nothing, proof is in the pudding
Devils in the detail, swing is in my step
Got two breath mints left, but don’t got bad breath

The apple don’t fall far from the tree
The tree don’t fall far from where the apple fell
I learned gratitude from tv
But that’s also where I learned to doubt myself

See, I got a fear rejection
I need my buddies protection
I need to trust myself more than I can do
Douse me in an ounce of gratitude, gimme food
Flip my mood to positive attitude

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don’t wanna die like all my idols
But I don’t wanna fade like my other idols do
Don’t wanna make it to 97
Just to regret some shit I did at 22

[Outro]
But I don’t wanna die like all my idols
