[Verse 1]
I'm 'bout to blast off, I knew it when I wrote this
I could fly to space and leave Jupiter sliced open
Anything can happen if you just apply focus
I believe it so much I might use it as my slogan
It's been a minute since I quit using them high doses
'Cause when you this broken, it's stupid to try coping
My own paranoia induces the psychosis
'Cause the true enemies usually hide closest
I'm cruising at night hoping I get hit with an epiphany
And it all snaps like I'm walking over sticks and leaves
And suddenly everybody treats me differently
But I'm not ignorant enough to live so blissfully
I do not live to please, I serve a higher purpose
And that's supplying Earth with all these fire verses
With the highest urgence, this is my resurgence
Try to keep up, it'll fry your circuits
[Hook]
I'm not a wave (Wave, wave)
I'm not a wave (Wave, wave)
[Verse 2]
I didn't choose my coordinates, I was born in it
To list all the horrors, I would need more minutes
I was sure that it's gonna be a short visit
'Cause he always takes but I've never seen the lord giveth
We were poor tenants, they used to torment us
They ate four dinners while we just pour Guinness
It isn't your business, but, unfortunately
We were raised by Academy Award winners
They adore Jenner's and reality stars
We don't feel loved til that reality's ours
But to be honest, man, I'd rather we starve
Than to always be in need of a battery charge
So drained and confused, chained to your views
While you dangle your jewels in your lame interviews
It's strange but it's true, fame is a ruse
If they ask what makes you happy and you can't even choose
[Hook]
I'm not a wave (Wave, wave)
I'm not a wave (Wave, wave)
[Outro]
I'm not a moment, I'm not a wave
I'm not what you knew me as yesterday
I got galaxies in my eyes, watch them flash
I'm not just a wish that you make when I pass
I'm not a moment, I'm not a wave
I'm not what you knew me as yesterday
I got galaxies in my eyes, watch them flash
I'm not just a wish that you make when I pass
