[Intro]
Every day you gotta run for your life
Unless you like lookin' up at the ground
I'll be lucky in the summer time, not in the winter time
Winters are the worst if
You wanna wake up and live, listen and don't make a sound
[Hook]
Big fish don't get big by being stupid
(Hooks in the water)
Big fish don't get big by being dumb
(Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb)
(Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb)
(Hooks in the water)
[Verse 1]
All my life I been ignorant
But never innocent
Tough, lesser in it when
Out it go, how'd you know
This little powder doe
[?] Get so powerful
Yes
Never eat the flesh like Morrissey
Morally opposed to those who want war with me
Drop a couple stories on the chumps like Dorothy
And Dora The Explorer my thoughts
There's much more to me still
Don't question my will
I'll never be killed til' I've eaten my fill
No meat on my grill
But I'm meetin' my fate
I'm eating my weight
Watch me season my plate
I'm seizing these reigns
I'm reason my way, weigh easily
Ride around these fake I lay wheezily
Types, real zebras don't sneeze their stripes off
So pull up your hi-tops
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
Those barbs, those scars
On my cheek
I pick my moments to speak
I lay low so these beasts won't
Pick their teeth with my bones
The whole world's on the grind
The whole world stalls for time
You run and tend not to follow, tend not to fall in line
Now I wanna go travellin' with you
We could move like a javelin tip runnin' thru air
And instead of unravelling quick
Letting them rattle our [?], we'll be there
Now I'm livin' scared
[Hook]
[Spoken outro]
I love all animals
I love coral
I love squor-ral
I love a hot gorl (that's you!)
Cause I love the whole world
