[Verse 1: IAME]
This is all I know, this is all I am
This is all me
It's all faulty, fallen (no wings)
No Paul McCartney (no wings)
Just call me Captain Sully, I'm mastered fully
In the art of nosediving
Bad for the hearts of those close by me
I'm sorry
But I never thought it would have been like
What it's been like, I mean
It's never been right
I've been tight with the budget
But just because I don't make shit
I barely scrape by but it's legit
As far as shit, it happens
It's happening now
Try and imagine the reaction of cats in the crowd
That are passionately down with the same cause I embody
I'm not the life of the party
More like a light on the poverty
Or a fight with authorities
Regardless if it's right or wrong
There's no reforming me
Fuck performing, I was born to lead
And every bone in me will break before you take control of me
And every boundary will sh-shake when
Faced head on with me this place is home to me
Its fate belongs to me
When I make it, I'm unlocking the gates and I'm throwing the key
And you will see a million faces of the thorn through me
And this will all be free (so will we), stay tuned
[Chorus: Sapient & IAME]
You think you living in hell, it might be (like me)
What do you do when the yellow light blinks? (blink, blink)
Proceed with caution, Proceed with caution
Y-y-y-you ain't felt it like me (like me)
What do you do when the yellow light blinks? (blink, blink)
Proceed with caution
We lost on this I-5, eyes wide, Ride til we cross over
[Verse 2: Sapient]
When the doomsday clocks, stopping like stop watches
I'mma stop watching the clock, watching me clock progress
'Til then, I'm under no one, employers or mob bosses
I refuse any offers from from devils or Godfathers
But as a present result, I'm not wanted
I'm not product of hip hop, pop, or popped collars
I'm a - smashed basket, with all earth's eggs in it
Sapient (that has a nice ring), I'm not Gollum
But when I put this on I can't be seen, Rock solid
So don't dance with me, I'm not waltzing
We're all perishable, like Odwalla
But you - you're on a perilous slope, it's not slalom
Your thought process is optimistic, that's not realistic
You're no hero, there's not comics
This ain't Gotham City, sivvy, you're not Robin
I'm trying to fuck the world, quit cock-blocking
[Chorus: Sapient & IAME]
You think you living in hell, it might be (like me)
What do you do when the yellow light blinks? (blink, blink)
Proceed with caution, Proceed with caution
Y-y-y-you ain't felt it like me (like me)
What do you do when the yellow light blinks? (blink, blink)
Proceed with caution
We lost on this I-5, eyes wide, Ride til we cross over
[Verse 3: Sapient & IAME]
So distant in the clutter, these birds of a feather
Squawking amongst themselves, instead of working together
Breaking individual backs, trying to carry the weight
Instead of dispersing it in various ways, but
It gets no easier, so proceed with caution
There's no depths that I won't reach to prosper
I gotta protect and feed my offspring
Cuz it's a fucked up world, riddled with evil monsters
And I've seen the life of someone who's ran from 'em, I've walked that path
(Trust me), these idle hands can cause a lot of fucking problems fast
But now I got my hands where they belong, my left on my girls thigh
My right out the window, I'm letting her drive
Let the world try to bring me to maddness
Have me relive my past, or trade in my freedom for handcuffs
If a judge want to break a man down and throw him in a cell
When they let another broken man out, he can blame himself (see what happens)
[Chorus: Sapient & IAME]
You think you living in hell, it might be (like me)
What do you do when the yellow light blinks? (blink, blink)
Proceed with caution, Proceed with caution
Y-y-y-you ain't felt it like me (like me)
What do you do when the yellow light blinks? (blink, blink)
Proceed with caution
We lost on this I-5, eyes wide, Ride til we cross over
