The Best Ships

INTRO:
I stay with my
I stay with my
I stay with my
Crew, crew, crew

CHORUS:
The best ships are friendships
I wanna sail with you
Broken links
Will float or sink
But I’ll stay with my crew
Ohh, ohh
I wanna sail with you
Though our hope
May float or sink
I’ll stay with my crew

VERSE 1:
My crew

Without my crew
I would have walked the plank!
Without my friends
Would have gone off course and sank
Now I’m captain of my soul, and I’d die to live
Me and my friends roll deep in our pirate ship

It’s dead man walking every morning
With the sun up in the corner
Till they send me to the coroner
I’m calling all my voyagers
Stand deployed, trample Troy
I won’t abandon my boys till it’s “Land Ahoy!”

I spit sand slicker than a flintlock quick hand
Let the industry forgive me, when I sin bad
There’s only one U shaped survivor’s raft
But I have only one I like a pirate patch
If we get landlocked, we’ll find a way back here
We were sipping rum when we couldn’t even grow black beards

I’ll never get lost in the stormy depths
Cuz I couldn’t afford a feature
But I brought my friends

CHORUS:
The best ships are friendships
I wanna sail with you
Broken links
Will float or sink
But I’ll stay with my crew
Ohh, ohh
I wanna sail with you
Though our hope
May float or sink
I’ll stay with my crew

VERSE 2:
So when the water’s growing colder
The coast is barely in view
And when the ice we know is broken
And ghosts have landed the moon
That’s when the only known survivors are those who stand with the few
No matter how it goes down, I won’t abandon my

Cuz I rap hot
Every single time that a track drops
Mick Jagger’s got nothing on what Calico Jack’s got
10,000 hours? I got 20,000 leagues
And I couldn’t afford a choir
So I just brought my team

CHORUS:
The best ships are friendships
I wanna sail with you
Broken links
Will float or sink
But I’ll stay with my crew
Ohh, ohh
I wanna sail with you
Though our hope
May float or sink
I’ll stay with my crew

The best ships are friendships
I wanna sail with you
Broken links
Will float or sink
But I’ll stay with my crew
Ohh, ohh
I wanna sail with you
Though our hope
May float or sink
I’ll stay with my crew

VERSE 3:
Cuz there’s a
Bird in Los Angeles reminding me to fly
And a
Girl from the desert
Telling me to dry my eyes
And a
Whole lot of friends
That won’t let me die inside
Write this on my casket
Hi, I’m alive
I survived
I’m alive
I survived
Cuz I am not a sailor
But lord knows I’ve been deep before
We don’t meet our heroes
Look we are the people we adore
If we have our friends we won the Grammys
We don’t need awards
So thanks for all the great adventures
Mine can finally be restored
Thanks to you
My adventure finally can be restored
I see it now when we record
Hear it in your genius chords
Up on my DIY shit
I never thought I would need you more
The deepest musical connections cannot legally divorce
I’d take a bullet for you kid
I’d catch it in between my lips
And spit it back out over a beat of yours

OUTRO:
Though our hope
May float or sink
I’ll stay with my crew
