lyrics

Watching the sun set over the West Side Highway
Sideways
Looking for Hump Day on Friday
When I play the game,
I don't like to use cheats.
Bad mood from fast food
This pool's deep
Swimming upstream.
I don't understand
Sun tanned mermaids love to slow dance
The damage done come, and then it healed
I swear I'm not drunk, it's just how I feel
Damn, this landscape is rougher than sand papes!
I'm making mixtapes just so I can get a date...
shit.
Next summer Imma take over the world,
and try to write a song that isn't about a girl.

You can't keep us out of the sky.
We got too many tricks to keep us in flight.

We don't wanna go where we don't wanna be.
We don't wanna float
We don't wanna sink
We don't wanna go where our feet touch streets
We just wanna fly
We just want some wings

Oh brother,
I'm breaking into the cave of wonders
Grab a magic lamp
And give it to my mother
Then celebrate over marijuana and wine
What a marvelous way for us to pass the time!
Try to find that sun
But the warmth is done
Chugging that Chai when the winter come
I got a tongue like a gun in the hands of a nun
No fun till I'm done making plans with the _____
Indie kid and I'm shameless
Waiting on the next release from Rhymesayers Ent.
Rest in peace Eyedea
One of the greatest
Come on,
We almost made it

You can't keep us out of the sky.
We got too many tricks to keep us in flight.

We don't wanna go where we don't wanna be.
We don't wanna float
We don't wanna sink
We don't wanna go where our feet touch streets
We just wanna fly
We just want some wings

Destiny calls
I'm pacing in my room wall to wall
Killing time, not doing anything at all
I love the Fall
That transition point where things feel new
And you don't feel so fucking small
Who has the gall,
to step toe to toe with the gods
on the edge of divinity's promenade?
I do.
I'll take the lightning rod from Zeus
And put it straight into Babylon's root
Less is truth
The who's who of every lose-lose scenario
Loving the cheap cameos
So let me come do a set at your college
I'll get drunk on stage in a rage and spit word vomit

We don't wanna go where we don't wanna be.
We don't wanna float
We don't wanna sink
We don't wanna go where our feet touch streets
We just wanna fly
We just want some wings
