BV1-
I guess it’s best to rise before we fall
and catch it
Way b4 ya run upon the gambit
Managing our canvas, stand a phantom with our handle on the planet.
And I guess we've changed,
from those is pursuit,
to the suited for the fortune
and our fame's in the bottle with the rest of the Lightning,
Squeez that cole in my hand till its shinin.
Tight-Grip,
pretty absurd, City go blurr
as the light speed rally round the curve
And we speak it like we James Earl Jones
If ya ain't got a voice keep ya face to the throne.
Keepin it close untill you prove what you believe,
Deep in the desert
my placebo canteen's "right here",
You start to taste it,
The air of the oasis,
E-lec-trif-ies
when ya close, feel the bass kick.
Throw ya palm trees-rally-ally-up
Yeah, ya gonna need those diamonds in ya glass hut.
HV2-
Wake up, super smooth to boost
the baddest let’s spar
talk hard wit a walk, he rock star
car thumpin, bizarre, cigar, bar crushing
young Bobbie with an attitude, spit sumpthin
reach like he reeks the reaper to run his sheep on ya
global bomb ya, follow then get immobile on ya
mogul monster, carving like a blind giant
young Carters, don’t follow just get your own style
bonzai, bombs in the sky
i’m that super fly trooper guy
looking for my do or die
bet it, liable to get ‘em to talk slick
set it, diamonds in the back cut quick
Not the type
To set my ways
That's why I always change
by daily you can find in my
Arrangement not the same
As if it were to catch the world
In all it's fleeting and I fade it
Then I celebrate myself
Untill it melts into the greatest
Of exchange of an idea
And as a vehicle and a message
And an atom interacting
With a different kind of vessel
DNA to make this last time special
As I never try to question
Just accept it as u point into the void.

Intro-
And I’m crafty
I I I, I don’t owe
You better stop and look
HV1-
Follow steps alone at last, I learn to make a friend at night
Another glass ‘till we cross paths, and on the surface we look right
And in this moments when I realize you were just as young as me
And why we made it’s still a mystery we’re just too cool to see
Lifestyles of the quick and aimless, no direction and it’s bliss I’m living
Had a blast I forgot your name miss, doesn’t matter it’s your face I’m missing
So brave when I was courting, I found your wreckage just like mine
Combine these tragic two, and now our ship will sail just fine
CH-
I I I
don’t owe you
you better stop and look
I I I
and now our ship will sail just fine
don’t owe you
you better stop and look
BV1-
Attached to the struggle, work a double
true story allegory, move rubble
but we boulders hold to the mold like soldiers toy
foldiers boy, up all night ‘till the telly make noise
walk up in the place now
all eyes on me, bury that stare
I am twice the man I use to be
HV2-
A fraction a note and it’s here
an action I’m close to the fear
I’m craftin’ a hope that’s she’s near
and It’s after the thought, but it’s clear
So lets talk the goals to get lost
we mold to make moss the stones that we toss
to shake sound we came from this town
afraid to move round but it’s change you fear
CH-
I I I
don’t owe you
you better stop and look
I I I
and now our ship will sail just fine
don’t owe you
you better stop and look
BBridge-
Ooooooh ohhh ohh
HBridge-
And I’m a joke, maybe but I’m laughing along
clearing out my throat, crazy trying to map out this song
now ya only live once no enemies
building frames from this game so join me
CH-
I I I
don’t owe you
you better stop and look
I I I
and now our ship will sail just fine

H Intro-
Re crafting to make your soul clap
Painted faces and the path I took will take me places
HV1-
I'm taking stage
engage these conclaves
In caves we carve days
and crave these shock waves (boom)
after shocks and they shaking the planet rock
and awaken the way we walk
and in moments we change the clocks
two new shoes homey what you think
now I'm on the move and I can't stop, wink
trying to get full and I mean like brink
so I tread quick so my ships don't sink, sailor
hell of a wailer, raging harder than ever
I iron my nice shirt was a medium, now major
yacht shaker, Yahtzee mutha***ka
I'm a walking walkie talkie
that'll kshk, come in danger
not no stranger to bush, the forest ranger
to search, seek and destroy
this weekend employees flavor
CH-
Lights lights free lights we light switch
painted faces and the path I took will take me places
Lights lights free lights we lights switch
BV1-
Drown down ya crown and pound out the sound
make ya earlobe chatter till it's crackin the ground
found, old map in the attic
smash the glass
light crash have at it
gone south on tha 5 drive
follow that gold pot drop
‘till it hide hind the water
farther than you needed
baja deeded
right where the sand beat the concrete
like he stole something
strong arm and steady
brave headed bread by the best born forgetting
force for letting, lesser be the fight there
sworn as we swing for the fence like a vice grip
CH-
Lights, lights, free lights, we light switch
hit the light switch
freaks come out at night
hit the lights switch
light switch
we light like glow sticks
on the floors with they pipes lit
HV2-
Live for that light then we fight 'till it's lights out
selector, selector, I bring the brain wrecker
that trap in your face no trace block banger
and then we,
have at but the speakers make you lifted
let it grow make it glow stay liquid
skin shakes all your clothes off, don't stop
rob 'till it's right cause we fight for the robots
BV2-
I really hate to linger, blink and I be gone
stand the hairs up on your arm
rook pawn feel the temperature arising
yeah but I like it better here
the speed I go, she might know, now she follows me anywhere
CH-
Lights, lights free lights we light switch
Painted faces and the path I took will take me places
Lights, lights free lights we lights switch

Float Away
04:29
|

CH-
From these steps it only makes sense to float away
from such heights makes sense to fall
BV1-
He be that fast flash
cap back
pack tracking bad astronomical
a floating particle
on a crash course, towards what he asked for
with that impact begins that everlasting bass
and it still vibrates, it's taste in our tummy
feel my wrist, count the BPM's, yummy
well that depends on your science teacher
and your GPA, I'd rather be at recess than the PTA
matter of fact you might as well count this as my final grade
times it by Infiniti
HV1
Yeah, but I ain't ***kin' with her no more
nope, bounce waves like a sonar
radar, slicing the light
light up your lazers
attack it beat us and beat us until it's cracked
it's magic, and mostly the kind that you find in hats
get at it, and Ima bee (ima bee) watch my sting
I gotta lotta zing proper like a punk rocker
I came to hunt the queen spot her on my glober trotter
and this is alma mater
you will never work harder
you better watch the throne
cause we coming for slaughter
and in the nights when we strike oh heavenly father
but this is back to basics
we came to pack the basements
and it was all a dream
but I can almost taste it
CH-
From these steps it only makes sense to float away
from such heights makes sense to fall
HV2
Stop stop never giving it up
tick tock goes the clock and it's Sunday
wrist watch as I'm living it up
I'm all set just waiting on the run way
jet pack, better bring your head wrap
check that yeah cause we making heads crack
life style when we move like wind I
can't stop 'till we get high, red eye
but I make due you can see the plate move
something 'bout the chase watch your face when the bass moves
now watch hers you can see it shake too
no mistakes sweep the leg when I take you
cobra kai all black on a bank route
all money, keep your hands up thank you
quick hurry let me enter the safe
grab the case fill 'em up then we off on a chase
smash and grab when we entered the place
what a waste but the taste was as good as the race
matter of fact, matter reacts
putting heavy on my pedal let the metal impact
copy that, caught in the cracks
let the impact crash in my craft
cause we got there, gotta make it last
all motors, one speed go fast
BV2-
This rare begins the mood
we step in-side
we try once again
and fall b-4 we rise
then instead it bends like
apart of the plan, the start of the man
although its just a grain in the sand
it lands upon the road
controls, it grows, collides
it lends itself into the mold
untill in time
we recognize its shape
as just a part of the landscape
yet whisper in the dark
when we can’t see it’s face
the light escapes
cuz no he couldn’t hold onto it forever
he tried to put it back
but it seems that grain became a pebble
came a rock into a mountain
‘till explosions in the sky
re connect us to the sea
in a blink the smoke rise
like it’s been here
it's been here
it's been here
It's been here
re connect it like
like its been here
it's been here
Outro-
Only make steps
from these steps it only makes sense to float away
from such heights makes sense to fall

HV1-
Now I'm intrigued
smiling at the way you place your silhouette
a window yet a vault
you're a safe, I'm a crook
a little lift a joke and then I wait for your reaction
our interaction pleasantly personified our traction
a chemical contraption smiling swooning at your action
a sedative of sorts calling, calming my attraction
no longer single, no longer on my mingle
honest since I met you and my social scene is
see two peas on a pod
on the rise feeling free
tap dancing on your heart
buzzing working like a bee

so these crutches on my life at it's current state adds weight
translator who are you to drop anchor
I was there when you needed me I served as your waiter
order taker your significant crusader
as I gained my independence you resented me the greater
an hour later, sounds in a major
and these minor fights were outta line
outta sight, outta mind
but just as beautiful these days were long
way back when a day was just a song
