lyrics

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
