welcome aboard the sinking ship
hold on tight as we swish into drips
oh my, my tummy is starting to itch
why did i sign up to be on this sinking ship
man what drip, i am a part of that world
all hands off deck
only me when i checked
the light inside was just enough to let me float
do i regret getting on that boat
who would i be if i never sunk
surely not an athlete who dunks
in my opinion, experience gives that spunk
i mean go ahead and ask unc
i digress
954 feet deep in the ocean
piranhas around me causing commotion
oh man get me out, its atrocious
met a whale name Lucas, he gave me a hand took me up
to 907 feet, closer to my birth town
well looky here im surrounded by clowns
one said nemo went uptown
to grab a beer, more like a few rounds
he can guide you, let me send him the sound
before i knew it, i was 305 feet away from my home town
at this point theres no more free rides
we learned to swim with the guys
met a dolphin named ty,
with him we learned to fly
out the ocean, take a risk to be seen
no shine added but you see the gleam
not scared to go after something and crush my own dream
im over it, im cocky, no one got it like me, yup dont choke
i got the world ahead of me, my foot on they throat
multitalented this aint no joke
i didnt create myself come on folks
blessed by the holy father
trying to be his holy daughter
i used to drive past MacArthur back when i wanted to be a scholar
these days im feeling more author
confidence is the answer
take me to the north pole i miss prancer
showed me how to be a great dancer
i digress
im floating but i made my move
I can swim to the bottom come back up make it look smooth
see all that was school
grateful to be misunderstood
sometimes in life we need to get shook
take a chance like why not learn laws to free an alleged crook
willingness is all it took
shoot for the moon
sing more than just a tune
on tuesday we make the car vroom
into the light of the night towards what’s true
no more floating in the city let’s call it a truce
no more floating in the city time cut them loose
no more floating in the city time to really get nifty
no more floating in the city the leaders getting greedy
no more floating in the city it’s official time to get busy.
