lyrics
- you got some bite with that bark but you've got no teeth
- swim for you life from the sharks but you spot no reef
- get gripped up by the undertow, get crushed under toes
- compressed to a pulp throughout your thrusts and your throes
- blow down your bungalow, let the breeze flow like a gazebo
- squeeze with all your might, keeping it tight as a pee hole
- hiding on easter island, disappear just like the mayans
- with eyes full of knots while i'm trying to tie up my ends
- supply and demand hand to hand or out a van
- trying to expand, make a stand, blow out a brand
- branding a standard expansion, advancing on pawns
- check mate is drawn, dancing with demon spawns
- and all hope is gone, think long be calm
- and smack your mom with an open palm
- back to three months before you was born
- distorting the norm with unfortunate form
- to those that ever shouted me, and those that never doubted me
- showed that they'd allow me speech, and chose to get it out of me
- and i'm feeling fine
- to those that never shouted me and those that ever doubted me
- i woke the monster sound asleep, and chose to let it out of me
- and i'm feeling fine
- welcome to the gathering, where the crabs that stink
- trying to pull you in the darkness of the barrel when you're at the brink
- on a chain with a kink, latched with a lock
- kept at bay stashed away encaged like human livestock
- wanna ride when i rock, so i put my cock back inside my pants
- too cold to get stole, too advanced to get jammed
- don't play like a troll, you know the fuck who i am
- the underdog on the undercard considered underground
- underestimate who you are, don't understand what you're about
- every obstacle's a bout, trained with precise technique
- both shadow boxing and sparring simultaneously
- an amazing feat, not for the faint of heart
- so stay in your seat, you're not ready for this part
- unprepared from the start, not a bearer of the mark
- at the bottom of the chart, being tracked in the dark, getting swallowed by sharks
- to those that ever shouted me, and those that never doubted me
- showed that they'd allow me speech, and chose to get it out of me
- and i'm feeling fine
- to those that never shouted me and those that ever doubted me
- i woke the monster sound asleep, and chose to let it out of me
- and i'm feeling fine
