Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You said, I come in peace
So I took you home
I gave you food and I gave you clothes
I taught you how to move your feet
When the rhythm's on
Still you wanna leave 'cause you feel alone
[Verse 2]
You don't know what they're like
If they know that you're alive
They're gonna try to take away
The secrets of your planet's life
I know you must be upset
You lost your family in a wreck
But you gotta listen
[Verse 3]
Don't try to find your spaceship
It might be out there waiting
Stay in my backpack forever
Stay in my backpack forever
[Verse 4]
(You know I gotta find my spaceship)
(My planet's outside there waiting)
(I can't stay in your backpack forever)
(Stay in your backpack)
[Verse 5]
Before you came around
I was in a rut
Didn't have a friend
Didn't know it was
You taught me how to dream
And how to love
You're my best friend, please listen to me
[Verse 6]
You don't know what they're like
If they know that you're alive
They're gonna try to take away
The secrets of your planet's life
I know you must be upset
You lost your family in a wreck
But you gotta listen
[Verse 7]
Don't try to find your spaceship
It might be out there waiting
Stay in my backpack forever
Stay in my backpack forever
[Verse 8]
(You know I gotta find my spaceship)
(My planet's outside there waiting)
(I can't stay in your backpack forever)
(Stay in your backpack)
[Verse 9]
Greetings, I fell from the sky
I'm from a different world
I use Lil Wayne as a disguise
And my flying saucer crashed
I'm the only one that survived
I've only taken over this planet
Since I've arrived
I'm in a backpack
I'm ducking Men in Black
Yeah, I'm a alien
My swag is outta this world
Different galaxy
They try to capture me
When I die
They gon' name this planet after me
Wayne's World
[Verse 10]
Don't try to find your spaceship
It might be out there waiting
Stay in my backpack forever
Stay in my backpack forever
[Verse 11]
(You know I gotta find my spaceship)
(My planet's outside there waiting)
(I can't stay in your backpack forever)
(Stay in your backpack)
[Verse 12]
(On our planet, we don't kill one another)
(We don't take love for granted)
(It's a gift from the mother)
(In your planet, you are filled with greed and false belief)
(We came here to bring you peace)
