Lyrics
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
From the floating death, to the fire of death
To a flower outside my grave and oh man
(Oh, oh)
Were you just being polite with your hands?
What were you sayin'
Take time to learn me like court appointed attorneys
Restore the order, we either join or adjourning
Less you join I'm up performing the journey
(Whoo)
In all earnest, I go so Bernie
(Whoo)
Takes another **** to turn me
Get it straight, I ain't late on states
(Huh)
I'm just sternly stating
How what I do, with grace takes another **** to turn mean
My return means like blockbuster with a tick
And I ain't kind but I don't hit
(Huh)
So you starting at the end, that's the part where you begin
(Yeah)
I skip the bullshit so we can start it where we win
(Yeah, whoo, huh)
Yeah, spoiler alert
I can hear you all saying "Boy you're a jerk"
But it's cool though, know we gotta rule yo
Get in, then we win and do it all again, huh
From the floating death, to the fire of death
To a flower outside of my grave and oh man
Were you just being polite with your hands?
And it really means I'm number one, and you're a fan
Well that's cool, 'cause I think you're number one too
Yeah that's cool, 'cause I think you're number one too
Yeah that's cool, 'cause I think you're number one, too
Me and Wasalu we made a deal, that I'm gon' keep 'em real
(Huh)
And they show me their secrets, I can even cop a feel
(Huh)
Victorious
(Yeah)
Can't match wit, with warriors
(Huh)
I match wig with wits, similarly can match sticks with forests'
(Whoo)
Only you can prevent what I do
(Heh)
Only due can prevent what's my view
I match matchsticks with wicks
(Yeah)
Wicker man, take a sip of liquor and
(And)
Spit the lip off warriors
And spit flames, **** get in the gang ahh
Yeah
From the floating death, to the fire of death
To a flower outside of my grave
(Say what)
And oh man
Or were you just being polite with your hands?
And it really means I'm number one
(Yeah)
And you're a fan
(Solid)
Well that's cool, 'cause I think you're number one too, yeah
Yeah that's cool, 'cause I think you're number one too, yeah
But as for me, 'cause I think you're number one too
It's road rage, without a roll cage
Takes courage to run on this road race
I know you like "No way", But I'm a full race
Also every soccer Terry Fox moulding, go ahead
Don't stop, go ahead
Sitting in your car, just listening to the bars
And there's traffic all around and you feel like falling down
And the music that I'm spewing out, enough to calm him down
'Fore you know you watch your car with your briefcase walkin' round
And them dollars from the budget that went to S1 Production
And Sebastian on the hook, like being dug by Michael Douglas
Yeah
So don't start that walk through Echo Park
My life's a 101 and you caught up in the jam
(Jam)
Just show some love back to your number one fan
(Yeah)
From the floating death, to the fire of death
(Fuck)
To a flower outside of my grave and oh man
(Huh)
Were you just being polite with your hands?
(Sing)
And it really means I'm number one
(One)
And you're a fan
(That's right)
Well that's cool, 'cause I think you're number one too, yeah
(I love you too)
Yeah that's cool, 'cause I think you're number one too, yeah
But as for me, 'cause I think you're number one too
Aight
Yeah
I think you're number one too, hey, hey, hey
(Hold on)
(Hold on)
(Hold on)
(Hold on)...
