Uhh huh
Uhh huh (Huh! Huh, huh, huh!)
Fly... (Woo! Woooo!)
This is for the kids!
This is only for the kids!
Come on!
Mommy! Daddy! I know – you love me
Bad grades, PlayStations
Restrictions, you take it from me
But God forbid, something goes wrong
You call – the police
Well, guess what – I found
In the drawer, of Daddy's
Oh, God (Oh God!)
Ohh, God (Oh God!)
Oh, God (Oh God!)
Hey! (Well, c'mon!)
It won't be long, 'til you see me on the news!
Another soul lost at sea – while taking a cruise!
Gasping for air makes the righteous path – harder to choose
Well, it's either fly or die, sink or swim!
Which one shall I choose? (Yeah!)
Stupid shrink – get paid, by the hour–350
He can't – figure out, what's wrong–with me
Dumb-ass – girlfriend, fuck my friend–she's a ho
I tried telling–Mom and Dad
But they're more concerned–with their portfolio
Oh, God (Oh God!)
Ohh, God (Oh God!)
Oh, God (Oh God!)
Hey! (Well, c'mon!)
It won't be long, 'til you see me on the news!
Another soul lost at sea – while taking a cruise!
Gasping for air makes the righteous path – harder to choose
Well, it's either fly or die, sink or swim!
Which one shall I choose? (Yeah!)
Now I'm in with the – negotiator
And he says to me, "You don't want to die, boy!
It's not the right time – you have a bright mind
You'll do great things in your lifetime!"
I scream "NO!" – I beat his ass
He turned around – I seen his wings {*bling!*}
And just then, the bell rings
I was in school... it was just a dream!
Oh, God (Oh God!)
Ohh, God (Oh God!)
Oh, God (Oh God!)
Hey! (Well, c'mon!)
It won't be long, 'til you see me on the news!
Another soul lost at sea – while taking a cruise!
Gasping for air makes the righteous path – harder to choose
Well, it's either fly or die, sink or swim!
Which one shall I choose? (Yeah!)
It won't be long...!
Gasping for air makes the righteous path – harder to choose
Fly or die, sink or swim!
Which one shall I choose? (Yeah!)
