lyrics

Everybody I know is borderline NPC...but that's alright...

I wanna be my enemy,
I wanna be my enemy.
I gotta walk with my feet up.
I gotta work with my hands.
I gotta play with the beat.
Yeaa I gotta play with the beat.
I gotta walk with my feet up.
I gotta work with my hands.
I gotta play with the beat.
Yeaa I gotta play with the beat.

When I step up in the room no one's around.
No one here, nobody there...
'Cos I'm the bodyboxXx!
...yeaa the bodyboxXx.
When I step up in the room no one's around.
No one here, nobody there...
'Cos I'm the bodyboxXx!
...yeaa the bodyboxXx.

Everybody I know is borderline pet human.

But she's a lil'erRrty,
yeah, she's a lil'erRrty,
She walks with her feet up,
And she works with her hands,
And she plays with my feet
Yeah, she plays with my feet.
Walks with her feet up,
And she works with her hands,
And she plays with my feet
Yeah, she plays with my feet.

Everybody I know is borderline realistic,
but that's alright...
I wanna be my enemy!
I wanna be my enemy.
Everybody I know is borderline NPC,
and the truth is the only thing that's right, but wait a minute...WHO AM I?

Got to be the one they represent
when they just don't know what to think about,
they just need to know that I'm the man.

The pressure's on, the lights are out
The ceiling's cavin' out
If I ever make it, I'll pay
I've been in this club too many times before,
trynna crack the code,
everyone I know is addicted to the dope.
Our forefathers...
seconds cuttig into seasons.
Then they casually pass away
always whispered in their sleep,
running back to safety
shackled up,
slashed up,
like Cupid in the darkest night.
Lowlifes on a livin' spree.
Everything's on point,
from Treehouse to the bank.
A free lunch on my mind.
Starry Night's on fire,
from Bedrock to the choir
lookin' for a form of escape...
Run away! Run away!
You're never comin' back.
You're never comin back.
You're never comin back.
