lyrics

Sky boy - walking down the street
looking real fly - sneakers on his feet
got the hot jams - moving to the beat
got it all figured it out cause he watches tv

Decks on high - step up to the scene
Noise floor low - get with the meme
microphone hot - better spit like a fiend
Everybody working on that teenage dream

Ain't this living
Ain't this life
Someone called it given
Maybe that's a right
Someone called it heaven
Till it was out of sight
Take a push for a seven
'baby that's so tight'

Apples and hype
Gonna dance all night
we keep going till the morning light
Look so good I gotta take a bite
Make you move till you feel alright

You can't stop you can't slow down
you've got to stay and stand your ground
you can't stop now you can't slow down
you've got to stay and stand your ground
you've got to stay and stand you're

Somebody knocking boots when I'm home alone
somebody double up like a chromozone
somebody stood me up like a microphone
Everybody take a bow because we are the unknown
4 am again luminescent by the pen again searching on and off again
for a few new now and thens
worth a little tenament for a friend again,
if you feel fin again tineman trendin to be a Finagin again

Mop it then Feel again stop it then, peel again
Drop it and squeel again hop and then real it in

Reel it in rap it up, stamp it and send
I never said I worked I just said the week ends.

All the Haterz gonna hate when I'm doing my thang
I've got 69 problems and a chicken Wang
I don't have size, or expensive toys
But I'm ready to fight and I make a big noise

white boy - walking down the street
asian sneakers - rocking to the beat
black music - moving feet
got it all figured out doesn't know what it means

Apples and hype
Gonna dance all night
we keep going till the morning light
Look so good I gotta take a bite
Make you move till you feel alright

Ain't this living
Ain't this life
Someone called it given
Maybe that's a right
Someone called it heaven
Till it was out of sight
Take a push for a seven
'baby that's so tight'
