Fighting fire with fire Getting higher and higher Torch the bowl with the lighter See the shadows get slighter I ignite on the night like a new sun Pregame over now we hit the new club I’m not tryna take a shot I’m already burning hot Blood is flowing so no need to clot Take me to the dance floor The music leaves me wanting more So I shout to the sky like a shaman Like a freshman on his last pack of ramen Like a black church at the Amen But this ain’t no old hymn I’m creating my own rhythm My own melody and lyrics It’s catchier than deer ticks Classier than top hits It’s a flow that can’t be stopped A tidal wave that can’t be mopped I float around this dancing area Overwhelmed with mass hysteria I become one with the crowd We yell but the music is loud Our songs coalesce into clouds Dizzy we aren’t stupid or proud We’re just happy to still be around So it’s arms up til the suns up It’s beer pong and true love It’s small talk and dope subs It’s the perfect night Loose but hella tight Here and there a fight I didn’t puke but I might But if I don’t fly my kite How will I ever see the light? So I push it to the limits I bask in every minute I go hard til I’m in it Grab the world and spin it Breakdance in a basement Trampolines instead of pavement When I turn loose on the outside I am underneath the night sky I bounce to the beat Coming off every street And every person I meet My prism no longer imprisoned I view the world with super vision I see a Mona Lisa Spray painted on the concrete Every pile of pizza boxes Is the leaning tower of Pisa The lady begging is Mother Theresa The honking horns: Ave Maria My head is spinning, I just hurled My arms are wide, my sails unfurled My mind is free to see the world

One Hell of a Night
Fighting fire with fire Getting higher and higher Torch the bowl with the lighter See the shadows get slighter I ignite on the night like a new sun Pregame over now we hit the new club I’m not tryna take a shot I’m already burning hot Blood is flowing so no need to clot Take me to the dance floor The music leaves me wanting more So I shout to the sky like a shaman Like a freshman on his last pack of ramen Like a black church at the Amen But this ain’t no old hymn I’m creating my own rhythm My own melody and lyrics It’s catchier than deer ticks Classier than top hits It’s a flow that can’t be stopped A tidal wave that can’t be mopped I float around this dancing area Overwhelmed with mass hysteria I become one with the crowd We yell but the music is loud Our songs coalesce into clouds Dizzy we aren’t stupid or proud We’re just happy to still be around So it’s arms up til the suns up It’s beer pong and true love It’s small talk and dope subs It’s the perfect night Loose but hella tight Here and there a fight I didn’t puke but I might But if I don’t fly my kite How will I ever see the light? So I push it to the limits I bask in every minute I go hard til I’m in it Grab the world and spin it Breakdance in a basement Trampolines instead of pavement When I turn loose on the outside I am underneath the night sky I bounce to the beat Coming off every street And every person I meet My prism no longer imprisoned I view the world with super vision I see a Mona Lisa Spray painted on the concrete Every pile of pizza boxes Is the leaning tower of Pisa The lady begging is Mother Theresa The honking horns: Ave Maria My head is spinning, I just hurled My arms are wide, my sails unfurled My mind is free to see the world
