VERSE 1
Back of the pack
Pack on my back
Matter of fact I'm is
Strapped
Ticonderoga in hand
clan-destiny
Awaits disparate fates
Who the coolest crew who the dudes
who got the jewelers jewels
Land of the egos to build
Watch your tray for your metaphors spill
sticks in grip
catching the side eyes of the flyest I guess I finesse
Jocks and they straps
Nerds and they labs
Fly shawtys asymmetric intact

Wise kid operating only in absolutes
step into that feeling of kindred souls
(let it go)
You will find your meaning out in the world
Wise kid, find the feeling
don’t give, you will find the meaning
Wise kid, find the feeling
don’t give, you will find the...
