I just can't stay home They can't just leave peace alone And so the problems keep growin' And they turn over in the H2O to show Their dry side beside the dark side they wanna hide They always wanted to hide it Because behind it they're cryin' from death and dyin' And they better be when I'm in 'Cause I'm as scratchable as diamond And about as rare but you don't care After all, you dare to tear me down But my air is toxic A lot of it you can't survive a full minute with it Don't even bother If you do, go ask your father Why he didn't teach you to swim in water Now you're in the deep end with me Hope you've been listening 'Cause this shark is closing the distance So say goodbye before he finishes gnawing off your pride Tell the Devil I said hi Never mind I forgot I branded your thigh With my name underlined All letters capitalized Oh, I don't wanna fight But I know you're gonna try Oh, I don't wanna fight But I know you're gonna try me I'm just a wolf who doesn't like having his teeth bein' pulled I strike out when it's cold But putting out lights gets old I don't get sold easily to petty ideas Your load is heavy But there's heavier things to get off the boat I can just blow you off my shoulder But I don't 'cause I admire your persistence Don't you know I call haters fans though For in the grand scheme of things They lend a big hand to fame (I) Guess the fast lane owes a debt to shame It's weird, like you, but that's just the way But sometimes I see something outrageous You ragin' on my pages like the wild without cages And wage war on my lyrical placements You want a reply? Better not keep you waitin' Oh, I don't wanna fight But I know you're gonna try Oh, I don't wanna fight But I know you're gonna try me Moreover, lord knows how much things grow cold If you show how wasteful one can be No, I won't let that consume me Shoo! Boo! Sweep you back with a broom What do I gotta do? Perhaps move When they go low, we go high Soon, the staircase is high enough That nobody can climb They dim; we shine They cringe; we strive We're owning the fight Alright This hip-hop is nonstop The lot of ya can't top what we got Or stop what we shot We're nibblin' a rope with a weight That's about to drop The knob is twitchin' And soon reality's kickin' in Don't be oblivious to it You don't shiver in warm weather Whether or not it gets better Don't make the ledger more red; sure I'll take some criticism But violence or cynicism There's issues with 'em Just critical thinkin' Linking us together Better that way Say, we have more similarities We just need clarity To understand our disparities If we care with these things Things will change Let us arrange it; face it Head on; Let's save it Now that I think of it You know what we could really use to save this? Listen, it's a little thing you excel in You need no assistance It's a thing I like to call: persistence Oh, I don't wanna fight But I know you're gonna try Oh, I don't wanna fight But I know you're gonna try me
