The hype beast with a tight beat
I made this shit hard so I might skeet
And I produced it so the ego stroking
Get a lil loose then let's just keep it open
Cuz I came to wreck on any territory
Rap my ass off that's mandatory
A problem kid in class teacher can't ignore me
Try to listen but what they teach is boring
They hadn't found my interest yet I guess
But neither had I
I never understood the teachers pet
But I'm not judging that guy
What I'm really tryna say is this
Finding what you love is bliss
Let's teach these kids to think for themselves
F*ck the system go speak for yourself
How you gonna make a fish fly
An how you gonna make a bird swim
Too specific with the guidelines
Gotta youngin out here swervin
How you gonna make a fish fly
An how you gonna make a bird swim
Too specific with the guidelines
Gotta youngin out here swervin
An I be tipping bottles back
You could find me where the throttle's at
Haven't been a role model I ain't tryna act
But I gotta problem kid f*cking starter pack
An that was me looking at my youth
Around 16 found the 80's proof
An that's a lotta kids who join the loop
Just wish back then I knew the truth
So I'm speaking out now spark conversation
I jus feel we should re route education
Everyone's got their own implications
I'm not holding back no abbreviation
This the light I see when I write in dark
This the spark I need to make the art
This what I need to move and grow
Once you understand yourself it starts to show ayy
How you gonna make a fish fly
An how you gonna make a bird swim
Too specific with the guidelines
Gotta youngin out here swervin
How you gonna make a fish fly
An how you gonna make a bird swim
Too specific with the guidelines
Gotta youngin out here swervin
I could hold my tongue and say nothing
I just wanna spark some discussion
Don't miss the message if you hear me cussing
Don't blind yourself if you feeling something
Don't let me hide you from your own strengths
It might take a couple more lengths
It might take a bit deeper search
Might have to go until your feet will hurt (uh)
Never felt right growing up in class
If fish don't climb how would you react
Tip toeing by the surface enough
Shit you bound to dive in if it ain't opening up
Yeah I just glide by the holiday lights and the
Ambience be reaching new heights and yuh
Different learner but who's making the boxes
And why confine doors I'mma hit up the locksmith
Path of thoughts that could lead you to toxic
Kind of behavior pure obedience brought in
Tried to push and force until I crept round
And did some brainstorming this is what I found
How you gonna make a fish fly
An how you gonna make a bird swim
Too specific with the guidelines
Gotta youngin out here swervin
How you gonna make a fish fly
An how you gonna make a bird swim
Too specific with the guidelines
Gotta youngin out here swervin
