lyrics

The Professor

Yeah back like we never left but it feel right
Misdirection, the darkest of lights fill my night
Time sight with more than enough of the contrast
For me to talk all my shit with the bombast
Staying on task, takin off fast
Moving too much, I been tryna make it last
No more time to wait, I took my fate up outta class
Tryna make my way but now my lane got a crash
Slow motion, it's caution for all the road work
Flares out cuz the flows make they toes hurt
Close the curtains and let's start a dance army
Turn a bedroom into a no pants party

I on't dance hardly, old as iCarly
Three little birds told me and Bob Marley
That we'd need to head to the creek with Chris Farley
Down by the river where my people like to party
Aye, it's like I on't dance hardly
Yeah, I said old as iCarly
Three little birds told me and Bob Marley
That we'd need to head to the creek with Chris Farley
Yeah, I said down by the river where my people like to party
Yeah, I said down by the river

Ayo I like to party too, I know it's hardly news
But I can hardly move, the carpet's cool
Yeah stuck, aye I got caught up on the groove
I had to cut a rug and let it do what it do
What's cool, yeah when my system's overheatin
Feel it in the air, they ain't gon be no defeatin
What's a beatin, when you don't really feel the pain
That shit might make you mad but it don't feel the same
What's a little rain when you soakin wet
And what's a little chain when you bout to cash a check
What's a breath when you don't protect your neck
And what's a dance with death when you don't care what's next

Yo I on't dance hardly, old as iCarly
Three little birds told me and Bob Marley
That we'd need to head to the creek with Chris Farley
Down by the river where my people like to party
Aye, yo I on't dance hardly
Yeah, aye old as iCarly
Three little birds told me and Bob Marley
That we'd need to head to the creek with Chris Farley

Yo beats, lyrics, turn up the vibe
Givin thanks right now for everyone that's alive
And everyone that died and everyone that passed
We gon live it up for y'all cuz time moves fast
Life is too short and everybody dies
The world's so cruel and everywhere are lies
What's the point pops? Yo the point is this
They ain't gon stop shootin down so your shots can't miss
Ain't gon change shit if you don't aim when you shoot
Problem is it's fake when you claim that it's true
Ain't gon change shit if you don't aim when you shoot
Problem is it's fake when you claim that it's true

I on't dance hardly, old as iCarly
Three little birds told me and Bob Marley
That we'd need to head to the creek with Chris Farley
Down by the river where my people like to party
Yeah, it's like I on't dance hardly
Yo, I said old as iCarly
Three little birds told me and Bob Marley
That we'd need to head to the creek with Chris Farley

Yeah, down by the river
Where my people like to party
Yeah, I said down by the river
