lyrics

Pied Piper | Numatik ft. James Landrum

[Verse 1]
Four, more juice from Marlow
See our role models rock poised in purple
Fertile, got money, they hurt though
Be a role model, motto ‘don’t be hurtful’
An’ so you see em’, ‘picture perfect’ cut-outs
See the picture’s worth it, but the perfect jus’ snuck out
Like the perfect die out, or never make it home
So they sell out, stuck in the middle of what they feel is work now
They’re strength zapped by the work-out
Work now an’ prayin’ that it gon’ work out
A nine-to-five, somethin’ we analyze
A tribe that come together make music an’ thrive
Survive is not an option, I lie inside o’ caution
Toxic ― instead o’ sippin’ lies, I sip arson
A fire starter ― engulfed in my own flames
In armor, see the stars burnin’, in turn I run harder!

[Hook]
Meteor showers in the night, burning bright ―
Searching for a sign, will I find, what it is I’m searching for?
Echoes in the night, of a Pied Piper ― (whoa)
Searching for a sign, will I find, what it is I’m searching for, Oh, I’m searching ―

[Verse 2]
Before wrist watches, an’ gold rings
Imagination chasing’, in forests, it was an’ old thing
Kids be playing’, creating’, and keep safe
Young minds realizing’ their dreams an’ just chase it
Heart racing’, impossibilities possible
Everything was a probable, shootin’ stars was a logical
Choice ― An’ anything that you dreamed of
Would never die out, ecstatic you Geeked-Up
Free of heavy shackles, labels an’ moving’ backwards
Attacks would keep you quiet, now running’ to start a riot
You like it, an’ so you try it, you leading’ all of the fighting’
They fussing’ for you to stop ― but dreamers they keep riding’ ―
They keep riding’— we keep riding—
They keep riding’— we keep riding—
They keep riding’— we keep riding—
They fussing’ for you to stop ― but dreamers they keep riding’ ―
