I
Can give you a good reason why
It's important to try
Girl what's your sign?
Who knows what could happen given time
As events intertwine
And coincide
The stars occasionally align
High above us in the sky
She thinks she's a nine
I think she's a five
Thought I was a nine
Always treated like a five
Now we each got peace of mind
Together we shine
Never dropping dimes
Always I'll attempt to provide
Even though it may not be successful every time
Went out to clear my mind
Sat in the drivers seat of the ride
Took it out of park, then put it in drive
Most lifeforms just trying to survive
Enjoy it while you can
Understand
That in the end not a single life gets out alive
Seems like nearly everyone has a type
And that they follow the hype
Through a life
That's rife
With strife
Still looking for a wife
That's one thing I'd truly like
Every single day and night
Over and over again I've
Tried and tried
Still I have yet to find
A woman with whom I really vibe
For you I always got time
I'll be the groom if you want to be the bride
Side by side
Off into the sunset or moonlight we ride
Nearby a low or high tide
Have the time of our lives
That's my kind of something nice
In a world that can be colder than ice
Stay alert, or you could pay the price
She thinks she's a nine
I think she's a five
Thought I was a nine
Always treated like a five
It's happened more than twice
Different women told me to take a hike
And that they would rather be a dyke
Happy to see my head on a spike
Yikes!
Not kidding when they said sugar and spice
Stars and stripes
Darkness or lights
Birds and planes in the midst of flights
People acting like they have special rights
Quick to start fights
Meanwhile, I continue to roll the dice
I got nothing, everything or just a slice
I'm
In my prime
Actually wise and a one of a kind guy
As time passes by
Whether on the ground or in the sky
It was the truth or a lie
Eventually, we all do die
Originally I was blind
And surprised
Now I often see it with my third eye
Whether I'm sober or I'm extremely high
Living life like I'm in 2025
Didn't just visualize
Or realize
Felt energized
Yet far from satisfied
Often I had to improvise
In order to avoid getting hypnotized
Always lived such a different life
