Come and see me and maybe you'll die But I can keep you in artwork, the fluid kind That's enough for excitements today Prostrated faded, it's pay-to-play Come and see me yeah, maybe you'll try I've been holding these pyros till they could fly Open up and enlighten again Enjoy the skyline, it's an incremental end Walk in on your own feet Says the rover It's my way or they all leave Says the rover The rover The rover Ça suffit, hell yeah, maybe it's time You can't stick to the highways, it's suicide I'm welling up with excitements again The apex resolves, you need to tell your friends Walk in on your own feet Says the rover It's my way or they all leave Says the rover The rover The rover The rover Come and see me, yeah baby, let's cry Satin face in some worlds we’d be too kind Nature’s subjected to fires again Falling for my independence Walk in on your own feet Says the rover You were high end on the wrong street Till the rover Said hop in, all in The rover Hop in, all in The rover The rover All in, all in The rover He barely has to seek repentants
