about
The latest single from Major Niño
lyrics
Well I don't wanna be just the sand between your toes
Alone on a beach sans those cheesy sandals ads and those
fake Hollywood dreams with that synthetic silky sheen
(Can we ) Dream up a new dream
And whip up a new scheme?
All they do is spit us out, all they do is spit us out
All they do is spit us out (chew us up) and spit us out
Well you know that enough is never quite enough
We done drained the whole damn swamp and shot Nessie through the heart
We could turn our beets to meat but lost all the salad to the heat
Microwave up a new batch and code a new world from scratch
All we do is
run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run (All we do is)
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run
run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run (All we do is)
All we do is run , run, run, run, run, run, run, run
And we run around
Everyday they try to hustle us, cant be soft these days gotta toughen up
First they act like they in love with us, until they spit us up and had enough of us
I don't know what the recourse is, they see humans as resources
They get cash and leech of us, in the pursuit of mansions and Porsche's
Speeding through life tryin' to catch a care while running on a treadmill
You could have all the money in the world but one day you gonna be dead still
How you gon' act when things turn upside down and dead real?
When everyone folds n' you standing strong, they act like you in left field
Feeling like I'm Max Sheffield the universe is my nanny
This setup wasn't built for me to win, but I am so they can't stand me
You never gonna stop me dog, you're best bet is that you might ban me
But until then, I'll be on your head, underneath my feet like the sand be
Her Venus-flytrap mouth tries to spit that culture out
It's getting darker in her shady sundown town
A garden, a fence so white, and picket lines that melt
Is this just a daydream, too much L in the bloodstream?
