Captain
Danitsa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm the captain
The captain of my life boat
If you want a seat
You gotta keep up with the speed
'Cause I'm the captain
The captain of my life now
If you mess with me
You better learn how to swim

Riding on the waves
Sailing on the ocean
Going my own way
Straight for the horizon
I'm moving away, bitches
I don't need your lies
And you better recognize
That I'm better on my own now
Enemies tryna get me on my knees
I can see them everywhere
And they're tryna get to me
But they'll never get to me
'Cause no one can get to me
I'm further than a million miles away now

'Cause I'm the captain
The captain of my life boat
If you want a seat
You gotta keep up with the speed
'Cause I'm the captain
The captain of my life now
If you mess with me
You better learn how to swim

No matter the clouds
No matter the rain
No matter the storm
I'm staying the same
I'm staying the course
I won't let you in
'Cause the last fucking time I let you in
I almost drowned, boy
I'm unsinkable
Doing the unthinkable
Unrespectable
Now I'm undetectable
And you'll never find me, bye bye bye bye
Don't care if you cry, bye bye bye

'Cause I'm the captain
The captain of my life boat
If you want a seat
You gotta keep up with the speed
'Cause I'm the captain
The captain of my life now
If you mess with me
You better learn how to swim

I'm the captain
The captain of my life boat
If you want a seat
You gotta keep up with the speed
'Cause I'm the captain
The captain of my life now




If you mess with me
You better learn how to swim
