Tiger
Man-Fred! Lyrics

Good kid, bad brains
Despite being a good person, Man-Fred! acknowledges their poor decision-making skills.

Livin' for whatever
Man-Fred! lives impulsively, without much thought or reason.

Tight rope, no chains
Man-Fred! lives dangerously and recklessly, without any constraints or limitations.

Holdin' it together
Man-Fred! tries to keep their life from falling apart despite their reckless behavior.

But it's hard to see clouds
Man-Fred! can't see hope or positivity in their life.

When you're six feet underground
When you feel buried in your problems and struggles.

Keep building a house
Man-Fred! tries to create a good life for themselves.

Then tearing it down
But their reckless lifestyle ultimately destroys any good they create.

And it goes on, on
Man-Fred! recognizes that this cycle of destruction will continue indefinitely.

Dumb coconut, can't break it open
Man-Fred! compares themselves to a stupid and unbreakable object, highlighting their own pessimism and lack of faith in their ability to change.

Easy tiger
Man-Fred! reminds themselves to take things slow and not rush into things.

You're only sixteen goin' on forever
Despite their recklessness and problems, Man-Fred! recognizes that they are still young and have their whole life ahead of them.

No rain, clear skies
Man-Fred! acknowledges their good fortune in having an easy life compared to others.

At least I got the weather
Despite their problems, Man-Fred! still has some positives in their life.

Bought in, sold out
Man-Fred! has conformed to society's expectations and lost their sense of individuality.

Finger up to heaven
Man-Fred! is rebelling against religion and spirituality.

'Cause I still see your face
Man-Fred! can't forget someone important to them, even amidst all of their own problems.

Getting lost in the crowd
Despite their recognition of this person, they can't locate or find them in their memory.

And I still hear the sound
Man-Fred! can still hear the memories and echoes of happier times, even amidst all their problems.

Of the pack when they howl
Man-Fred! remembers how they fit in with a group of friends or peers.

Gasping for air, I'm chokin'
Man-Fred! is struggling to survive amidst their own problems and reckless lifestyle.

Runnin' with no sign of slowin'
Man-Fred! can't seem to stop or slow down their destructive behavior.

Til my legs are broken
Even if it destroys them, Man-Fred! is determined to keep running recklessly.
