Fly as I Dare
Shredders Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fly, fly, fly as I dare (fly, fly, fly, fly)
Fly, fly, fly as I dare (fly, fly, fly, fly)
Fly, fly, fly as I dare (fly)
Fly as I dare
Fly as I dare
Fly as I dare
There's nowhere to be
It's all air to me

Worst wings, got me on a crooked glide
Sippin' thinkin' how I'd like to get away with homicide
I wouldn't though
No, I wouldn't leave the scene
I'd listen while they profile
Like what the fuck you mean "disturbin'"?

Web sling, spider mandem, stick thin
Sick Trim kicks it like we ain't broke, cougar den
Archer Sterling silver fox, dumb as rocks
Trumped her box and knockers
Watched her cock back and cold clock the boss
Punched out, clocked in, dumb nose
Leave thin skin half friends, them bones
Cats eat your face when you're alone when you die
And you gon' be alone when you die, that's for sure
Sorta sorry, only sorta though
Sort it later, born a hater, grew respectable
Also hater still, million dollar water bill
Flushing that trash and washing my hands
Fucking dummies

Reading is the best
Words mean things, don't get left
Don't get stepped on, get fed
Don't play dumb, don't get dead
Or do
Whatever man, just let go of me
Whatever man, just let go of me
Whatever man, just get off of me
Whatever man

Basically I think they're lacking agency
Took the A to Z, removed the be and why that lay between
Complacency drew the foul so flagrantly
I'm trying to talk to God but there's too much latency
Maybe that is make believe
Designed to keep my pound of steam engine on the train line
Did I mention meanwhile I've been getting air time?
I've been lawless, I've been lawless
I might never come down

Spread the sound, spread the love
Spread the blood on the globe
Another beat, another spot to unload letters in bold
Another verse left for you to decode
Get it or get your dome clobbered with a bottle of 'mo (uh, uh-uh)
I'm on the slow road, mind open
I know what I know
Scoping for the perfect beat
Slow motion 'til I find the beach
Because my time is sweet
It ain't much, but it's a lot to me
Meaning I don't stress
See the bee for the honey, no less
Throw dice 'til the four, five, six
Let it ride 'til it don't, trying to live

Take what I got make it dope to me
Take what I got make it dope to me
Take what I got make it dope
Super fly from the top rope
How it's supposed to be

Fly as I
Fly as I dare
Fly as I fly
Fly as I dare
Fly, fly as I dare
There's nowhere to be
It's all air to me
Fly as I
Fly as I dare
Fly, fly, fly as I dare
Fly as I dare
There's nowhere to be
It's all air to me




It's all air to me
It's all air to me
