The Fly
The U.R.E Lyrics

Uhh huh, uhh huh, uhh huh, fly!
Encouraging myself to fly.

Whoo! Whooo! This is for the kids!
This song is for the children.

This is only for the kids!!
This song is not for the adults.

Mommy! Daddy! I know, you love me
Addressing the parents and expressing gratitude for their love.

Bad grades, Playstations
Listing some of the things that the parents take away as punishment.

Restrictions, you take it from me
Complaining about the limitations imposed by the parents.

But God forbids, something goes wrong
Acknowledging that something could go wrong in life.

You call, the police
Putting the blame on the parents for calling the police in times of trouble.

Well guess what! I found
Excitedly revealing a discovery.

In the drawer, of Daddy's
Revealing the location of the discovery.

Oh God (oh God!) ohh God (oh God!)
Expressing fear and anxiety.

Hey! (c'mon!)
Encouraging oneself to keep going.

It won't be long, till you see me on the news!!
Foreshadowing an upcoming event that will attract media attention.

Another soul lost at sea - while taking a cruise!!
Using a metaphor to describe the tragedy that will occur.

Gasping for air makes the righteous path - harder to choose
Acknowledging the difficulty of making the right choices when in distress.

What if he'd fly or die! sink or swim!
Presenting two extreme choices.

Which one shall I choose?!?! (yeah!)
Expressing indecision and panic.

Stupid shrink - give fade, by the hour - three fifty
Expressing contempt for the psychiatrist and the expensive therapy.

He can't - figure out, what's wrong - with me
Labeling oneself as complex or elusive.

Dumbass - girlfriend, fuck my friend - she's a ho
Expressing disgust and frustration with the girlfriend and the friend.

I tried telling - mom and dad
Tried to communicate with parents about the issues but they were unresponsive.

But they're more concerned - with the poor falling out
Parents have bigger issues to worry about than the child's problems.

Now I'm in with - the negotiator
Shifting to a new scene where the singer meets someone else.

And he says to me (you don't want to die boy)
Someone else trying to persuade the artist not to harm oneself.

(It's not the right time, you have a bright mind)
Trying to convince the singer to believe in a positive future.

(You'll do great things in your lifetime)
Offering a hopeful outlook on the singer's future.

I screamed no!! I beat his ass
Reacting violently to the situation.

He turned around, I seen his wings
Revealing the supernatural aspect of this scene.

And just then, the bell rings
Ending the dream sequence and returning to reality.

I was in school, it was just a dream!!
Realizing that everything was just a dream.
