[Intro]
Yo, yo, yo, yo

[Verse 1]
There's an elephant, elephant inside the room
Well, one of us had to see it all soon
For one it's taking up, taking up all of the room
I nearly lost my footing when he hurt you
Sink or step down from the ranks in platoon
Tired of the hierarchy and I'm tired of the monsoon
All I want to do is continue to bloom
But oh, the eclipse
Oh, the powers of moons
Stood in the shade
(Watch how the sunflowers grew)
Something to do, yo
Waiting for
(So irritated from you)
Why'd I presume? Yo
One foot in the two
One foot with the troops
One hand on a zeggae
One rat 'round a room
Oh geez, who are you?
Did you escape from the zoo?
I-I'd heard that, I'd heard that it
Escaped on the news, yeah
