about

This song is a satirical work. I'm poking fun at the idea of falling in love. If love is a hole you fell into, then i'll be the rope that pulls you out." I think its nonsense that people fall in love. It's a choice to be in love and to care for someone.

lyrics

Running as fast as I can.
Speed limit saying, “Slow down man!’
But I got places to be, oh you can’t stop delivery.
These hands that touch fast forward our lives like a 90 minute movie where the star falls four times in love.

Get with the program
Show you how it goes down
Keep with the flow now, don’t stop, let it rock.

Let me/ show you how I do it
Turn a solid into fluid
Talk about flow... well, I talk through it
Put the beat on I talk to it
It talks back... That's how I do it

She used to sing, While I’d spit my bars
High on you I was walking on mars
So we baked a cookie
Then the cookie crumbled
The best became the worst
And the blessed became the cursed
But its all doo-ey (Do-able)
The goo-ey always comes with the gullable.
That’s why I ain’t mad, yea that’s why I aint mad
Cause……

I don’t wanna fall in love, like an accident;
Cupid’s shot from above.
But if I cant find love, I’ll just have to make it
Oh, yea, I’ll just have to make it.
Oh, yea, I’ll just have to make it.

Walking as slow as I can,
Speed limit saying, “Hurry up man!”
But I got nowhere to be.
Oh you can’t rush, reality.
These hands that touch,
Press pause on love,
Like a lifetime family movie.
Where the star stands, only one time in love.

If Love is a hole that you fell, you fell in to.
Then I’ll be the rope that pulls, that pulls you out.
