Hey what's the big deal? Tell me how to feel? I know where we boomeranged and fell from grace. Point me to the stars I'm up for the chase. I know where we fell on our face. Jump with me. You jump with me. Hey, what's the big deal- I'm an animal. (The answer landed on my rooftop. Whoa.) I'm an animal. (The future and the truth, on my rooftop. Whoa.) I'm an animal. (It's calling me to work it out.) [x2] (Whoa) I don't wanna boomerang. I don't wanna cannonball. I'm not angling. I don't want to fall. Tell me I'm the anchor of my own ascension.

(The future and the truth, on my rooftop. Whoa.) I'm an animal. (It's calling me to work it out.) (Whoa) I am vibrating at the speed of light.
