See...I'm no ordinary snake, I'm a dragon
Peeling off my dead skins that deserve lacking
Fire indeed, I do breathe if you askin'
But not them flames only used for mass damage
Yo, I'm the light in your eyes and the bright in the sky
Some dare to call me a black devil in disguise
But my shades closer to the likes of rainbows
It's why my head you will never see hang low
Never owned a halo nor a pair of horns
Passion and wisdom beats at my core
Far from the norm, I don't chill on clouds
I'd rather dance to the rhythm of lightning sounds
Bounce too if you're filled with my groove
Life never stops playing so I'm always on the move
Peep my true hue through the sun or the moon
Can't change what I am regardless of what you do,
Or what you know nor how you view me
I didn't choose my form, the form chose me
Grow with full speed is what the winds told me
Let my fire breathe, pay no mind to cold feet
Raise them wings, stretch them free, and soar
So I'll go, soaring with everything I got
Long as I continue being everything but what I'm not
'Cause I ain't no snake hombre, sí?
I'm a dragon, peeling off my dead skins that deserves lacking
