[Verse 1]
Back in the day I was a big H cloud
I was really airy, and I wasn't so loud
Momma gave me a p-p chain
Got really hot and nobody to blame
My insides just went insane
I heated up 10 million K
My core began to fuse and I shot gamma rays
C12 shot out every which way
Breaking hydrostatic equilibrium made my day
But then I wouldn't fuse, gravity refused
I got really lonely, I got really fat
I was a red giant, I didn't like that
Lost some weight, got really small
My bud said I was a hot carbon ball
[Verse 2]
My buddy's been talkin but now let me get rockin
It was way back when we were all hydrogen
I was jealous of his p-p chain
Wishing my mom had done the same
He was making helium, but I wasn't feelin him
He began to fuse carbon long before I
I was becoming a red giant when he started to die
He thought it was cool when he started to lose weight
But now he'll see that he's always been second rate
[Verse 3]
My friend began to grow, I got really greedy
Taking up my space getting really needy
So I started to steal his stuff
At times I just had to get rough
So then we got into a brawl
Because I wanted to be the bigger ball
As I reached the Chandrasekhar
I was filled with remorse, I had gone too far
When I got to 1.4 solar ma**
I knew my time was ending fast
I could not escape my fate
Having already hurt my binary mate
That was when I could not hold on
I had a Supernova type one
[Verse 4]
I got too bloated, my friend had exploded
He vanished from the sky, I simply cannot lie
I was mistaken I had not k**ed my mate
He came back, sealing my fate
He's back to steal from me now I will never be free
