Front flip, back flip, nothing's safe
I will always leap and this will be my weight
[Verse 1]
I have always been a horse
Since the day I was born
They would never let me race
Lead me to the water trough
In their parable, I had to scoff
Ass thinks he controls his fate
Push me up this winding ramp
And one through four, my hoofs did stamp
With a carrot did they bait
I ended on a diving board
The view made me say "my Lord"
Then a cattle prod made me scream "wait"
Be my weight
Front flip, back flip, nothing's safe
I will always leap and this will be my weight
[Verse 2]
I never did quite understand
Why I could not mount a man
Why don't they reciprocate?
They found a way to still use me
I walk a ramp to be free
Knowing I will always leap
I'd be as great as Al-Burāq
With a prophet on my back
Stubbornness has a weight
I will be a new Greek myth
Archimedes' pegasus
Could a horse be a saint?
Be my weight
[Verse 3]
Underwater I maybe hear
The seashell sounds of children's cheers
Hive-bound in giving thanks
Humanism runs amok
Herds run through their own muck
I cleanse myself thrice each day
Break a leg, I'll still be good
They'll probably make me one of wood
If I break them all, then I'll have four mates
Diving horse of pedigree
Might you want to be like me?
You too can control your fate
Be me weight
