Lyrics
Swimming around, there's something new to be found
It's such a beautiful sound, bare naked feet on the ground
Swimming around and I will sing you a song always

A neutical mile, you be the sun to my dial
I'll be the rank in your file, just come with me for a while
A nautical mile and I will shoot you the breeze always

Flowers in bloom, I get 'em off the moon
To make my baby go boom I put my grease in your spoon
Flowers in bloom and you're the colors of June some days

Here we come, we're not far away
And I'll tell you more when I come to stay
Shoot me a smile and I will show you the love always

Here we come and we're very close
And I'll give you more with this micro dose
Shoot me a smile and I will show you the love always

Out on the road I've got some cases to load
Some other places to go, some other faces to know
Out on the road where I will show you the love parade

A lateral move with nothing better to prove
Just hanging out with the crew, I'll put the wop in your doo
A lateral move with nothing better to prove some days

Give me a home, I cannot make it alone
I need to share what I own, I'll be the cream in your cone
Give me a home and I will show you the love always

Here we come, we're not far away
And I'll tell you more when I come to stay
Shoot me a smile and I will show you the love always

Here we come and we're very close
And I'll give you more with this micro dose
Shoot me a smile and I will show you the love always

I don't ever wanna lose my head
Last name's Hot and my first name's Red
I don't ever wanna get so tight
Wearing it loose like a summer's night

Strappin' for cash I'm eating bangers and mash
And I remember The Clash and I remember The Clash
Strappin' for cash but I will make you feel safe always

Bring it around just like the fox and the hound
Because it's openly crowned, I'm on a merry-go-round
Bring it around and I will sleep with a smile always

I never began because I'm never to end
I'm gonna buck every trend, I'm gonna make you my friend
I never began but I will give you a start always

Here we come, we're not far away
And I'll tell you more when I come to stay
Shoot me a smile and I will show you the love always

Here we come and we're very close
And I'll give you more with this micro dose
Shoot me a smile and I will show you the love always
