It Was a Battle (The Bigger Fish)

Long long ago
Four men descended upon Vinny's domain
Searching for one thing
Personal Growth
However, as their journey continued
They began to realize
In order to get things you really want
You have to fight
They could not have known
The perils they would face
Would be greater than any they had seen before
This is where our story begins

Had to get a job cause I needed some money
Looking at my bank account wasn't so funny
Now I'm working with a siren and some coffee
Waking up in the morning - God please off me
Brown line in the AM six forty five (Shout out Dawn Johnson)
Boss getting mad cause I ain't showing up on time
Angie tryna blame me for all her faults
Gotta come to terms, I work for Howard Schultz
I realized it all one month ago
Had to watch an hour long video
Howard hates on unions, c'mon bitch please
You're the motherfucker tryna sell NFTs
Workin every day, Corporatist slave
Merchandise Mart, Hurting my heart
Workin every day, serving bald fucks
Merchandise Mart, first floor, Starbucks

It was a battle
Always hard to tackle
Doing day to days
While chained by a shackle
It was a battle
Y'all take mass L's
Crying like a baby
Shaking on their rattle
It was a battle
Get back on the saddle
Fighting for your life
With a ping pong paddle
It was a battle
Welcome to our castle
The number one position
We always seem to straddle
Onto the next dish
I'm dying for a shift switch
I need some alone time
For me and my sandwich
Onto the next dish
Y'all want us to vanquish
Stop getting so pissy
Over me and my Danish
Onto the next dish
Screaming out in anguish
Looking at it now
I wish I was catfished
Onto the next dish
Reaching for our new wish
We have to remember
There's always a bigger fish

Fresh out the psych ward
Call me a psycho
Ed Sheeran's out man
And he's best friends with Michael
Scarred from the nights when
I smooched my best friend
Oh you wanna help man
Get me outta debt then
So I'm at the register
I got no money
Spent it all at Auntie Anne's
What's so funny
Aspire to be buff
Like Correll
Real raw energy
Not like Jeleel
Big shout out to
The even bigger fish
Brought us close together
Now all the fools are rich
Swimming in the ocean
Need sun tan lotion
The musical motion
Cerebral Love Potion
Wish people would forget when I pibbed myself
Shit never happened, think for yourself
Was a calculated stunt
All to put me in a rut
Cause on that day
I didn't bust a nut

It was a battle
Always hard to tackle
Doing day to days
While chained by a shackle
It was a battle
Y'all take mass L's
Crying like a baby
Shaking on their rattle
It was a battle
Get back on the saddle
Fighting for your life
With a ping pong paddle
It was a battle
Welcome to our castle
The number one position
We always seem to straddle
Onto the next dish
I'm dying for a shift switch
I need some alone time
For me and my sandwich
Onto the next dish
Y'all want us to vanquish
Stop getting so pissy
Over me and my Danish
Onto the next dish
Screaming out in anguish
Looking at it now
I wish I was catfished
Onto the next dish
Reaching for our new wish
We have to remember
There's always a bigger fish

People been playing with me my whole life
Body language and words used like a knife
Staring at me with eyes of lies and deceit
Like you still don't know I hold the receipt
I never used them, trusted them too much
Not understanding the concept of love
But that I look back at my time
I realize it was not only your fault, but mine
I should have never let you play with my heart
When I had the ammunition to tear you apart
But goddamnit, that shit in the past
I got new people who care for my ass
Even though we went through troubles of own
The shit we got is always gonna hold
No matter the pictures or the feuds
They mean more than you ass ever could
The fools took me for who I was
And for that, our bond is basically blood
You wanna call me to see how I'm doing
I'm with the homies, and we fucking booling

It was a battle
Always hard to tackle
Doing day to days (It was a battle)
While chained by a shackle (Y'all take mass L's)
Crying like a baby (It was a battle)
Shaking on their rattle (Get back on the saddle)
Fighting for your life (It was a battle)
With a ping pong paddle (Welcome to our castle)
The number one position
We always seem to straddle
Onto the next dish
I'm dying for a shift switch
I need some alone time (Onto the next dish)
For me and my sandwich (Y'all want us to vanquish)
Stop getting so pissy (Onto the next dish)
Over me and my Danish (Screaming out in anguish)
Looking at it now (Onto the next dish)
I wish I was catfished (Reaching for our new wish)
We have to remember
There's always a bigger fish
We have to remember
There's always a bigger fish
We have to remember
There's always a bigger fish
*tsunami sounds*
We have to remember
There's always a bigger fish
AHHH

Glub glub glub glub glub glub glub glub
Ha ha ha
Fucking hell
