PDTOTG ft. DOS4GW Lyrics

There's a lion in a cage right now

Unphased by the chains from the mane to the snout

And the trainer tryna tame her ain't proud of his

Day to day enslaved by a self made power

So they clown on the stage for a crowd who just

Paid their employer while their wages aren't sound

Well this prowler and her ace are 'bout to wil

Their containment is fowl break the fuck out

She pulls the ringleader's face from its skull and

Replaces his screams with the taste of her paws while the

Jaws drop in the audience big top shocked

It's a race to escape or be mauled

The trainer plays like he didn't unlock her as he

Bathes in the pain of the maimed and appalled

He draws that nine from it's case in resolve then

Paints that stage with his brains and his faults

Please don't tap on glass

Yeah, and don't feed 'em leave that to the staff

Please don't tap on the glass

Rattle a cage, a cage rattle back

There's an ape in a man made hole

This moment swingin' freely from a plastic rope

And the trees in his habitat planted for his

Happiness breath of his ancestor's homes

So he hangs from a branch onto hope that his

Dreams of a natural landscape are close and he

Plays monkey games on jungle gyms

Or sits passively masses behold

And he sees young grandpop, spoilin' the tots

And he sees a drunk nanny all annoyed with her job

And he sees two classmates forming a plot while their

Chaperone watches from the corner, exhausted

And he seethes dreamin' of a kingdom to come

Sleep time now so they leave him alone

But the keys to his cage are in reach

Now he sees an escape and a route break the fuck out

He emerges determined to bail from his

Personal cell a merciful hell sets

Course from his former luxurious jail house

Curious now for a world he can almost smell

But there at the edge of the park

He stares through the threshold, daring and dark

Too tame to survive, too scared to depart

He returns to his home he barely embarked

Please don't tap on glass

Yeah, and don't feed 'em leave that to the staff

Please don't tap on the glass

Rattle a cage, a cage rattle back
