We Were Promised Jetpacks Bright Minds
[Verse 1]
There was a hand that I couldn't shake
A black silhouette of a slithering snake
It was never enough, enough is enough
Tryna keep the peace is like maintaining a buzz
[Verse 2]
There was a cloud that wouldn't break up
Blocking all the sunlight out and keeping it dark
I could never sit back, I could never relax
If you could cut the tension it would split in two halves
[Verse 3]
There was a calm that preceded the storm
I'm in the brace position and I'm raising alarms
It was never enough, enough is enough
I'm hanging in awareness when they're causing a fuss
[Verse 4]
There was a code that I couldn't break
It's getting more frustrating for me each passing day
I could never sit back, I could never relax
Imagine the elation when it's finally hacked
[Chorus]
Bright minds think alike
The fools smile and nod their heads
It's all pretence
[Verse 5]
There was a sum that was more than its parts
We should have stuck together but we've crumbled apart
It was never enough, enough is enough
I'm standing in a ship that's been abandoned and lost
I'll be the elephant who sits in the room
Blowing its own trumpet and I'm still in the mood
I can never sit back, I can never relax
I've got to keep my eyes before a soul attack
[Verse 1]
There was a hand that I couldn't shake
A black silhouette of a slithering snake
It was never enough, enough is enough
Tryna keep the peace is like maintaining a buzz
A dormant volcano blows
Shelter as it spews its load
[Chorus]
Bright minds think alike
The fools smile and nod their heads
It's all pretend
[Outro]
It's a buffer
