Tiny tin robots make my heart glow
Tiny tin robots make the days slow
Tiny tin robots wind the keys up
Tiny tin robots sometimes they freeze up
Left back to the days of nostalgia
Simple thoughts, no what ifs or how bout the's
cookie cutter life two parents alright
split when I was 8 like atoms sliced
to create the a-bomb house of fiction
visions of 8-bits dance and conviction
Electric synth and a few cosmic twists
led me to chiptunes and rapping a bit
And now, I'm almost 23
no direction for my life or anything
I just sit back and let the chip notes sing
Drink a cup of coffee and let hope bring
a few pretty words in a notebook shut
closed from peeping eyes until I let up
to share the thoughts of a certified nut
I'm not so hardcore, I'm just hard up
Tiny tin robots make my heart glow
Tiny tin robots make the days slow
Tiny tin robots wind the keys up
Tiny tin robots sometimes they freeze up
Look through eyes of the delirious stranger than mysterious
combat mode when I'm in a cafeteria
crowds freak me out
unless I'm on the mic I'm looking down
So I'll drift into the scifi world
tin robots and dr3ams unfurled
I'm sure I have a mental issue
but please no tissues, I've always limped through
and this'll be no different sans the picket fence
that kept out the world when I grew a thicker skin
Now I make this music and write a few bars
in regards to its future I can't see far
pretty sure I've hit a brick wall
but I've picked myself up out of bigger pit falls
and I'll keep on doing it, as a means to say
That today, world, I'll be okay
Tiny tin robots make my heart glow
Tiny tin robots make the days slow
Tiny tin robots wind the keys up
Tiny tin robots sometimes they freeze up
