Lyrics

Prototype

So quick with it (ay, ay), so slick with it (ay)
You won't hear me coming 'til that tick-tick-tick-tick, boom, hit with it (uh-huh)
Make a man sit with it (uh)
Make a man cry, said he got something in his eye (uh, huh)
Baby-by-, pro- I-

I could take Goliath down with one stone (baby)
I could make a king step down from his throne (ba-)
When you said I wouldn't get that far on my own
Baby-by-, pro- I-
Baby-by-, pro- I-

I'm a limited edition
Baby, I'm the prototype
I'm just on a different rhythm
Baby, I'm the prototype
Touch me, but you can't yet
Try to match me, but you can't yet (you can't yet)

I'm a limited edition
Baby, I'm the prototype
I'm just on a different rhythm
Baby, I'm the prototype
Touch me, but you can't yet
Try to match me, but you can't yet (you can't yet)
I'm the prototype, I'm, I'm the prototype
Baby, I'm the prototype, I'm a limited edition

I'm once in a generation
So unreal, they think I'm animation
CGI, alien-type innovation
AI couldn't replicate this sensation
Baby-by-, pro- I-

I could take Goliath down with one stone (baby)
I could make a king step down from his throne (ba-)
When you said I wouldn't get that far on my own
Baby-by-, pro- I-
Baby-by-, pro- I-

I'm a limited edition
Baby, I'm the prototype
I'm just on a different rhythm
Baby, I'm the prototype
Touch me, but you can't yet
Try to match me, but you can't yet (you can't yet)

I'm a limited edition
Baby, I'm the prototype
I'm just on a different rhythm
Baby, I'm the prototype
Touch me, but you can't yet
Try to match me, but you can't yet (pro-, I-)

I'm the prototype (mm)
I'm, I'm the prototype (mm)
Baby, I'm the prototype (mm)
I'm a limited edition (mm)
I'm the prototype (mm)
I'm, I'm the prototype (mm)
Baby, I'm the prototype (mm)
I'm a limited edition (mm)

Oh-oh, mm, uh-huh-huh, uh
Uh, uh-huh-huh, oh, uh-huh
Uh, uh-huh
