Lyrics

R.Y.K

I'm gonna meet ya'

I'm gonna teach ya'

Wisdom, Desire

Down to the wire

Built like a statue

Just to re-enact you

Do good to beat you

I'll bet I never beat you

I'm not gonna meet ya'

I'm not gonna teach ya'

Wisdom, Desire

Down to the wire

Built like a statue

Just to re-enact you

Do good to beat you

I'll bet I never beat you

I'm not gonna meet ya'

[Interlude]

I'm gonna meet ya'

I'm gonna teach ya'

Wisdom, Desire

Down to the wire

Built like a statue

Just to re-enact you

Do good to beat you

I'll bet I never beat you

I'm not gonna meet ya'

I'm not gonna teach ya'

Wisdom, Desire

Down to the wire

Built like a statue

Just to re-enact you

Do good to beat you

I'll bet you that I'll beat you

I'm not gonna meet ya'

[Interlude with unintelligible vocal samples]

[Outro]

GUM!

GUM!

GUM! GUM!

GU-GU-GU-GUM!
