ISIS

I don't drink the soda, thank you, obrigada
Like Dora the Explorer, you can meet me at the border
If you bad, we badder, if you mad, we madder
Bringin' the, bringin' the, bringin' the, bringin' the, bringin' the heat further
I don't drink the soda, thank you, obrigada
Like Dora the Explorer, you can meet me at the border
If you bad, we badder, if you mad, we madder
Bringin' the, bringin' the, bringin' the, bringin' the, bringin' the heat further
Go and get me my loader, you better move over
Competition we made it 'cause we're bringin' it to you further
Go and get me my loader, you better move over
Competition we made it 'cause we're bringin' it to you further
Bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it further
Bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it you further
Bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it
Bringin' it, bringin' it
bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it, bringin' it to you further
I got a little song
There's problems in the West, there's problems in the East, but
Will they ever stop fighting?
They'll say we are the best, high above the rest, but
Who gets [?]? Yeah
Don't wanna ask who is the mask
But can't let these issues just pass me
Don't want to cast doubt on the past but
These stories got me all laughing, 'cause
These modern times with all different kinds
Feel like "Are you ISIS, or Pisces?" Yeah
Men in the trucks say they give a fuck
But end of the day it's about prices
[?]
Split in the middle, [?], peng girl-pose
Split in the middle, [?], peng girl-pose
Split in the middle, [?], peng girl-pose
Split in the middle, [?], peng girl-pose
[?]
The ting goes skrrrahh (ah)
Shot, shot, shot, shot
Drop, drop, drop, drop
Knock, knock, knock, knock
Fly pirates, we can't stop
Shot, shot, shot, shot (load 'em)
Drop, drop, drop, drop (Lord have mercy)
Knock, knock, knock, knock
Fly pirates, we can't stop
Knock, knock, here's that bomb
Champion girl, I'll show you where I'm from
Knock, knock, we stay strong
Show me something I can't stunt on
A-le-le-le-le-le up in here
Step it up, blow up in here
When you get high with no Visa
Everybody know it's M.I.A.
A-le-le-le-le-le up in here
Step it up, blow up in here
When you get high with no Visa
Everybody know is, we don't care
Shot, shot, shot, shot (load 'em)
Drop, drop, drop, drop (Lord have mercy)
Knock, knock, knock, knock (fuck 'em)
Fly pirates we can't stop
Shot, shot, shot, shot (yeah, load 'em)
Drop, drop, drop, drop (Lord have mercy)
Knock, knock, knock, knock (load it)
Fly pirates we can't stop
Everybody in the place lit
Throw your lighters in the air
Everybody in the place lit
Throw your lighters in the air
A-le-le-le-le-le up in here
Throw your lighters in the air
A-le-le-le-le-le up in here
Throw your lighters in the air
Can we blow up in here?
