Cryptid Lyrics
[Refrain]
Slow down, wanna bite your tongue
Turn it off, forget it
Clock out, brother, flick that thumb
That’s enough, I get it
[Verse 1]
I’m looking through frosted glass
Like footage through a trail cam’
[Chorus]
Delete it
I don’t look like that, that’s a cryptid
Or it’s just a deer in a trap
I’m livid
Dude, I’m not calling you back
Not my business, I’m not your business
[Verse 2]
Do I look funny? Do I scare ya?
Old man creeping on the party like a centipede
Ugh, the freak is in the mirror
Grow up, eat your veggies, go to therapy
Each to their own
But you’re reaching the limit
I’m not opposed to exposing a beggar
Give me your phone
I already know I’m in your history
Little d-d-dead hypocritе
Talk about a felony
[Chorus]
Deletе it (Delete it)
I don’t look like that, that’s a cryptid (That’s a cryptid)
Or it’s just a deer in a trap
I’m livid (I’m livid)
To see you fall on your ass
That’s the vision (That’s the vision)
Down with the sickness
[Refrain]
Slow down, wanna bite your tongue
Turn it off, forget it
Clock out, brother, flick that thumb
(Down with the sickness)
That’s enough, I get it
Slow down, wanna bite your tongue
Turn it off, forget it
Clock out, brother, flick that thumb
That’s enough, I get it
