I am not the sun
Warm as can be
Upon the earth it see,
On a very bright day
Shining on the bay.

I’m not the hero
But I’m also not the zero
I could be happy and chillin
Or I could also be your Villain.

I am not formal
Hell I’m not even normal
Don’t even understand my own pain
And I seem a little strange
