Yeah I'm slaying dragons one by one
Whether sword or a gun I'ma get the job done
Cause I'm on a mission, my own ambition
Remix to ignition, the final edition.
Hot and fresh out the Kitchen
Every man they be wishin'
That they wish they was me
Getting down on one knee.
Ask any girl to marry me and they say yes
I play my enemies like a game of chess.
When I rest, no stress, my destiny manifest
Living in a house but make tracks like I'm homeless
Narrating my own life like Morgan Freeman
One by one, killing all my demons.
No fucker's gonna get me, 'cause I'm always scheming
While they be screamin', I'll be California Dreaming.
Cause the dragons they chase you every time you run away
Run away from a problem, and leave it to the next day.
Or the next week or never at all
Keep at it my son cause you are heading for a fall
When the dragon arises gotta kill it there and then
Formulate a strategy, use your powers like the X-men.
Then you can go full mutant on their ass
Upgrade your status from victim to a badass
From Zero to Hero, save the princess in the tower
Kill the dragon, climb her hair, yeah you got the power.
You make it rain, but I will make it shower
I'm up all night making music till the early hour
Professional bad-ass, that is my super power
Getting drinks for half price, every hour is my happy hour.
I'm a legend loading, except I'm fully loaded
I'm overloaded yet I've already imploded
An experimental program except I'm fully coded
A nuclear bomb that's already exploded.

Cause I'm slaying dragons one by one
I’m winning every battle 'cause I've already won
And if you fuck up, it's back to day one
But all the time you done can never be undone.
Got a cannon on my arm like Megatron
I'm married to Seal like Heidi Klum
Got the bass from the speaker into my ear drum
I'm super intelligent but still fucking dumb.

'Cause I'm waiting for you, to tell me when you're ready
Just like Saved by the Bell, then we can go steady
'Cause I got a bass line like Nine Inch Nails
Then we can go for a drink, a meal and lots of cocktails.
I draw on every bit of music I've ever liked
Even take a little bit from the music I dislike
Even the music I dislike, good to know what sells
Take some music that I hate and make it rebel.
Into something that we can universally like
Almost heavenly and almost beast-like
I'll mate with the dragon and create a new hybrid
A whole new species that's not so blinded.
Not running away but no longer slaying
We can speak and they will know what we are saying
They can learn from us and we can learn from them
We can guard them when they're praying and we can be their guardsmen.
Imagine a world where we and dragons are one
Every battle with a dragon has already been won
But not with pre-planning or heads that need slamming
Just a mutual respect of time and space that would be spanning.
Forever and ever, now into the future
Like if Superman worked with Lex Luthor
The problems they'd solve, how humanity would evolve
Prejudices we would solve, every issue we'd resolve.
Just be like Khaleesi, wouldn't it be easy
Put our hand onto their noses and say so sorry that we
Have fought so long, but now we can be strong
Admit that we were wrong, we can sing from the same song.
Every time we had a problem, a dragon could solve it
We could help one out if it was stuck in a tar pit
Everyone of us pull the chains, attach them to the trains
Pull them out from the tar pit and no more hurricanes.
A dragon would fly in and spin the opposite direction
A relationship built on mutual protection
No more dragons to fear, but even then there'd be a new threat
But we'd fight it together like the allies and the soviets.
