[Ok, there’s no way out, there’s gotta be a way out!] [Look, here’s something! “Es-cop-ay.” I wonder what that means? It’s funny, it’s spelled just like the word “escape.”] escape route hiding from the great unknown cause I am an actor and life’s a show don’t hate you but when the scene’s unscripted all your good, can you please restrict it? get straight through all I want is the end like being average is the trend create truth it’s easy to fail the test when you are so afraid of success complete the trial to the very end and you know it’s final, can’t be done again but I know I’ll lose it on the final test I’ll never prove myself on this quest what’s the point of even going through this open door I’ve been appointed to I’ll only fail and fail again hey look, the trail opens up ahead so now I’ve got something to decide try it, or throw away my life I don’t think I can handle the strife but the other way, well, it cuts like a knife through butter in my imagination guess I really should be patient until my confidence comes around and I really can’t let my family down I gather my strength and push on through it I hope I make it, I hope I do it but then I trip and stumble and fall *sigh* I knew I couldn’t do it at all you can try your best to encourage but it only serves to discourage I won’t throw myself in the bottomless pit but now you plainly see where we sit self-defeat is the name of the game cause it’s not so neat to fell ashamed cause there’s always the chance that I could fail so I’d just rather not set sail I’ll push it aside and get on with my days I’ve got too much pride so I’ll just stay the same and you know what’ll happen? Ill just forget and do it all again the next chance I get don’t know what I mean by “escape route”? well, give me a minute and I’ll show you gotta prepare, make sure I’m ready endless reparations for when I’m unsteady huh? what? I guess I can go now um, but, I really can’t show how great I am if you don’t give me time how spaced I am if you don’t give me mine think about driving your car in traffic think about how far there is havoc defensive driving 101, now always looking for the way out disaster’s right around the corner I’m passionate as a hoarder of all these moments that could go wrong count em all up, they’d be a googol strong anxiety runs high in this town you never know when it’ll come around if there’s chance I won’t succeed that’s when it will come and get me I can’t do it, see, I cannot be the man that you really need from me maybe something will cut through the noise maybe I should go play with my toys what? no, don’t call me a boy now let’s pretend it’s the fall of Troy if I try harder, it might happen sudden clarity, instead of trapped in a box I built myself, now strapped in safe and secure, try to free me - I’ll zap him if I press on every day then maybe I will find a way and if you think you know then say how to make this thing go away I need to find some clarity but everywhere I look, I see chaos, confusion, and deceit who is there who can help me? need to find my confidence my faith in God never made sense because everywhere that I went I let others invent me but now I have to find time each day to put my foot down and I’ll say that I will stop being afraid of my mistakes I’m unashamed [Let’s go!] [Ah!] [Here’s Brucey!]

ladyWildfire: (Ohh, yeah!) [Verse 1] KingTiger: Yeah, yeah, this place is here because of you, and he's going through He's gotta get through, you know the deal You got your due, he's gonna get through Get yourself ready for life That's the deal, so here we go Yo! We outta here! I said, we outta here! This place is here, and he's going through You know the deal, he's gonna get through (Ohh, yeah!) [Chorus] ladyWildfire: You can't do anything, so don't even try Get some help So do your Sonic best Don't even try Sonic, dead or alive, is mine (Ohh, yeah!) [Verse 2] KingTiger: Time distortion, you got your portion Think you got it made, but you're just forcin' things to go through the the motions Here he comes, 'cross the ocean to stop you. He's doin' his part You wanna give life a mechanical heart He's gonna tear your plans apart You had it lost from the start Use your machines to try and stop him It don't matter you double cross him with sawblades or put him in your crosshairs Blowin' it all, and you haven't lost him yet. Your prize creation Your metal blue blur to rule the nations He wrecked it, no hesitation You'll lose when you try to race him [Chorus] ladyWildfire: You can't do a thing, so don't even try Get help Do your Sonic best Don't even... Sonic, dead or alive, is mine [Verse 3] KingTiger: You've set up your last defense He'll break it down at every chance He'll do it, you know, with time & rings So you gotta go with your robots and things One more time he'll break through walls One more time he'll bust your balls Run, swim, warp, or even crawl He'll make sure you take the fall [Chorus] ladyWildfire: You can't do anything, so don't even try Get some help (You know the deal He's gonna get through) So do your Sonic best Don't even try Sonic, dead or alive, is mine Ohh, yeah!

KingTiger: Adventure of a Lifetime, was so sweet but your Lifetime Adventure ain't complete all those little moments from day to day don't ever let them slip away it's what's in front of you right now that's real even though it's over and you may feel empty inside, won't you stay? "big picture" is how you were made each moment brings a brand new challenge and the only question is, will you allow it to bring you the thrill that you always wanted or will you run away on an endless hunt for it? you can search the galaxy for life but please, just open your eyes it's right in front of you, this whole time the grass isn't greener, no matter how you try ladyWildfire: the only thing for certain is death and taxes that along with a few natural disasters like a tornado or a wave that crashes into your dreams, and then they shatter million pieces, million ways in a split second your life can change something as simple as a word said in haste can bring about a great deal of pain but don't let it all keep you down take that pain and turn it around give it all to the ones you love and no matter what, don't give up keep your feet firm on the ground but don't be afraid to dream in the clouds ignore all the lies and all that stuff let your Lifetime Adventure take you above Sterling: take a dive deep in the ocean or keep your feet always in motion you just can't run, and you sure can't hide from the pain that'll come inside it may not be a big commotion it may just be the tiniest quotient of your life that'll break your stride and you'll find yourself on a different ride "Clearly not what you wanted?" get it in your head to just accept it you'll find yourself with new affections and your heart's gonna turn resurrected I think you will soon see clear Adventure of a Lifetime; that what you're after! So we'll take you, on a Lifetime Adventure That's who we are, the Robot Master Royalty!

Galaxy Man in the house with the Robot Master Royalty bringing it real smooth I'm baaaack hey! weren't expecting this were ya?? put on your dancin shoes! CHORUS so battles come and battles go this one I'll remember how'd we make it this far, don't know I sure hope I don't lose my nerve now all these things have come to pass and they won't fall in line I know I'll be the one to last I just hope I don't lose my mind VERSE listen to me now, it's you know who beats so phat, you can't use a spoon serve it up right, keepin it smooth with a brand new taste for you to chew bringin back the groove for round number 2 never thought the end would come so soon when this started, I never knew about how much I didn't have a clue left the house for a newfound freedom fightin with the mouse from the magic kingdom all the different planets, I got to see them now I'm back where I came from tell you bout them all as we go along a diff'rent story with each part of this song but before all that, let's hit pause to catch my breath - this level is long... CHORUS so battles come and battles go this one I'll remember how'd we make it this far, don't know I sure hope I don't lose my nerve now all these things have come to pass and they won't fall in line I know I'll be the one to last I just hope I don't lose my mind VERSE "when you wish upon a star" no one's nose could stretch that far for all the lies they're putting forth all it's about is Wily's forts a business deal too good to ignore but man, it hurts, and what a chore! it's fine fightin villains, that's what they're for but 101 dalmations is all-out war! first we got the candle for fireballs then we were climbing Moliarty's walls most of our time was in the duck universe never thought I'd have to fight Duckworth! in the end, victory was won they lost Pochohantas and Mulan don't think anybody's really gone be a DVD sequel before too long BRIDGE so right now, we're near the home stretch a bit more to go, can't give up yet 99 reasons to make me fret but ain't a single one gonna make me sweat ...it's cause I'm a robot... get it? lot of shots fired and I ain't through yet it'll go down an historical event cause when we've won, it'll be "item get!" VERSE now we're at story part 2, 2nd half wound up fightin' in a cosmic death match but even then, it couldn't last no way Wily's plans'd come to pass Mercury first, with all his mood swings Venus next, who really brought the heat then our own Earth, which was so bittersweet next was Mars with his blushing red cheeks Uranus and Neptune had cold things to say Saturn's rings just got in my way the Sun and Jupiter were full of hot air and Pluto's not a planet anymore - don't go there now I've always loved outer space so I never thought I'd get such planetary hate each and every one came to put me in my place woulda been the big bang if not for my mates CHORUS so battles come and battles go this one I'll remember how'd we make it this far, don't know I sure hope I don't lose my nerve now all these things have come to pass and they won't fall in line I know I'll be the one to last I just hope I don't lose my mind that's my story what, you want to you know about the name? if you've heard my stuff from last year you might know see ya!

people stay and people go in distant lands you and I may be come what may I hope you know that you will never be a foreigner to me you'll never be a foreigner to me the time was served and lessons learned i thought i'd earned a new reprieve what i wanted became so haunted take it granted for life unseen every action has reaction and life in traction cannot stay despite my efforts still there comes hurt when one's life-worth takes them away time seems to always have its way I've found life needs to always change the pace somehow I have to lose what I have found every time but I cannot hold you down, no, I won't try people stay and people go in distant lands you and I may be come what may I hope you know that you will never be a foreigner to me if in time you do return I won't forget what you mean to me a friend of mine you can be sure you know you'll never be a foreigner to me you'll never be a foreigner to me the life within starts to breath in it heals again gets past the scars from the start with breaking hearts it is quite hard always so far time seems to always have its way I've found life needs to always change the pace somehow I have to lose what I have found every time but I cannot hold you down, no, I won't try people stay and people go in distant lands you and I may be come what may I hope you know that you will never be a foreigner to me if in time you do return I won't forget what you mean to me a friend of mine you can be sure you know you'll never be a foreigner to me it's not so different all those times as a child waiting for the very end though I know it takes a while I want to be whole so I just lose control as we all let go we learn about what lasts sometimes we take it slow and sometimes we take it fast I want to be whole so I just lose control

*chorus* So many things of which I'm afraid (woke up in a sweat from a bad dream) (and I don't know why, but it sure does seem) which is why I wish I had stayed (there's all these people just staring at me) ('cause they don't like how I choose to be) back where I was, even though I was made (and now, it all just sends me reeling) (even though I know it's just a feeling) for a higher calling 'cause I don't like pain (I can't shake it, 'cause I'm no good at dealing) (with what all these people could be thinking) *verse* the pain of never living up to other's expectations the pain of never getting to have life's celebrations for making it big, or doing it right and living what others call the good, good life how could you even want to believe those things? how could you even want to be so strange? if that has a familiar ring, you know what I mean cause approval means attaching so many strings *b verse* don't give up, don't give in and leave the great place that you're in I don't care if you think you're called who do you think you are? the Apostle Paul? *verse* getting the approval of the ones who raised you or seeking smiles from someone you crave to please because of what they do that's what matters, even though times are few the times that you waited patiently patiently for the world to see just how good that you can be at earning points for excellency *chorus* So many things of which I'm afraid (woke up in a sweat from a bad dream) (and I don't know why, but it sure does seem) which is why I wish I had stayed (there's all these people just staring at me) (because they don't like how I choose to be) back where I was, even though I was made (and now, it all just sends me reeling) (even though I know it's just a feeling) for a higher calling 'cause I don't like pain (I can't shake it, 'cause I'm no good at dealing) (with what all these people could be thinking) *verse* the pain of always knowing, that the way you're going cannot reap what everybody else is sowing if you get success, or gold stars overflowing, then your friends and family will just be a-glowing don't you want mainstream approval? don't you want negativity removal? what's weighing you down is this crazy lie that God's got something special for your life *b verse* I know you say that God will provide but it's always good to have a plan on your side doing that ministry is reward-less and chock full of riskiness *verse* why can't you just be normal, and live like everyone else, just right in the light I mean, the light that we are used to not the one with this spiritual voodoo what are we afraid of? this crazy love a spiritual walk with its gifts, because we can't handle something that new even if, Lord Jesus, it comes from You *bridge* just go to college, get your bachelor's or better yet, get your masters you gotta be prepared to do quite a bit to be successful in whatever you can get be a good steward and work extra hard and when you are older, you'll be glad in your heart that you followed the wisdom of money and career instead of the risky call of your Mighty Good Leader *chorus* So many things of which I'm afraid (woke up in a sweat from a bad dream) (and I don't know why, but it sure does seem) which is why I wish I had stayed (there's all these people just staring at me) (because they don't like how I choose to be) back where I was, even though I was made (and now, it all just sends me reeling) (even though I know it's just a feeling) for a higher calling 'cause I don't like pain (I can't shake it, 'cause I'm no good at dealing) (with what all these people could be thinking) *outro* now I'm not saying don't take care of your family I'm just saying there's greater things you gotta see don't give up your calling, or the dream you've been given 'cause that's always the way that you should be livin'

*chorus* I'm sorry that I won't be your puppet I'm sorry that I will not drop what I was doin' just because you thought up something different 'cause it's not what you want I'm sorry that I won't be your puppet I'm sorry that I will not drop what I was called to all because you think way too highly of what you say you see *verse* LOST the battle that I tried to win 'cause here we are, on the same ride again you don't see, you're always trippin' you don't get that I think different the world is upside down and spinnin' around and when I say that I was lost and now I am found you seem to think that all I'm makin' is just noisy sound but I won't let you when you keep on trying to bring me down *b verse* I was lost but now I'm found and no one could ever take that away from me I was blind but now I see you so clearly *verse* LOST to the Oh Say Can You See a classic case of the American Dream How do you expect me to take you seriously when all you say to me is "retire early"? just give some more love to your family I know it's not black & white like A, B, C, or D it's not multiple choice, but if it were me I'd give a little more than what right now I see and what's this about always hatin' on the poor? "they must've sinned with their money" what do you take me for?! I s'pose they always coulda done just a little more but ain't you ever been in that same place before? obviously, you ain't in the same place financially, but apparently, you don't know how to just live gratefully take what you got and just start livin' and stop tryin' to get more and hide this all greed and *chorus* I'm sorry that I won't be your puppet I'm sorry that I will not drop what I was doin' just because you thought up something different 'cause it's not what you want I'm sorry that I won't be your puppet I'm sorry that I will not drop what I was called to all because you think way too highly of when you speak to me *b verse* Why are you following the world and all of its cultural pretensions? you have a higher calling so what's your intention? *breakdown* aren't we all just puppets aren't we all just puppets without Christ we're all just lost little puppets so hey mister puppeteer why don't you get outta here? and get *verse* LOST it is for my wife's wishes 'cause it's her wish to not hear me rappin' I guess I just like to do what I'm not supposed to or maybe it's just not what people are used to hey there, I sure am pleased to meet you, but I'm not here to please you and if you don't like that, then please just appease me and don't bring it up every time that you see me *b verse* I follow the Truth even if you cannot see it thank You Lord for taking these chains and setting me free *chorus* I'm sorry that I won't be your puppet I'm sorry that I will not drop what I was doin' just because you thought up something different 'cause it's not what you want I'm sorry that I won't be your puppet I'm sorry that I will not drop what I was called to all because you think way too highly of what you say to me *verse* LOST in the amount of truth I spit? or maybe there's too much funk in this? well take a look, I'm living proof of this that people are led in different directions
