[Intro] Yeah Deep Orbit, homie Strange Horizons Out past your maps [Verse 1] Touch down, sand look lavender Sky drip sideways, gravity amateur Three suns shuffle like dice in a gambler’s hand Whole damn horizon do a figure-eight dance Palm trees made of spiral chrome Fruit float slow, never hit the stone Locals sip storms from a glass of dust Say, “Welcome, stranger, hope you’re one of us” They trade old dreams like baseball cards Hang their fears up, pin ’em in the yard Kids draw circles in a language that hums Every word taste sharp on the tip of my tongue I’m in Jordans, hoodie, chain on freeze They bow to the lizard with a crown of leaves He look at me like I’m some rare beast Says, “Walk our streets, see who’s really off-beat” [Chorus] Strange Horizons I’m the odd one, they decided Whole sky crooked, still they smilin’ Guess I’m the alien, guess I’m the alien Strange Horizons They move funny, I’m the quiet one Thought they crazy, I’m the wild one Guess I’m the alien, guess I’m the alien [Verse 2] Next stop, city built sideways on a ring Streets run vertical, buses got wings Clock run backward, days start at night Folks eat shadows when they need more light They don’t shake hands, they trade old scars Lay ’em on the table like playing cards Laugh when they cry, cry when they blessed Wear their worst secret stitched on their vest I’m tryna dap up, they just stare Like “Why you hide your history under all that hair?” Billboards speak in a chorus of smoke Even the stray dogs quote old jokes I pull my phone out, they flinch at the glow Say, “You brought a tiny star? You must run the show” But when I talk home, they tilt their head “You live one life only? That sound dead” [Chorus] Strange Horizons I’m the odd one, they decided Whole sky crooked, still they smilin’ Guess I’m the alien, guess I’m the alien Strange Horizons They move funny, I’m the quiet one Thought they crazy, I’m the wild one Guess I’m the alien, guess I’m the alien [Bridge] Every port, every gate, I’m the odd equation They built temples outta trash, I built walls from nations They swap bodies like jackets, take turns in a life I’m stuck in this skin, call that “right” They pray to a river that forgets your name I pray to a future that stays the same On a world where the oceans float in the sky They ask why I’m scared just to die one time [Verse 3] Saw a queen with four faces, one for each mood Talked in flavors, words tasted like food “Bite that sentence, tell me if it’s true” Honesty hit bitter, lies tasted blue Markets selling time in a jar, half-price Old folks buy minutes, kids buy ’em twice Aliens juggle planets in a parking lot Betting who flinch first when the core run hot I keep my cool, but my heart off beat Cus their “normal” make my “real” sound cheap They share thoughts public, open-air feed My secrets feel heavy like contraband seed They ask, “Why you cut your world into lines? Borders, colors, flags, hard divides?” I shrug, spit bars just to hide my doubt Realize I’m the weird one they talk about [Chorus] Strange Horizons I’m the odd one, they decided Whole sky crooked, still they smilin’ Guess I’m the alien, guess I’m the alien Strange Horizons They move funny, I’m the quiet one Thought they crazy, I’m the wild one Guess I’m the alien, guess I’m the alien
