[INTRO — SPOKEN / LOW] Yeah… You hear that? That ain’t no warning. That’s what happens when you keep something locked up too long. [BARKING] [VERSE 1] I been chained to the fence, now the fence got broke, Had a muzzle on my mouth, now I’m back for the throat. Everybody wanna test, everybody wanna poke, Till the quiet one snaps and the whole room knows. I don’t bark for attention, I bite when I’m provoked, I don’t talk about pressure, I apply that shit close. They were comfortable watching me stuck in a box, Now I’m kicking that door like, what’s gonna stop? No leash, no collar, no owner, no master, I came from the kennel, I’m chasing disaster. Too many nights I was pacing the floor, Now I’m turning that rage into something much more. I got scars from the hands that were feeding me lies, So I learned how to growl with a smile in my eyes. If you wanted me tame, should’ve treated me right— Now the cage is wide open… better run for your life. [HOOK] OFF THE LEASH! Ain’t nobody holding me back. OFF THE LEASH! Hear the growl when I’m coming through that. OFF THE LEASH! I was chained, now I’m breaking the lock. You can hear me from a mile away— I’M OFF THE LEASH! [BARKING / BEAT DROP] [VERSE 2 — FASTER] I’m a problem when the pressure gets heavy, Already been through hell, so my temper stay ready. They can talk from a distance, I don’t hear ’em too clearly, Got the whole damn pack going wild when they fear me. I was patient, I waited, I stayed in the basement, Now I’m breaking containment, erasing the pavement. No hesitation, I’m changing the placement, Of anybody thinking that I’m easy to play with. I don’t need validation, I came for the vibration, Bass shaking walls while I’m tearing through the station. This ain’t aggression— this is years of frustration Finally finding an outlet and becoming creation. They wanted the old me? That motherfucker’s dead. They wanted me quiet? Should’ve listened instead. You keep kicking the cage, eventually it gets fed— Now I’m loose in the streets with a price on my head. [HOOK] OFF THE LEASH! Ain’t nobody holding me back. OFF THE LEASH! Hear the growl when I’m coming through that. OFF THE LEASH! I was chained, now I’m breaking the lock. You can hear me from a mile away— I’M OFF THE LEASH! [OUTRO — BARKING / SPOKEN] You wanted the beast? You got it. Don’t come looking for the leash… I burned that motherfucker. [BARKING]
