W.A.G.M.I (Dead Ducks)

[Intro – dry, amused] Yeah… Relax. We’re fine. [Hook – catchy, sarcastic] We are all gonna make it That’s what they say Red candles, same promise Different day We are all gonna make it Smile through it Dead Ducks nod like “yeah…” Sure. We knew it. [Verse 1] They said “trust the process” I said “which one?” Lost count of the cycles Still somehow not done Bought the top, held the bottom Learned patience the hard way If pain builds character I got a doctorate by Thursday They disappear when it’s quiet Reappear when it’s green I been here arguing with charts Like they understand me They said “bro just zoom out” I zoomed out my soul Still here, still broke-ish Still oddly in control [Hook] We are all gonna make it That’s the line Say it slow, manifest it One more time We are all gonna make it Deadpan grin Dead Ducks don’t cheer loud We just check in. [Verse 2] I seen plans turn to threads Threads turn to dust I seen “long-term vision” Fold fast as trust They flex wins like trophies Ignore what it cost We just quietly stack scars Call that a loss? Nah. Call it tuition Call it the fee For learning who stays When it’s ugly to see If this is success It’s got bad timing But somehow we’re breathing So yeah—we climbing [Bridge – half-spoken] Look… If this was easy, Everyone would still be here. [Final Hook – bigger but ironic] We are all gonna make it Say it straight Dead Ducks still standing Despite the state We are all gonna make it Laugh a bit Not ‘cause it’s promised— ‘Cause we didn’t quit. [Outro – calm, satisfied] We’ll be alright. Probably.
