[Verse 1] Found you drifting in the great unknown Tiny creature, all on your own I gave you food, mended your scars Now you’re closer than the farthest stars [Pre-Chorus] You're odd, I know, but you're my friend A secret bond that will never bend No need to talk, I see it clear In your eyes, there's no more fear [Chorus] That's my pet, a friendly pet My alien buddy, no need to fret Pet, pet, pet—can't forget the debt From a cosmic place, my strange duet [Verse 2] You grew so fast, now you're tall and grand Like born from sea—or who can know? But I remember when you were small And in my heart, you're still the same through it all [Pre-Chorus] Though you're big, and some might fear I see the soul that’s always near Just like humans, we all grow But our younger selves, they always show [Chorus] That's my pet, a friendly pet My alien buddy, no need to fret Pet, pet, pet—can't forget the debt From a cosmic place, my strange duet (strange duet) [rap] Pet, pet, pet It's no puppy or kitty It's a big, scary monster, lookin' gritty, not so pretty Fed with the finest, cosmic greens to thrive Superfoods made it grow faster, now it’s truly alive Not your average pet, it's cosmic grade, yeah, tailor-made Ain’t throwin' fits, just calm and wise with steady eyes You see a creature? I see a friend A big scary form, but kindness within to the end From other planets, this bond won’t bend It defends, and I know it’ll always extend Pet, pet, pet, Named it Mercy — But it never showed any. Steel tendrils twitch when it's hungry, Floats like silence but lands heavy — Kids run, teachers lock doors already. Cage made of carbon, eyes made like glass, Pulse in the walls, no bark, no hiss — just signal decay, It mimics your voice in a glitch-delay. Now the walls breathe when you walk past. A monster from space, a force to make you quake Eyes don’t blink, he reads the room, I— Don’t move, when he sweeps it like a broom, but he’s no brute More than might—he’s my pride, no need to hide Fierce yet loyal, through storms we bide, facing every tide Never dips, always down for the ride That stare says he's seen what's deep inside My cosmic beast, always by my side A guardian spirit, with strength sincere Strong as the stars but gentle and clear [last Chorus] That's my pet, a friendly pet My alien buddy, no need to fret Pet, pet, pet—can't forget the debt From a cosmic place, my strange duet (strange duet) That’s my pet, a loyal pet My cosmic buddy, no need to fret Pet, pet, pet—can’t forget the debt From a distant star, my best duet (you're my best duet) (strange duet) the best duet
