[Verse]
Woke up feeling like a hurricane blast
Thought I'd outrun it but itās way too fast
My brainās a disco with the lights on crack
Sometimes it be like that
[Chorus]
Iām a rocket ship zooming through the night
Burning too bright till Iām out of sight
No map no brakes no looking back
Sometimes it be like that
[Verse 2]
Bought ten pizzas just to feed the air
Danced with my shadow like I didnāt care
Lifeās a rollercoaster off the track
Sometimes it be like that
[Chorus]
Iām a rocket ship zooming through the night
Burning too bright till Iām out of sight
No map no brakes no looking back
Sometimes it be like that
[Bridge]
Talking to the moon like itās my best friend
Telling secrets only I could comprehend
Time's a trampoline I keep losing my tact
Sometimes it be like that
[Chorus]
Iām a rocket ship zooming through the night
Burning too bright till Iām out of sight
No map no brakes no looking back
Sometimes it be like that being Manic!

Why Black History Matters in America?
The United States of America is celebrating their 250th anniversary in 2026. I'm proud to be an American and as someone who was born here, I wouldn't imagine myself living anywhere else. This is a country where opportunities are possible. Where anyone can be successful in anything they desire to do. Equality, community, and togetherness are the backbones of what America is and should be about. However, we have an administration who wants to erase and disregard those who have made positive, meaningful impacts in our country, specifically Black figures, such as Martin Luther King, Jr., Rosa Parks, and Maya Angelou. President Trump and his administration have been constantly complaining and fighting against what they call the "Woke agenda". They use this excuse as a distraction from other issues they refuse to address, such as the high cost of living, climate change, and inflation. That equality is dividing America, when in reality, it's bringing us together. Being woke is not tied to a specific political party. No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, you can still care about other people and their plights. Compassion and empathy for others isn't tied to a political party, either. We were taught as children to treat others the way we want to be treated and not judge others because they're different from us. Caring about others isn't a personal attack on your beliefs. It doesn't make you any less of a person. People who are easily offended over African American figures, past or present, or anything related to it, are grasping at straws. Current and future generations need to know who people like Harriet Tubman and Shirley Chisholm were, especially in the classroom. Black History is part of American History. It should be recognized, not hidden or forgotten. Besides, you can't shield children from everything, just because your feelings are easily hurt.

This hits hard feels like the perfect anthem for the chaos and thrill of manic highs.
