🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • I'm on the hunt I'm after you
  • Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd
  • And I'm hungry like the wolf
  • Straddle the line in discord and rhyme

Echo the hook

  • Mouth is alive, all running inside
  • And I'm hungry like the wolf
  • Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
