Track Title: “Mouse in the House”
Genre: Spoken Word / Rap
Tempo: ~96 BPM
Length: ~3:34
Mood: Chaotic, cinematic, darkly humorous, spiritually reflective
Hook (0:00–0:30)
Mouse in the house, no fairy tale
Snout in the dark, breath go stale
Cap on crooked, Mets on the brim
Came for the cheese, now he’s comin’ for him
️ Verse 1 (0:30–1:15)
Woke up broke in a dream trap cell
No signal, no dish, no show to tell
Rat in the kitchen with a baseball bat
Growlin’ like thunder, eyes pitch black
I ain’t start nothin’, just saw the cheese
Spit in his face, now he’s off the leash
Tryna chew toes while I’m sound asleep
Carnival monster, soul too deep x3
Why you trying to get on my toes like that!
My friend ol buddy ol friend ol pal, ol buddy ol friend ol pal
But I know you love me—but why you trying to chew me down!
Chorus (1:15–1:45)
This ain’t no Disney, this ain’t no game
This rodent got rage and he’s callin’ my name
I run through the madness, I trip through the shame
But I rise with the Spirit, I’m not stayin’ the same
Mouse in the house, and he’s breakin’ the rules
But I’m breakin’ the curse, I’m not playin’ the fool
I roll through the punches, I roll with the pain
And I whisper to heaven through the windowpane
That is Jesus Christ, getting me to the one I need to go to
That is God in and through his sacrifice (resurrection too)
️ Verse 2 (1:45–2:30)
Left, right, backwards—where do I go?
Satellite static, no TV glow
Rat on my heels, breath in my throat
I spit for the cheese, now I’m stuck in the smoke
He got a cap, got a bat, got a vendetta
I got a prayer, got a past, got a scar letter
I ain’t the hero, I ain’t the saint
But I’m still standin’ in the flood and faint
Bridge (2:30–3:00)
No doc, no check, just faith and regret
But I’m okay, I’m still here, still breathin’
Still dreamin’, still fightin’, still believin’
Those are the most things you can't really give up on
Because you'll die, son.
So when you go put in motivation in getting something done
I believe you are able to get it done.
Final Chorus (3:00–3:34)
Mouse in the house, and he’s breakin’ the rules
But I’m breakin’ the curse, I’m not playin’ the fool
I roll with the punches, I roll with the pain
And I whisper to heaven through the windowpane
So if I fall, let me fall with grace
Let the rat run wild, I won’t chase the race
I’ll rise in the silence, I’ll rise in the flame
And I’ll leave this house with a brand new name
