[Intro]
Woof! Woof!
Woof! Woof!
I said woof! woof!
THAT’S THE DOG IN ME!
[Verse 1]
I might seem calm, I might seem cool
Head down low, playin’ by the rules
Humble heart, steady hands
Keep it locked till the pressure lands
But when that switch flips in my brain
That beast wakes up and breaks the chain
Let it loose, let it breathe
Ain’t no stoppin’ what’s underneath
Let it bark, let it run
Let it tear through everyone
When that side comes crawlin’ free
That’s the animal inside of me
[Pre-Chorus]
Teeth out, bloodshot eyes
Can’t tame what’s built to rise
[Chorus]
I got that dog in me!
Runnin’ wild and breakin’ free!
Go crazy, tear it up, and I guarantee
When it jumps out, man, I need a referee!
Hold me down, grip that leash
Chain me up or I’ll break release
Throw that muzzle over me
But you can’t kill that dog in me!
[Verse 2]
Quiet all day, cool and tame
But at night, man, I ain’t the same
Something snaps, something cracks
And there ain’t no pullin’ me back
Woof woof, bark bark
Lights go out, it gets dark
Mind gone blank, eyes gone red
Pure instinct inside my head
If there’s a dog in you, then you know this game
When it wakes up, nothing stays the same
Big dog bite, no time to flee
Better watch out when you run with me
[Breakdown]
Woof! Woof! — It’s crawlin’ out
Bark! Bark! — Ain’t no doubt
Heart beats fast, can’t calm it down
One bad move, I shake the ground
Pet my head? Better think twice
This dog bites, don’t play nice
Spray that water, pull that chain
Still won’t stop what’s in my veins
[Chorus]
I got that dog in me!
Runnin’ wild and breakin’ free!
Go crazy, tear it up, and I guarantee
When it jumps out, man, I need a referee!
Hold me down, grip that leash
Chain me up or I’ll break release
Throw that muzzle over me
But you can’t kill that dog in me!
[Bridge]
Snarlin’ loud, jaws locked tight
This beast don’t sleep at night
Built to fight, built to bleed
That’s just the nature inside me
[Final Chorus]
I got that dog in me!
No control when it sets me free!
Break walls, raise hell, let the whole world see
Ain’t no stoppin’ what was born in me!
Woof! Woof! Hear that sound?
That beast inside ain’t backin’ down
That’s no act, that’s no dream
That’s just the dog in me!
