Dan Bull - Baptiste in Fire lyrics

Watch over me watch over me
Take a back seat, watch over me
Make way for Baptiste
Choose who you're going to be
Check the factsheet, watch over me
Bringing that heat
Show who you're going to be
Over fat beats, watch over me
So tap your feet
Choose who you're going to be
Make way for Baptiste, watch over me
Make way for Baptiste
Show who you're going to be watch over me
Watch over me

Let me describe how Baptiste
Baptised in fire, look
The vile omnic war deprived
Him of a childhood
An orphanage in Port-De-Paix's the place
The boy was raised
Saw all sorts of pain that shaped
Him at such an important age
He needed any out 'cause
That'd been so horrific
So he enlisted in the Caribbean coalition
Wishing to help, but no sisters and brothers
Trained as a medic
So could focus on assisting others
Being a hero's what he planned
To use his talent for
But unfortunately he fell into talon's claws
New opportunities open for
Every slamming door
Finally lived the glamorous life
He hadn't before
But every coin has two sides
You'll soon find
That you'll do to others what
Others have done to you, finally
The penny dropped and he was ready to stop
But dirty talons slash deep
And muddy the plot

Watch over me watch over me
Take a back seat, watch over me
Make way for Baptiste
Choose who you're going to be
Check the factsheet, watch over me
Bringing that heat
Show who you're going to be
Over fat beats, watch over me
So tap your feet
Choose who you're going to be
Make way for Baptiste, watch over me
Make way for Baptiste
Show who you're going to be watch over me
Watch over me

Always in all ways we ought
To be confronting history
So take a walk with me to
The waterfront at Monte Cristi
Ships in the night shimmer, shiver
Shores are misty he just disappeared
Right? Quite a haunting mistery
You might deduce drowning
But statistically speaking he gets his team
Back alive and who's counting?
Those doubts of his absence gradually healed
Kind of like he'd thrown
Down his immortality field
And you can feel he's
Real whenever anything hurts
Because he's ready to disperse
The regenerative burst
What a generous person
He had been a mercenary
But then he immersed in
Dealing medical courtesies ready to serve
Plus he's the sharpest marksman
Hitting the hardest target within
The heart of darkness
Ripping apart any pest whether
West or back east
I definitely suggest against testing Baptiste

Watch over me watch over me
Take a back seat, watch over me
Make way for Baptiste
Choose who you're going to be
Check the factsheet, watch over me
Bringing that heat
Show who you're going to be
Over fat beats, watch over me
So tap your feet
Choose who you're going to be
Make way for Baptiste, watch over me
Make way for Baptiste
Show who you're going to be
