The Apex Predator

Back to writing lyrics and singing (and speaking also, I guess). This song doesn't have any guitars or other stringed instruments or really any instruments that I played at all. I created it by building chords in G minor on a piano roll in Studio One and then creating melodies and a bass line from the notes in the chords. Then I did some other stuff. Hope y'all enjoy it. The fish are a metaphor, I think.

It's the age old story of the rabbit and hound.
Will the old dog rest and lose this round?
If a shark stops swimming will it sink and drown?
Will all the little fishies celebrate?
The apex predator stalks its prey.
The apex predator stops to pray.
The apex predator's prey gets away.
She's not the apex predator today.
It's the age old story of boy meets girl.
Will she give up and chase a squirrel?
There are billions of fish in our little world.
Not every fish is going to get away.
The apex predator stalks its prey.
The apex predator stops to pray.
The apex predator's prey gets away.
She's not the apex predator today.
[spoken]
The otherwise unimpressive Homo Sapiens is one of the deadliest creatures on all land or sea.
Its opposable thumbs and advanced frontal and left parietal and temporal cortexes make the beast a true force of nature.
