Lyrics:
This is so pretentious, this is so pretentious
Love me as a stranger for my lyrics, for my message
Can you hear it? You should listen
Boy I swear this shit is different
Play it so damn cool, you’d swear my lungs was air conditioned
Gosh, so anti-authority, I lead the rebels, I am the authority
Guess it’s a paradox, sell you a dream, and it’s how I succeed in a failing economy
I get ahead like I’m givin lobotomies
Heterosexual, money, misogyny
Give you them bars, but this ain’t no law degree
Just so I fit in, now ain’t that some irony
It makes me feel so alive
To bleed you out from my eyes
We broke bread and drank wine
I pledged my soul to your tribe
And now
I fear your god isn’t mine
Is this arrest such a crime?
They murdered children with lies
Oh no, we’ve been dead all our lives
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaah yeaaah
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaah yeaaah
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaah yeaaah
But will you be left there? Will you be left there?
Chorus:
We are lost, but no one is searching
We are lost, but is that the worst thing? No
We are lost, there’s no one to save ourselves from ourselves
From ourselves, from ourselves
(Musical Interlude)
Chorus
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaah yeaaah
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaah yeaaah
Yeah yeah yeah yeaaah yeaaah
But will you be left there? Will you be left there?
This is so pretentious, this is so pretentious
Is if fear of god? Not the one that’s up in heaven
Turn the darkness into light, fear the night throughout the day
Blinded by the vision of my faith, faith
So what do I say? How do I get you to listen to me?
Mention my love for the bitches and weed? Talk about money that you’ll never see?
Luxury dinners that you’ll never eat? Fucking these women that you’ll never meet?
Just so I sell out these stadium seats? Guess I’m a sellout, you need a receipt?
Mmm, I look at my mother, huh, I look at my father, huh
Imagine that accident hadn’t have happened, they put on a condom, huh
I wouldn’t be here, would it be relevant if I had never been ever alive
Just for the hell of it, tell me the truth, you wouldn’t give a fuck, you would be celibate
Hardheaded to get where I’m headed, I’m telekinetic, I’m moving this industry just with a thought
Penny for that but I’m upping the cost
Gimme that interest, can barely take care of expenses
No reason my wallet is centsless, look at my college credentials
You see you see you see, I’m feelin the fear…
