Burnt Pride

The Album专辑

  • 作词 : Daumont, Shimura
    Burnt Pride is a crazy thing
    But now, what does it take to make you feel me concrete?
    I ain't your maitre'd, I ain't on pain relief
    This ain't make believe, I ain't on no ankle leash
    I tried speaking in a rational manner
    Tried to get my point across using regular me(ans)
    I even patterned my delivery
    Similarly after something you had said
    So that you would not interpret me differently, but
    My head's on a tree swing
    Your debt's still lingering
    While you erect gates with codes really nobody knows
    I ask, "Why's it always closed?"
    I'm told it's my approach
    Well let's suppose
    Just for the sole sake of argument that
    Despite the spite and all the ill will you're harboring
    That me, Lyrics Born, all this power that I'm harnessing
    That I didn't come in here to no conquering
    That I came in here to do a little bargaining
    Grease key people do some apple polishing
    Maybe hail a cab for my local congressman
    So he can hook me with the landlord in parliament
    Then I'll set up a booth, hand-pick my operatives
    Train 'em up, send my squad of garbagemen
    To spread the good will, all in the environment
    And all the false doctrine and all the carcinogens, but now
    I gotta be wise 'bout who I'm targeting
    The key is make the young folks offerings
    So that they don't become adults that are demonstrative
    Or else my chances of retirement go spiraling
    So then I work my way into their subconsciousness
    I tell them always use caution, now, cautiousness, because
    Are you absolutely positive that you can make it without us and be prosperous?
    You need to look at me and my accomplishments
    Hey, I got an idea, let's start a partnership!
    It'll be just like livin' in a Harlequin
    And we'll feed our pond fishies ostriches
    We'll feed the starved kiddies self-doubt lozenges
    Just peeling layer after layer off their confidence
    Until it's one planet us homogenous
    Versus one gumball you optimists!!
    Burn pride!! Burn pride!!
    Burn pride!! Burn Pride!!
    Burnt Pride is a crazy thing
    What does it take to make you feel me concrete?
    I ain't your maitre'd, I ain't on pain relief
    This ain't make believe, I ain't on no ankle leash
    I tried speaking in a rational manner
    Tried to get my point across using conventional means
    I even patterned my delivery similarly after something you had said
    So that you would not interpret me differently, but-
    My head's on a tree swing
    Your debt's still lingering
    While you erect gates with codes really nobody knows
    I ask, "Why's it always closed?"
    I'm told it's my approach
    Okay, what's appropriate your royal holiness?
    Shall I fan you with foliage in front of an audience?
    Hi-five Napoleon?
    Lo-five a Scorpion?
    Then and only then would there ever be an opening
    Well, that's just your big, wet blanket of power
    You weight us down with double-talk until we think we're insane
    But if you're trying to save your pride
    You're trying to save your pride
    As far as I'm concerned that **** is going down in flames
    With your piddly-ass riddles
    You think I ain't mentally apt
    I see you slither 'round my ankle like I ain't gonna react
    No more me nibblin' on a bridle while you're kickin' my abs
    No more "everything's Ore-Ida" when I can't even stand
    No more fiddling with the maps
    No more belittling the past
    No more nonsense when my questions is asked
    No more concessions for an ego so fragile
    Any self-expression chips away at your castle
    Your pride's your damsel, you built your barricade
    I was so careful
    I danced around your insecurities
    On your schedule
    Ignored all your absurdities
    But all the people
    You parody with that ******* your nurturing
    Then you have the nerve to take certain **** personally
    I didn't even speak a handful and I encroached on your territory
    You need therapy there mister Pharisee
    Seriously, 'cause apparently your circuitry's terribly damaged
    How 'bout a nice hot kerosene bath
    I'll come back
    I'll serenade you with flaming arrows oh serpentine
    Your pride needs refurbishing
    I'll extend you that courtesy like-
    "Hi, this is Lyrics Born servicing!"
    Burnt Pride!! Burnt Pride!!
