Burnt pride is a crazy thing[00:00:40]

But now what does it take to make you feel me concrete[00:00:42]

I ain't your maitre'd I ain't on pain relief[00:00:45]

This ain't make believe I ain't on no ankle leash[00:00:48]

I tried speaking in a rational manner[00:00:51]

Tried to get my point across using regular me[00:00:53]

Ans[00:00:56]

I even patterned my delivery[00:00:56]

Similarly after something you had said[00:00:58]

So that you would not interpret me differently but[00:01:00]

My head's on a tree swing[00:01:02]

Your debt's still lingering[00:01:05]

While you erect gates with codes really nobody knows[00:01:07]

I ask why's it always closed[00:01:10]

I'm told it's my approach[00:01:12]

Well let's suppose[00:01:13]

Just for the sole sake of argument that[00:01:14]

Despite the spite and all the ill will you're harboring[00:01:16]

That me lyrics born all this power that I'm harnessing[00:01:18]

That I didn't come in here to no conquering[00:01:21]

That I came in here to do a little bargaining[00:01:24]

Grease key people do some apple polishing[00:01:27]

Maybe hail a cab for my local congressman[00:01:30]

So he can hook me with the landlord in parliament[00:01:32]

Then I'll set up a booth hand pick my operatives[00:01:35]

Train 'em up send my squad of garbagemen[00:01:38]

To spread the good will all in the environment[00:01:40]

And all the false doctrine and all the carcinogens but now[00:01:43]

I gotta be wise 'bout who I'm targeting[00:01:47]

The key is make the young folks offerings[00:01:50]

So that they don't become adults that are demonstrative[00:01:52]

Or else my chances of retirement go spiraling[00:01:55]

So then I work my way into their subconsciousness[00:01:58]

I tell them always use caution now cautiousness because[00:02:00]

Are you absolutely positive that you can make it without us and be prosperous[00:02:04]

You need to look at me and my accomplishments[00:02:09]

Hey I got an idea let's start a partnership[00:02:12]

It'll be just like livin' in a harlequin[00:02:14]

And we'll feed our pond fishies ostriches[00:02:17]

We'll feed the starved kiddies self doubt lozenges[00:02:20]

Just peeling layer after layer off their confidence[00:02:23]

Until it's one planet us homogenous[00:02:26]

Versus one gumball you optimists[00:02:29]

Burn pride burn pride[00:02:57]

Burn pride burn pride[00:03:19]

Burnt pride is a crazy thing[00:03:28]

What does it take to make you feel me concrete[00:03:31]

I ain't your maitre'd I ain't on pain relief[00:03:34]

This ain't make believe I ain't on no ankle leash[00:03:36]

I tried speaking in a rational manner[00:03:39]

Tried to get my point across using conventional means[00:03:42]

I even patterned my delivery similarly after something you had said[00:03:45]

So that you would not interpret me differently but[00:03:48]

My head's on a tree swing[00:03:51]

Your debt's still lingering[00:03:54]

While you erect gates with codes really nobody knows[00:03:56]

I ask why's it always closed[00:03:58]

I'm told it's my approach[00:04:00]

Okay what's appropriate your royal holiness[00:04:02]

Shall I fan you with foliage in front of an audience[00:04:04]

Hi five napoleon[00:04:07]

Lo five a scorpion[00:04:09]

Then and only then would there ever be an opening[00:04:10]

Well that's just your big wet blanket of power[00:04:13]

You weight us down with double talk until we think we're insane[00:04:15]

But if you're trying to save your pride[00:04:18]

You're trying to save your pride[00:04:20]

As far as I'm concerned that s**t is going down in flames[00:04:21]

With your piddly a*s riddles[00:04:24]

You think I ain't mentally apt[00:04:25]

I see you slither 'round my ankle like I ain't gonna react[00:04:27]

No more me nibblin' on a bridle while you're kickin' my abs[00:04:29]

No more everything's ore ida when I can't even stand[00:04:32]

No more fiddling with the maps[00:04:35]

No more belittling the past[00:04:36]

No more nonsense when my questions is asked[00:04:39]

No more concessions for an ego so fragile[00:04:41]

Any self expression chips away at your castle[00:04:44]

Your pride's your damsel you built your barricade[00:04:47]

I was so careful[00:04:49]

I danced around your insecurities[00:04:51]

On your schedule[00:04:52]

Ignored all your absurdities[00:04:53]

But all the people[00:04:55]

You parody with that dogs**t your nurturing[00:04:56]

Then you have the nerve to take certain s**t personally[00:04:58]

I didn't even speak a handful and I encroached on your territory[00:05:01]

You need therapy there mister pharisee[00:05:04]

Seriously 'cause apparently your circuitry's terribly damaged[00:05:06]

How 'bout a nice hot kerosene bath[00:05:10]

I'll come back[00:05:12]

I'll serenade you with flaming arrows oh serpentine[00:05:12]

Your pride needs refurbishing[00:05:15]

I'll extend you that courtesy like[00:05:16]

Hi this is lyrics born servicing[00:05:18]

Burnt pride burnt pride[00:05:26]
