brian david gilbert - promises... lyrics

[intro skit + spoken]
h+llo, everyone. three years ago, to the day, i released a video entitled “this song is not a metaphor”, a diss track against the concept of caterpillars. in this video, i claimed superiority over the humble caterpillar by stating that i, unlike them, now, three years on, i would like to apologize not only to the caterpillars, but to you, my fans. i would like to apologize for going back on my word. i would like to apologize, but i can’t because…

[chorus]
i keep my promisеs (yea+heah!)
i keep my promises (takе that, caterpillars!)
i keep my promises (y’all still don’t know what’s going on!)
i keep my, i keep my, i keep my
i keep my promises

[verse 1]
chalk it up as another win for old bdg
i be keeping bees. i predict with ease
you can’t feasibly conceive
of how easily this dream was achieved

i learned the ropes. i raised my hopes
and i optimized ’cause i’m a min/max gamer
and then i learned about how much sp+ce bees need
quick disclaimer:

[verse 2]
i don’t keep bees here! there are no bees here!
if you’re my landlord, everything’s grand!
it’s not hard to keep bees
but it is much harder if you don’t own land!
where am i on my beekeeping journey
optimistically, halfway!
wasn’t up to me if i could keep a bee
so why don’t we all just say
i keep my promises!

[outro]
i keep my promises (close enough!)
i keep my promises (so long as it don’t get me evicted!)
i keep my promises
i keep my promises (ha+ha! yeah!)
