daddyphatsnaps - youtube vs lyrics
[intro]
let the seconds bleed away
let the minutes fade to gray
live to fight another day
live to fight another day
[verse 1]
this is it, i’m breaking up with youtube
do what you do, because of you i’ve got some screws loose
slave to the +n+lytics, trying any magic gimmicks
cl!ckbait thumbnails, circle graphics and ten minute videos
tragic, but the conversation happens
every time i release, i’m frantic in a panic like
will this be the one that flies farther into traffic
than i’ve ever been before, but then you take the wheel and crash it
i’m static, literally, and slowly going manic
maybe i will never make it here today and vanish
hour after hour, losing sleep, can barely manage
working full time and my relationship, your cr+ppy antics
gotta swap, you brought me to my knees, i’m ’bout to drop
and my ego’s fully tied in to when the counter stops
i guess i’ll keep grinding, make the work and present it
’till i’m ascended, worthy of your youtube recommended
[chorus]
bring back the overs (bring back)
turn back the time (turn back)
take away my powers
no reason to run (ha)
let the seconds bleed away (ha)
let the minutes fade to gray (come on)
live to fight another day (fight)
live to fight another day
[verse 2]
let’s go to the beginning, i didn’t know my calling
making monotone, video game guides appalling
but i loved every minute, and i knew i wanted more
no equipment, so i got an app on itunes store
it was an app for taking memos, but that was all i needed
well that and imovie then preceeded to complete it
i got a couple breaks, had a hundred in a year
but i stopped at the disapproval of a peer
but when i came back, i was ready, had a second wind
and a new co+captain, battle raps were in
so i took to destiny, gun battles over melodies
and the community welcomed me incidentally
i had a niche, but i wasn’t breaking out
so i knew i had to switch, started chasing other routes
subscribers started leaving, but i wanted them to go
i took a risk, and if i didn’t, man, who knows?
[chorus]
bring back the overs (bring back)
turn back the time (turn back)
take away my powers
no reason to run (ha)
let the seconds bleed away (ha)
let the minutes fade to gray (come on)
live to fight another day (fight)
live to fight another day
[verse 3]
fast forward, i’m a lyric transporter
brand new recorder, but i still remain tortured (still)
obsessed with youtube, a rampant disorder
one without a cure, is anybody in your corner? (no)
no, but guess what? a lot like life
the only thing you can do is your best, and my mic
gives me hope, and youtube, it gives me opportunity
that i never would have had, like connecting you and me
[chorus]
bring back the overs
turn back the time
take away my powers
no reason to run
let the seconds bleed away
let the minutes fade to gray
live to fight another day
live to fight another day
