dax - gotham lyrics
[verse 1]
i think that we’re headed down the wrong road (i swear)
fake’s real and they say real’s fake woke (you see this?)
false prophets on these screens everywhere we go
but what did you expect when dumb people got smartphones
more memes cool make it all a big joke
crown your fake kings and let them sit up on your fake thrones
you’re young now but just wait until you grow old
when life gets real you’ll remember all these words i wrote
i went roaming walked multiple ways for 40 nights, 40 sleeps, yes multiple days (i tried)
in the desert no food water searching for the answers but you listen to these people who got nothing to say (you wouldn’t listen)
you wouldn’t know real if it slapped you right in the face
ain’t for the culture i can tell by the sh+t you embrace (i see it)
i’m in gotham but my minds in a different place
so f+ck your cosigns, money, and your radio play
i be shaking when i write my music
i’ve been anti+violent but don’t push me ’cause i just might do it (don’t push me)
they won’t give you no credit ’cause they know you’ll use it
and that’s what happens when the master starts fearing the student (they learn)
in this city you’re a number they don’t see you as human (they don’t see)
just a puppet they replace for their games and amus+m+nt
in a city full of angels with the biggest influence
i see demons with a platform who just f+cking abuse it
in gotham everybody knows everybody (everybody)
if you ain’t got a blue check, you ain’t anybody (f+ck)
redo, repeat, sleep, double tap, see copy
lost souls unaware they’re turning into dead zombies (zombies)
everywhere you look is plastic, all fabricated
everything you’ve seen on tv was exaggerated (it’s so fake)
don’t n0body see you till you get a million followers
and when you do they treat you like you’re someone and you’re validated
what do you do? how much money you make?
who do you know? what do you drive? where do you stay? (where do you stay?)
and while you’re answering those questions
they’ll be calculating how much of it they can see themselves trying to come in and take
if you’re fragile don’t you even try come to this place (don’t come here)
they gon’ build you just to break you then rebuild you to break
let you reach your own limit then heroically save and that’s exactly how gotham turns you into a slave
[chorus]
in gotham
everyone goes and they lose their souls
’cause they can’t control in gotham
everyone lies, it’s an eye for an eye
you will lose your minds in gotham
everyone goes and they lose their souls
’cause they can’t control in gotham
living in gotham, living in gotham
living in gotham, living in gotham
[verse 2]
n0body’s from here but everybody comes here
wanting to be famous till they realize the price of fame
brings close everything that they once feared
consumed by the algorithm, it becomes clear
life’s a simulation all controlled by a puppeteer
blind people leading blind people driving cars
to a destination that is unclear while they can’t steer
one year, two years, three years, four
drugs, alcohol, addiction, morgue
fake friends, women gold+digging as a sport
who convince you, you should live a whole life you can’t afford
n0body sees you, you’re continuously ignored
everybody wants fame they don’t care what it’s for
they don’t wanna build theirs, they’re just try’na take yours
this is dog eat dog in this messed up world
you think you need this place but you don’t
happiness is not a physical place you call home
did you ever wonder why you feel like you feel
when you take that time away from your phone
fake sh+t goes viral we know this won’t
they’ll say they care but will never show
gotham isn’t just a place it’s a mind state
watered by the thoughts that manifest what you grow
[chorus]
in gotham
everyone goes and they lose their souls
’cause they can’t control in gotham
everyone lies, it’s an eye for an eye
you will lose your minds in gotham
everyone goes and they lose their souls
’cause they can’t control in gotham
living in gotham, living in gotham
living in gotham, living in gotham
[outro]
don’t tell them how you feel ’cause i promise they won’t call back
everybody’s in it for money so it’s all bad
k!lling off my demons i’m rapping this in all black
i ain’t gotta, i ain’t gotta, i ain’t gotta, i ain’t gotta
prove nothing to gotham
they ain’t done nothing for me
for me
