ecg - failure lyrics

[intro]
it was just a mixtape, it should’ve been more
i don’t think i’ll ever get what i’m working for
in fact, you’ll never hear this, i’ll probably never make it
but even if i did i bet it happened in a bas-m-nt

[hook]
it’s failure, my familiar friend
it’s called failure, cruel as she’s ever been
it’s called failure, seen time and time again
it’s laid on thick, as my patience grows thin

it’s failure, my familiar friend
it’s called failure, cruel as she’s ever been
it’s called failure, seen time and time again
but i’ll face it with a grin until i finally get a win

[verse 1]
she’s my on again, off again, on again lover
even when she’s not around i swear i’m always thinkin’ of her
i’m with her so much that i can’t help but wonder
how the h-ll she has time for all you other motherf-ckers

my buddy said it’s really only proof i tried
missed the game winning shot, then he f-ckin’ cried
cause a failure is a failure and a lie is a lie
so a failure’s still a failure when it’s wholly denied

some people hide from it
some people die from it
some people exploit to market and thrive from it
some people overcome it matter fact i’ve done it
studied every lesson that one could derive from it

the first few lines you hear when the song starts
were written way back when failure tore me apart
left without a dime to spend or a blunt to spark
i was headed for success but i missed my mark
learned to switch mentalities and face what challenged me
sometimes you lose, that’s the harsh reality
but improve through the sh-tty and the good gets great
and those who choose to wait only seal their fate

[hook]
it’s failure, my familiar friend
it’s called failure, cruel as she’s ever been
it’s called failure, seen time and time again
it’s laid on thick, as my patience grows thin

it’s failure, my familiar friend
it’s called failure, cruel as she’s ever been
it’s called failure, seen time and time again
but i’ll face it with a grin until i finally get a win

[verse 2]
it’s a h-ll of a mentality
not everyone’s a fan
i think you cease to be a child
when your dream becomes a plan

i guess i’m sayin’ when you work
work for something real
‘cause every ant should feel proud of the mountain they build
that way the workers work regardless of the standard they’re held to
if stopping was an option i bet this b-tch would’ve fell through
i still do feel it’s my duty to build new
i see few real it’s only natural they fear true
lyricism written as i give ‘em a clear view
of honesty, abolishing these lies that steer you
success is made of failure which you won’t let near you
so it often gets rejected by the few it appears to

me, i play with failure on a regular basis
i love her sense of humour but i think she hates it
as i get to know her more and more i get to see her less and less
i mean she used to stay around me like she was obsessed
it’s almost like she doesn’t like it when i treat her with respect
always b-tching to her family like i’m nothing but stress
maybe i should blame her sister, see that’s how we met
sometimes i think she’s only bitter that i f-cked success

yes, quite the family
sweeter than candy
both tryn’a lock change chain and brand me
are you followin’ the plot or should i draw it in crayon
see life’s bigger than ‘em both i hope you f-cks understand me

[hook]
it’s failure, my familiar friend
it’s called failure, cruel as she’s ever been
it’s called failure, seen time and time again
it’s laid on thick, as my patience grows thin

it’s failure, my familiar friend
it’s called failure, cruel as she’s ever been
it’s called failure, seen time and time again
but i’ll face it with a grin until i finally get a win

it’s just a mixtape (my familiar friend), it should’ve been more
i don’t think i’ll ever get (as cruel as she’s ever been) what i’m working for
in fact, you’ll never hear this (seen time and time again)
i’ll probably never make it (but i’ll face it with a grin until i finally get a win)
but even if i did i bet it’d happen in a bas-m-nt
