eli youngblood - the setup lyrics
[intro]
yeah
[verse 1]
bad guy, with precision explain the definition
the indecision of this stressed case, what is a villain
a militant k!ller, charges to face, long years in prison
or the clever, calculating mastermind to convict him
i hate thinkin’ ‘bout the processes, how the world works
you can’t draw conclusions, gotta be informed first
‘cause there is a reason for every treason committed
is it a lie or a truth and will it please the defendant
‘cause the arabs don’t hate europеans for nothin’
flashback to catholics crusadin’ armies upon ‘em
and i’ma christian but this ain’t about religion
this about livеs at risk in the hands of zealous k!lling
genocides incited by broken, bitter civilians
revolutions against corrupt tyrants, the vile and wicked
why do they obtain the fame, wealth, and name
if you wanna rule you gotta embrace the game’s ways
so play, play, play ‘till judgement day
when a higher power returns and comes down to say
“you sold your soul for everything, appeared to be driven
but when the sleep comes that pact gone follow with it”
let us see ahead and redirect our vision
we livin’ in insolence, it’s iridescently hidden
just spin it in rotation to uncover the wisdom
our reflections are deceiving, the mirror mess with the image
[chorus]
who’s the bad guy
i ask you now, who’s the bad guy
(i got set up one too many times)
let’s put all the stereotypical stuff on halftime
(i got set up one too many times, i)
look into the mirror and retrace through our sad lives
(i got set up one too many times, i, i)
pry up off the mask and look into those mad eyes
who’s the bad guy
i ask you now, who’s the bad guy
(i got set up one too many times)
let’s put all the stereotypical stuff on halftime
(i got set up one too many times, i)
look into the mirror and retrace through our sad lives
(i got set up one too many times, i, i)
pry up off the mask and look into those mad eyes
[verse 2]
the art of manipulation
calmness disintegratin’, my chill and patience, for real
make a big deal of nothing and k!ll with flagrance
don’t even say that i took what you said wrong
my sword drawn
spear comin’ at’chu four+pr+nged
but how am i rash, how
this is my retaliation since you gotta bad mouth
yeah, so i gotta lash out
i gotta stand up ’cause these suckers sat down
and i don’t understand why physical toll beats mental
bruises will fade but the brain can never let go
misinterpret the perpetrator flirtin’ with, irkin’ the hate
murderers evolve from the learning of pain, i urgently say
surgery can’t replace memory, maybe it can, but science don’t perfect everything
there’s better dreams but this is the cruel, cruel world
where family murders family and boys will hurt girls
villains can evolve from the worst situations
but villains are all the cursed men who made them
how can you love when the conflict rotates
circular reasoning always ends in no place, no way
the blame always goes both ways
an eye calls the shots but why do we obey
one way to greatness, okay, then go pay
but ain’t n0body gonna save you when your road fades
like a setup
villainy is a small measure
it’s pressure
blindly tricks you when it befriends you
there is no daunting conquest to rock heaven
the revolution ain’t televised but we got the treasure
[refrain]
i got set up one too many times
(i got set up one too many times)
i got set up one too many times, i
(i got set up one too many times, i)
i got set up one too many times, i, i
(i got set up one too many times, one too many times)
i got set up one too many times
(i got set up)
i got set up one too many times, i
(woah, one too many times)
i got set up one too many times, i, i
(one too many times, one too many times)
[outro]
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
who’s the bad guy
