father rhyme - amplified gymnasium lyrics
[verse 1]
what can i say? never really been selective
i kinda panicked when i got a new perspective
got a grip from afar like a pair of tongs
guess that i just have a thing for writin’ love songs
it gets tiring maintaining a façade
prolly why it broke in the middle of a head nod
music is a h-ll of a drug, and i’m a crack addict
knew that i could open up, that’s why i took a crack at it
in an empty sp-ce where i couldn’t feel whole
i became my own director and i took control
cranking up the volume ‘cause i’m amped up
i transformed and i’m askin’ danger “what’s up?”
take myself out the bag like a side of fries
let it go, keeping it in won’t be my demise
carried like a king’s standard, flag flyin’ high
fly my true colors now, the time’s nigh
[chorus]
i decided it’s time i get truthful
been feeding myself lies by the spoonful
i control my life, imma make a new path
now fate’s gonna feel my wrath
i’m sick and tired, man, i’m bringin’ down the hamer
uncensoring myself like kramer
it’s all thanks to a battle of the bands
so, to the beat, i clap my hands
[verse 2]
why does s-xuality dictate our mentality?
all it does is dictate who we love, in reality
a s-xy personality is my weakness
and people know that i’m the best at keeping secrets
when it comes to me, sometimes i keep my mouth shut
my reward is another door slammed shut
doors 1 through n always got some kind of prize
but i was paralyzed for fear of bein’ ostracized
some people think this kind of thing disingenuine
well, man, i’m tellin you the truth out of respect, and
i’m not doin’ this for fame, and it’s not for clout
i just wanna show the people what i’m all about
attraction ain’t just zeroes and ones, that’s binary
real genuine bonds, that’s primary
i ain’t askin’ for a hollywood ending
it don’t exist, so i’ll find the next best thing
gotta say it now, this my chance
hope my words pierce like a lance
all the world’s a stage, so i will dance
i see london, i see france
take a glance
at all of me like ct scans
ifs and ands, pots and pans
seems it’s pan my soul demands
[chorus 2]
decided that it’s time i get truthful
been feeding myself lies by the spoonful
i control my life, imma make a new path
now fate’s gonna feel my wrath
i’m sick and tired, man, i’m bringin’ down the hamer
uncensoring myself like kramer
it’s all thanks to a battle of the bands
so, wit the flow, i move my hands
[verse 3]
switch it up, no slavery
this freedom is savory
negroes found love in hopeless plains
so society could never put their souls in chains, uh
got skin like ferrero rocher
my spirit is janelle monáe
we’re free to love in this day and age
i’m proclamatin’ emanc-p-tion, ayyy
plus don’t exist in college
but that was stress on the side
gotta be honest if it’s loyalty i seek
and i’m not jekyll, so why should i hide?
i wanna be myself, that’s sans pandora
with my true self, stand proud like オラ(ora)
don’t come for my aura
or they won’t know where to find you like dora
can i kick it? i’m on a ride called quest
c with f just proved i got a tribe called best
told myself “now you gotta search you”
part 2: the next virtue
in this journey, i’m the fool
i’m the joker, lookin’ cool, usin’ tarot as a tool
feel my heart break, but it’s ready for tomorrow
i tell my wild heart, “sayonara”
[outro: father rhyme and olias]
gotta let it show, diana
the other half of my heart, havana
i been livin’ two lives, montana
до свидания (do svidaniya), indiana
until we next meet, shoes, clothes
waited so long, didn’t mean to impose
now that that’s done, please come with me
i want you to see my dream
word
(unintelligible)
