lex the lexicon artist - narcissist lyrics
[verse 1]
i got a problem that’s hard to fix
i gotta be honest, i’m a narcissist
when somebody says i’m dope as sh-t or that my arts legit
then the dopamine starts to hit
and i thought it was my artist wish but
ever since i was a kid, my conceitedness was hard to miss
in grade school i would throw a tantrum
even smack a b-tch
cause i needed to be the smartest kid
and all the hacks would attack armed with whips and bad words
everybody laughed at the abjectly sad nerd
i had to prove i was better so i put in the effort to be cleverer
but i think i had it backwards
now i’m doing shows east to west and
they shower me with praise, say i’m gifted, x men
i question it, because my former best friend
told me i should stop surrounding myself with yes men
[chorus]
i stare at my reflection in the water woah
tell me if i’m in too deep now
you make me feel like flowers in the sun
but if i grant you too much power then you’re gonna make me drown
i stare at my reflection in the water woah
am i really in too deep now
you make me feel like flowers in the sun
but if i grant you too much power then you’re gonna make me drown
[2nd chorus]
ohhh
you’re so hard to quit
ohhh
cause i’m a narcissist
ohhh
it’s all part of it, i won’t call it quits, cause i’m a narcissist
x2
[verse 2]
they say i have a raging ego
maybe that’s equivalent to hating people
i say i’m equal but i think i’m better
i leave my friends in the gutter while i race for the cheddar
and whether that’s a bad thing for a rat on the wheel
i do it anyway cause i don’t give a cr-p how they feel
climb social ladders in a search for glamour
only ever f-ck a man who has m-ss appeal
or at least, that’s what he said of me
he said to me “lex, you lack empathy”
though i try my best to act sensibly
there’s some truth to that claim and it plagues me endlessly
i love my brain but i hate my feelings
my ability to spend them has reached a ceiling
i’m turning into the character i wrote and i’m trapped
could i really be a sociopath?
[chorus]
i stare at my reflection in the water woah
tell me if i’m in too deep now
you make me feel like flowers in the sun
but if i grant you too much power then you’re gonna make me drown
i stare at my reflection in the water woah
am i really in too deep now
you make me feel like flowers in the sun
but if i grant you too much power then you’re gonna make me drown
[2nd chorus]
ohhh
you’re so hard to quit
ohhh
cause i’m a narcissist
ohhh
it’s all part of it, i won’t call it quits, cause i’m a narcissist
x2
[bridge]
and it’s getting to my head
all the things that you have said
from the second that we met
all the praise i can’t forget
hope i haven’t been misled yeah
[chorus]
i stare at my reflection in the water woah
tell me if i’m in too deep now
you make me feel like flowers in the sun
but if i grant you too much power then you’re gonna make me drown
i stare at my reflection in the water woah
am i really in too deep now
you make me feel like flowers in the sun
but if i grant you too much power then you’re gonna make me drown
[2nd chorus]
ohhh
you’re so hard to quit
ohhh
cause i’m a narcissist
ohhh
it’s all part of it, i won’t call it quits, cause i’m a narcissist
x2
