CORRECT LYRICS
Lyrics : Dark Horse
This is more than just a portrait of my cerebral cortex
This a mural of my devotion
Took a couple years to develop my instinct
Now I hunt down every synth, leave the carcass at your doorstep
They give me an inch, bet I'm taking forty acres for my kingdom
And tell 'em it was a cinch like a corset
Funny part is the same people doubted my drive, headed for my lane
Ain't that sh*t ironic, Mrs. Morrisette?
They don't know I been through it
Probably why my influence hit 'em hard
Leave 'em struggling with the emotions
And if every tear I've cried was measured or verified
Y'all would be treading water in my azure oceans
So I chop and portion these tumultuous memoirs into soundbites
So y'all can sit and digest every morsel
I want every gem I drop to engage 'em
So I ask y'all consider this submission a proposal
I've been banging on these doors, I'm 'bout to kick dem down
We've been trodding on this long and lonely road, road
Been so long, it's time I finally get my victory now
Oh no, they can't deny my strength no more, oh, no, no
This like my confessional, the way I release these feelings
I don't trust a lot of folk and the only priests is killers
Maybe I'm a bit elitist, but my ink is peerless
Want my thesis chiseled onto stone reliefs in Venice, my goodness
I'm a real strong contender in this
They tried to count me out, but I'm the sum of all fears, extent is endless
Family members got their freedom through amendments, and this
Industry still doubting my constitution for pen ascendance
What a shock, got a gift of the gab
And my knack for the glyphs got 'em gripping the bag
Just relax, no addiction to chips or the cash
Spit a hex on the wax, get my fix from the craft
Every strand of my DNA branded champion
Call it vanity, all of my candids handsome
In demand 'cause I made all of my tragedies anthems
Put the plan into motion and vanished, phantom
This a mural of my devotion
Took a couple years to develop my instinct
Now I hunt down every synth, leave the carcass at your doorstep
They give me an inch, bet I'm taking forty acres for my kingdom
And tell 'em it was a cinch like a corset
Funny part is the same people doubted my drive, headed for my lane
Ain't that sh*t ironic, Mrs. Morrisette?
They don't know I been through it
Probably why my influence hit 'em hard
Leave 'em struggling with the emotions
And if every tear I've cried was measured or verified
Y'all would be treading water in my azure oceans
So I chop and portion these tumultuous memoirs into soundbites
So y'all can sit and digest every morsel
I want every gem I drop to engage 'em
So I ask y'all consider this submission a proposal
I've been banging on these doors, I'm 'bout to kick dem down
We've been trodding on this long and lonely road, road
Been so long, it's time I finally get my victory now
Oh no, they can't deny my strength no more, oh, no, no
