Starving Artist

You think you know the purpose of our stages
Say I'm only entertainment, nothing more
Wanna put me where you think my place is
Order me on how to use the platform
Oh
Why bother trying to make me run
make me run?
Oh
Are you scared my voice is a bigger threat than your gun?

This crowd gets louder when you say
"Sit down, cow-tow, shut up, obey"
Burn books, burn the authors too
You wanna
eradicate every thought against you
Watch now, watch how we go to work
Watch out, we'll strike you where it hurts
Run you over 'cause you're standing still
And maybe
you won't feel it, but history will
What you don't see coming's gonna hit you hardest
Don't underestimate a starving artist

Don't underestimate a
Don't underestimate a
Don't underestimate a starving artist

Drop a dollar on a dream of safety
Demand a refund if I contradict your views
Shoot your mouth sayin' I'm nobody
Just 'cause you didn't know my name—
Well, now you do
Oh
Too late to forget it now that you gave a damn
Oh
I'll make sure they remember who you are and where you stand

This crowd gets louder when you say
"Sit down, cow-tow, shut up, obey"
Burn books, burn the authors too
You wanna
Eradicate every thought against you
Watch now, watch how we go to work
Watch out, we'll strike you where it hurts
Run you over 'cause you're standing still
And maybe
You won't feel it, but history will
What you don't see coming's gonna hit you hardest
Don't underestimate a starving artist

Don't underestimate a
Don't underestimate a
Don't underestimate a starving artist
Don't underestimate a
Don't underestimate a
Don't underestimate a starving artist

This crowd gets louder when you say
"Sit down, cow-tow, shut up, obey"
Burn books, burn the authors too
You wanna
Eradicate every thought against you
Watch now, watch how we go to work
Watch out, we'll strike you where it hurts
Run you over 'cause you're standing still
And maybe
You won't feel it, but history will
What you don't see coming's gonna hit you hardest
Don't underestimate a starving artist

Don't underestimate a
Don't underestimate a
No
