Juxtaposition
I sing and you sell songs so we're stuck together
Without me there's no you, do you remember
'Cause the need for my dreams you hold and make me the beggar
Build me up, so high up, and drop me whenever
You choose, but we lose when you sell whatever
You think is in for the moment, no honesty - just clever
This business of music can lead to treasure
Treasure, for better or worse, forever
Lost nomenclature
Record label dictator
Trend maker, I am him
Risk - take her out to lunch as we finish up
Card declined now I'm in a rut
My route, I found, it wasn't clear though
My friends think I am a weirdo
Oh, weird for what, doing big things
Doing what I love, saying real things
All these nouns, I am always learning
Learning business 'cause I am yearning
To give you product that I've been earning
I've earned this shhhh... be quiet
No need to talk, I'm stylish
I sing and you sell songs so we're stuck together
Without me there's no you, do you remember
'Cause the need for my dreams you hold and make me the beggar
Build me up, so high up, and drop me whenever
You choose, but we lose when you sell whatever
You think is in for the moment, no honesty - just clever
This business of music can lead to treasure
Treasure, for better or worse, forever
I work for the industry, man, what's up
If you're trying to get in with talent good luck
You're ffffff-what? I can't hear you
That's probably 'cause I don't care, dude
I'm just about the money and I'm your maker
You're the Titanic and I'm the glacier
You may be great but I'll find another
The public won't care 'cause you're just a number
Lottery pick, your art will suffer
So suspect moves I make
Anything you play I take
Then I sell, I own your stake
Of this company you made
I sing and you sell songs so we're stuck together
Without me there's no you, do you remember
'Cause the need for my dreams you hold and make me the beggar
Build me up, so high up, and drop me whenever
You choose, but we lose when you sell whatever
You think is in for the moment, no honesty - just clever
This business of music can lead to treasure
Treasure, for better or worse, forever
The juxtaposition is the real code
So I'll use this song as my ammo
Shoot my ideas as this song flows
That's why I point out both sides of an ego
Oh, I sing and you sell songs so we're stuck together
Without me there's no you, do you remember
'Cause the need for my dreams you hold and make me the beggar
Build me up, so high up, and drop me whenever
You choose, but we lose when you sell whatever
You think is in for the moment, no honesty - just clever
This business of music can lead to treasure
Treasure, for better or worse, forever
Without me there's no you, do you remember
'Cause the need for my dreams you hold and make me the beggar
