If Karma Was Real You'd Be Dead
I'm hoping that for everything you give you get it back
But you're fabricating stories just to cover your own tracks
And I can see
You lack accountability
Self-righteously you're preaching that compassion's overcast
While you're out there making angels in the ashes of my past
You're such a brute
You used my health as an excuse
Oh the fear that you must live in
Watching altruistic giving
So you take their act of kindness
And you turn it on its head
Man if karma was real you'd be dead
Denigrating friendships when they start to lose their use
But depression doesn't justify emotional abuse
I'm overwhelmed
And I'm depleted trying to help
'Cause talking is the blueprint to harmonious survival
But people love to fight and people love a common rival
And that's me
They blame the wounded, not the thief
Actions getting more deceitful
Normalised by passive people
Convincing 'cause he's mincing
Every fickle word he says
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
And the only thing you actually crave
Is a little red heart
Or a little blue thumb
Dismissing every single wrongdoing
On the comments of people who
Don't know what you've done
You attack the good you can be
Try to villainize the happy
You praise yourself for ignorance
And punish them instead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
But you're fabricating stories just to cover your own tracks
And I can see
You lack accountability
Self-righteously you're preaching that compassion's overcast
While you're out there making angels in the ashes of my past
You're such a brute
You used my health as an excuse
Oh the fear that you must live in
Watching altruistic giving
So you take their act of kindness
And you turn it on its head
Man if karma was real you'd be dead
Denigrating friendships when they start to lose their use
But depression doesn't justify emotional abuse
I'm overwhelmed
And I'm depleted trying to help
'Cause talking is the blueprint to harmonious survival
But people love to fight and people love a common rival
And that's me
They blame the wounded, not the thief
Actions getting more deceitful
Normalised by passive people
Convincing 'cause he's mincing
Every fickle word he says
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
And the only thing you actually crave
Is a little red heart
Or a little blue thumb
Dismissing every single wrongdoing
On the comments of people who
Don't know what you've done
You attack the good you can be
Try to villainize the happy
You praise yourself for ignorance
And punish them instead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
Oh if karma was real you'd be dead
