Better off as Friends

Man, I hate it when my favorite bands go on indefinite hiatus, and later announce a new side project.
They may be done, what if I'm not yet?
Now I know that you think that I might not get what you're going through - but I totally do.
That chip on your shoulder's a boulder I'm moving to show and to prove that I know what I'm doing.
And I ain't even aiming to brag when I say I'm amazing at rap. '
Cos I'm honing my craft every moment I have, so it's only a statement of fact.
And see Rocky's still making that post-New Wave prog-electronica indiecore synthpop.
And he said to put on it whatever I wanted, but all I could think of was hip-hop.
And I promise that I'll never lie on a track, 'cos diamonds and gold are not why I'm in rap.
I want you to know that I'm trying to act like an honest adult with a spine in my back.
If you give it a listen and hate it, that's fine.
I'll be grateful and thank you for trying.
I'm honestly sorry I wasted your time - unless maybe you're changing your mind?
This isn't rock and roll.
This sounds so thrown-together.
Whatever happened to Oppenheimer?
I liked their old stuff better.
This isn't real hip-hop, this is some new bold endeavor.
What happened to The Remnant?
I liked their old stuff better.
I'm so sorry I broke your heart.
Never meant to be the one who would tear this apart.
And I'm sorry...
if I let you down.
One without two's just a mediocre sound.
And I'm left here holding this impossible crown.
And I'm sorry...
that you're stuck with me.
This isn't rock and roll.
This sounds so thrown-together.
Whatever happened to Oppenheimer?
I liked their old stuff better.
This isn't real hip-hop, this is some new bold endeavor.
What happened to The Remnant?
I liked their old stuff better.
We were better off, we were better off as friends.
This isn't rock and roll.
This sounds so thrown-together.
We were better off, we were better off as friends.
Whatever happened to Oppenheimer?
I liked their old stuff better.
We were better off, we were better off as friends.
This isn't real hip-hop, this is some new bold endeavor.
We were better off, we were better off as friends.
