I finally found a way to make you love to hate me,
and it feels so good. And since I found a way, I'm
gon' stay, no leaving. (Sev is much more comfortable
as a recluse.) I like it here, the weathers cold.
(Sev is viewed as heartless for not wanting to
constantly interact with people) Dont undermine my
play, dont make the same mistakes, babe. (Sev
advises people to not buy into rumors and follow
his music to know the truth) But, I know you will,
I know you will! 'Cuz I'm a zombie, motherfucker,
never die, so don't hate cuz you ain't me! (People
are only mad at the things Sev does because he is
so good at all of them)
Some will do it right and spread infection (Sev's
music) regardless. Most'll act 'hard' cuz they'
wretched and heartless. In orbit, I'm soarin' in
my warship, coastin. (Sev is now the observer, not
the provocateur) Hella smooth sailin' for the
heaven sent chosen. (Sev's abilities are divine)
Now choose a religion! (Sev is challenging listeners
to break conditioning)
Your truth is too much like fiction! (People are so
obsessed with negativity, they will invent malevolence
to satisfy the need to be angry)
I've been around the hill and up the hill. (Sev
has gathered a great deal of knowledge as an
artist thus far)
A sunset can never mean death, cuz it'll come back
another day when it's killin' you! (Sev is amazed
that such absurd rumors have spread about him as
of late) For what's left in this effigy's breath
will figure a lack among the vague, if its killin'
you. (The remainder of the 'Black Fame Era' will
leave little to the imagination) So dance clumsy
and have your fun. (Sev is sarcastically telling
people to be ignorant and brainwashed) I got the
job of leadin' the way, since it's killin' you.
(Sev now sees that its too much effort for people
to be real fans, so he has to change his approach
to restore proper fanfare to the music industry)
Cuz any cunt sees I'm that one. They forgot that
y'all was even in play! (Sev is boasting about
being an elite artist and performer)
