lyrics
I’ve been deducing
That lately we can’t lose and
Resentment’s been brewing
From friends I haven’t seen a while
They're like, "How’d you do it?
Longer, I’ve been pursuing
And the mix of LP1 and LP2 is
Nowhere near as good as mine"
And I agree but wouldn’t change a thing if I could
Find something else to nitpick like we’re no good
But we get better with age, can’t say the same for you
Write an album in 20 days, this EP just took 2
Don’t give a fuck about no analytics now
Your favorite band’s favorite band with barely 10k listeners now
Inbox full of solicitors, fans double as petitioners, the presence of parishioners
We stay wow’ing critics
How can you say that I can’t talk my shit?
How can you say we just can’t flex like this?
When you’ve never played to 1000 screaming kids
When an hour of your time ain't worth what ours is
I know what you're thinking, they’re just the opening act
He’s got no right to talk like that
No right to talk like that but
I spent decades just paying dues
Grinding for accolades so there'd be no excuse
That lately we can’t lose and
Resentment’s been brewing
From friends I haven’t seen a while
They're like, "How’d you do it?
Longer, I’ve been pursuing
And the mix of LP1 and LP2 is
Nowhere near as good as mine"
And I agree but wouldn’t change a thing if I could
Find something else to nitpick like we’re no good
But we get better with age, can’t say the same for you
Write an album in 20 days, this EP just took 2
Don’t give a fuck about no analytics now
Your favorite band’s favorite band with barely 10k listeners now
Inbox full of solicitors, fans double as petitioners, the presence of parishioners
We stay wow’ing critics
How can you say that I can’t talk my shit?
How can you say we just can’t flex like this?
When you’ve never played to 1000 screaming kids
When an hour of your time ain't worth what ours is
I know what you're thinking, they’re just the opening act
He’s got no right to talk like that
No right to talk like that but
I spent decades just paying dues
Grinding for accolades so there'd be no excuse

So hard to un-vibe! It's like these melodies and feelings came from drawers inside our brains, too real to forget! Might be too deep, it's just a good record. Run up the saaaales <3
