Testo Archetype - Tommy Genesis

Testo della canzone Archetype (Tommy Genesis), tratta dall'album Genesis

I was 'bout to wait, nothing but a dream

I was 'bout to wait, nothing but a dream

I was 'bout to wait, nothing but a dream

I was 'bout to wait, nothing but a dream

Maybe I will step into my light

Maybe I will finally do what's right

(But it won't be for you)

(But it won't be for you)

You took me for granted, you took off my bandages

I wasn't healed and I'm not your Candace

This isn't art and it's not for sale

You can't buy my pain like it's not conceptual

You can't own the space in between my thoughts like real estate

I know I'm real, but in my state I look like a beautiful painting of a corpse

But you made me pose, of course, mm

You can't make me kneel even with 500K

You can't make my people eat cow, just like I can't see eye to eye with you somehow

Just like you can't see eye to eye with your third eye, strip it down next time you cry, cry

We're sick and tired of the fake you be something real even if it's ugly shit

I said no to so many things when I had convictions

And the world breaks you down, and you start to wonder why you ever said no to begin with

Why you ever moved slow in the thickness?

Or you ever let the one you love fall while holding up

A false idol of another infinitely more insignificant friend

Was I ever a good friend?

Why did I gossip? Why did I pretend I didn't see you when I saw everything?

Something I couldn't fathom was how you believed everything

I said even when I was obviously embellished, I couldn't tell you this

I don't like your art, but I love your heart

I don't like your clothes, but I love your mind

I don't like your nose, but I love your eyes

White girls go to India and do yoga

Brown girls fight for their freedom in the caste system

We don't know the answers

But what happens when you're born with a brown father and a white mother

What happens when you look brown, but carry the weight of being a mixed kid

In the middle of nowhere else where no one else is

Where you're too brown for the white kids, and too watered down for the Vikings

And too weird for the artists

And too nice for the extremists

And too polite for the punks come

And to come for the come

Come here, kid

You're one of us, the Archetypes
