Lampshade King (2013) lyrics

[Verse]
I'm so excited to get in a fight and F things up
At least that's how they do it in these clubs
My performance must be that of beyond and above
Any less just ain't enough
I've spent my life and I know that it ain't right
But I'm not quite prepared to spend the night with you just yet
I'll send you letters filled with my endeavors

This ain't a moment that I would not not forget

[Chorus]
I'm no red carpet and you're not my queen
I won't take part in your wicked drama
And all these mistakes cannot go unseen
Unless made way for a new Lampshade King

You butchered all my insecurities
And with them all I possessed and
Now I bow to the Lampshade King
Until I've learned my lesson

[Post-Chorus]
Let's go to foreign lands

[Bridge]
I'm rigid as hell falling slowly
From what I can tell there's no knowing
If I'll ever come back
If I'll ever see that
Reality
Smile at the people
(Wave your hand)
Shake hands with your evils
(Be a man)
You can try
You can try
But you can't understand
Why would you settle for less you gotta dance while you can

[Chorus]
I'm no red carpet and you're not my queen
I won't take part in your wicked drama
And all these mistakes cannot go unseen
Unless made way for a new Lampshade King

You butchered all my insecurities
And with them all I possessed and
Now I bow to the Lampshade King
Until I've learned my lesson

Until I've learned my lesson

Until I've learned my lesson
