[length: 04:25]
[00:10.28]I’m that first person they talk about in all the books
[00:19.17]I’m that perspective you cannot doubt, see how I look
[00:27.22]Control the narrative reliably, baby, it’s all about me
[00:36.72]And I wrote the book about throwing the book at those who don’t do it by it
[00:45.17]So now I’m holding myself hostage, Stockholm lust just looks like justice
[00:49.66]And enough lefts don’t make the right but two wrongs do
[00:52.74]Oh man, Sun Tzu would love this
[00:54.76]Beating my dead high horse off the high road to low ground
[00:58.41]’Cause if you shake your fist at snakes in grass
[01:01.26]It looks like punching down
[01:03.48]So, God forbid I’m seen just as an average human being
[01:08.16]I mean, imagine if protagonists just died in the first scene
[01:13.46]I’m the gap between a tragedy and comedy
[01:18.03]Don’t come at me
[01:19.44]I’m the main character, and you have to like me
[01:31.50]I loot plot armor from NPCs
[01:37.18]Well, they are to me
[01:40.34]Trite, tropes, traits, traumas, trinkets, and treats, it’s all XP
[01:48.69]Look in the sky, it’s a bird, it’s a plane, no, it’s superego
[01:55.03]The underdog you cheer for
[01:58.18]Villains are everywhere, that’s how I know that I’m a hero
[02:06.61]So tie me to the train tracks, laugh, and snidely twist your mustache
[02:10.97]Snidely Whiplash, Boris Badenov, ignoring me’s bad enough
[02:15.35]Where do you get off? Da, das vedanya, darling
[02:18.17]Daleks in high collars monologue and I outsmart them with a ray-gun and a tweet
[02:24.92]So, God forbid I’m seen just as an average human being
[02:29.35]I mean, imagine if protagonists just died in the first scene
[02:35.23]I’m the gap between a tragedy and comedy
[02:39.32]Don’t come at me
[02:40.75]I’m the main character, and you have to like me

[03:10.20]Judge me by what my cover shows, author becomes beyond reproach
[03:14.70]You don’t know the prose or if the spine is still intact
[03:19.21]Oh, like Alice fell to Wonderland, come astroturf my Overton
[03:23.72]And bolden my demand to live by alternative facts
[03:28.53]Her majesty says, “The Royal We demand a standard of loyalty
[03:34.39]An agreement to be reverent, lick the emperor’s new boots
[03:39.98]The court fool got the guillotine, the witches the stake, you the dopamine
[03:46.17]And Siemens made the Zyklon B but we all still get the flu
[03:52.05]We all do what we need to to get through
[03:57.90](It’s nothing new)
[03:59.23]But I ain’t done a fucking thing to you”
[04:03.14]So, God forbid I’m seen just as an average human being
[04:07.66]I mean, imagine if antagonists lacked any evil scheme
[04:12.59]I’m the gap between a tragedy and comedy
[04:16.48]Don’t come at me
[04:17.90]I’m the main character, and you have to like me
