I - Intellectual

[Intro: Luke Christopher]

See, I could write another song about money

I could write another song about fame

Only see your neighbor smile, when life's sunny

And everyone around me seems to look the same

So tell me why you left, Mrs. Can't Commit

And tell me why you're scared to speak, Mr. Won't Say Shit

I know you, yeah you, you remind me of a friend

And I, I mean he, well he loves to pretend

He works late nights cause he's scared of the light

So he closes up the shutters and he writes, damn

Nigga probably do this all his life, man

The only noises coming from inside of him: "I"

See, I just got a feeling today

You know I, no way, see I ain't gonna change

See I gotta be, I wanna be, I'm just goin' be me

See even when I'm running from [?]

Just keep on saying: "tell me why would I try to change myself?"

I try to disenvolve myself with shame

I'm always in your life, but never look the same

There's a monster inside of me that I don't want to tame

I wish I could fall in love without ever knowing her name, now

Wouldn't that be something of a fairy tale?

Just met this girl but I feel like I know her very well

Maybe cause it's me I see inside of her

Or maybe if I squint then it's the opposite that hides in her

Wrote this song when I was 15

It got better reactions than when Michelangelo did the Sistine

Chapel. Actually, love is hard to receive

So I just figured I'd thank them and continue as me
