Capital M-E - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

The nicest man I ever met

Was more malicious than malcontent

Yeah, he taught me how to hold my tongue

And wait to strike 'til their backs were turned

And you slither away like the snake that you are

Yeah, you slither away like the snake that you are

All I ever did was look up to you

And if all I ever did was let, let you down

Ain't nothing stopping me now

Divinity spelt correctly beneath

The receding pride of his twenties

Was capital m-e (I couldn't subscribe)

Was capital m-e (but you can't say I didn't try)

You say what you want (Maybe I didn't get my way)

So you say what you want (Maybe I didn't get my way)

But I got, I got away

All I ever did was look up to you

And if all I ever did was let, let you down

Ain't nothing stopping me now

Was it everything you hoped for?

Was it all of that and more?

Too much too soon?

Or too good to be true?

Was it everything you hoped for?

Was it all of that and more?

All I ever did was look up to you

And if all I ever did was let, let you down

Ain't nothing stopping me now

But all I ever did was look up to you

And if all I ever did was let, let you down

Ain't nothing stopping me now
