about

This is a songwriting session/demo recording taken on my phone.

lyrics

Hey, you--
I think you're smarter than those other guys.
Hey, you--
I know it's got you all torn up inside
that all you do is sell, sell sell,
and what you're selling no one wants to buy
Don't you worry friend,
I've got the salve to ease your mind.

Hey, you--
I've got what you need
And you,
you've got that authenticity

Have you ever modeled?
They should see your face!
Go on, show it all,
this is your safe space.
Just remember to sell! Sell! Sell!
Hey, I'm just saying they should see your face.
Make them like it and subsribe or
you'll be gone without a trace.

And you, you've got what they need!
And you, you've got that authenticity!

You have a feeling.
Is it okay?
If your friends knew
what would they say?
Well, you better check in with me
yeah, you'd better check in with me.

(Some will nitpick.
Some will naysay.
Some will say our love's not okay.
You cut them off at the knees.
Just cut them off at the knees.

Forget the things
you knew before me.
time to join my righteous army!
Bitch, you're standing with me!
You'd better listen to me.)*

You want to break out?
You want to cry out?
You want to leave your humble quarters?
Well, here's a list of your disorders.
You can't exist without me.

You can't exist without me.
