Ballyhoo!, Ted Bowne - Renegade lyrics
[Ballyhoo!, Ted Bowne - Renegade lyrics]
Feels like it's written for an imbecile
Dumbed down for mass consumption
There's no feeling at all
Dumb sounding crass presumption from
The industry mall
I got melodies forever, I'm a retro jukebox
It's a felony we never see respect
We just kick rocks
But, I guess these are the prices
When you cling to the 90s
A time when there was substance
That's when we started grinding
I'm a renegade oh, 'cause I'm a renegade
'Cause, I'm a renegade
Oh, I'm just a renegade (Oh)
Stick to your guns when someone
Tells you to drop it
'Cause you got a vision and now
They're trying to stop it
You're bound to hit bottom when
You're trying rock it
But there's plenty of stone
Pick up your hammer and knock it
They think they know what's best
Keep your creations close to your chest
'Cause it's the only way that
I can stay elevated
And pride is just priceless
Can't afford to go change it
I'm a renegade oh, 'cause I'm a renegade
'Cause, I'm a renegade
Oh, I'm just a renegade (Oh)
Renegade wanna retain my sanity
Stay in love with this serenade
Gonna go down with the ship
Through the crushing abyss
Disarray from the stupid mistakes
And career smoke grenades sail away
Got my own crusade, I will not be played
Why do they think they know
What's best for me?
My hand, it moves for no one else, hey
Get up and drive and move it inside
Do the same thing every day (Every day)
Light up the vibe and move it outside
Get rest and then replay (Then replay)
Take another hit for the team
Make sure you mean just what you say
(What you say) sell out the spot with a
Line around the block
Get paid with no delay
'Cause, I'm a renegade
Oh, 'cause I'm a renegade
'Cause, I'm a renegade
Oh, I'm just a renegade (Oh)
Renegade wanna retain my sanity
Stay in love with this serenade
Gonna go down with the ship
Through the crushing abyss
Disarray from the stupid mistakes
And career smoke grenades sail away
Got my own crusade, I will not be played
