Sage Francis - Narcissist (Live On 90.3 WRIU) lyrics
[Sage Francis - Narcissist Live On 90.3 WRIU lyrics]
I don't look at myself in the
Mirror because I'm a narcissist
I simply like to watch myself exist (hHHH)
Now I'm in a fog and mist (hHHH)
Now my reflection is anonymous ponder this!
I've seen a reflection of my
Soul in the store window
Caught in limbo 'cause I was
Dressed all in Timbo's
Having fantasies of playing Polo with Ralph
Lauren on a Tommy Hill
And my paper thin spirit was still grieving
From the Versace kill in Florida
Opened the door to the store and
I walked down the corridor
To see they had a blow out sale on Nautica
I've always been a Lord of
The button down Flies?
Being they were half-priced
I pass 'em on by looking for Levis
But Guess what? All my favorite
Clothing lines and hip designs
Were being liquidized and it made
Me sick to my eyes
I don't understandwhen I had no endsthe
Price was quick to rise
I'd buy a pair of trends even
If they didn't fit my size
Purchase a surplus of fads
From merchants whose ads
Made these cheap ass fabrics that
Were so worthless and sad
Just look priceless
They used unethical devices to
Attack my sense of
Self-worth during my prepubescent crisis
It fed into my insecurities
So instead of being righteous
I want everyone to see me like this
It's all about who looks the nicest
Ice is falling off my Rolie
Onto my body shoot!
I hope to hell it doesn't melt
And ruin my Armani suit
While I'm sweatin' this
Some kid who doesn't got any loot
Is buying my necklace along with my
Same exact khakis and army boots
What?! This is blasphemous!
Since Adidas tried changing it's logo
There ain't been nothing as wack as this
It's probably a stunt being pulled
By Animal Rights activists
Because of all that Third World country
Garbage but im a pessimist
So while these monkeys sweat over my
Name brands that exchange hands
From enslaved lands
I wonder if I'm the same man
Without rewardfor what I bought
But CAN'T still afford
This is the type of self-realization that
Might have killed the Lord
Didn't mind working free as
A walking billboard
But now I want my money backas
My ice spilled and poured
Onto the floor I did see a
Distorted reflection of my Nike hat
I don't know how others might react
For me it was an unsightly act that
Helped me get my psyche back
I stood 5 feet back
Afraid that it might strike
Me like Shaclack clack!
Ya'll think I'm kidding? It's no big thing
What I seen made my heart
Hurt, stomach turn, throat burn
Teeth cringe spine tingle, and ribs sting
I noticed that the swoosh symbol was
Nothing but a whip in mid-swing
I don't look at myself in the
Mirror because I'm a narcissist
I simply like to watch myself exist (hHHH)
I'm in a fog and mist (hHHH)
Now my reflection is anonymous ponder this
