Solillaquists of Sound - Ask Me If I Care lyrics

I say the same things in life
That I say in my
Songs yet one’s considered right and
One’s considered wrong my friends
Love my aggressiveness when I’m up
On stage but tend to
Take it personal when I’m up
In they face like
"It’s not what you say but
How you come across
" as if they never knew me
From the first time we
Talked the same things happen to
A celebrity I guess, where
He does something wrong and the
World gets upset but
If he continues to bless
Children and brighten up
Their futures thick we give him golf
Claps and wait for him to contradict you
Don’t want unity you want individual freedom
It’s not my fault we
Created what everyone wants
To be them and I could allow
Myself to see your presentation if I didn’t
Acquire so much about our destined
Nation you can pretend you don’t feel it
But can you follow through' cause
You know regardless of how it’s said
The outcome’s always loving you

Ask me if I care and I’ll say I do
Fuck you, that’s for my ego
I love you, that’s personal

Ask me again if I care and I’ll say I do
You can’t claim a song creates ears
You got some, just listen

Why exist as gods and act like slaves?
Fight to the death just to keep your chains
Energy’s depleted, we’re so easily heated
So I bestow my heart
But it’s construed in err
Take my passion as harassment when
I take it there
Thinking that to fight it just
Might justify their weakness
But this music, when suitably used
Is meant to enrich your existence
By providing sight of purpose
Worthy of your choice to listen
Willingness to see will give you vision
Conscious acts preserve self-permission
And I sacrifice my desires
And time giving insight
How to fight in light of opposition

Ask me if I care and I’ll say I do
Fuck you, that’s for my ego
I love you, that’s personal

Ask me again if I care and I’ll say I do
You can’t claim a song creates ears
You got some, just listen

Belly up my fellow mellow crutch
Start a chain reaction
Acting on a duty long overdue
Slow change is in
Progress i profess it's process to
See I seen' I
Mean a lot of things happen, "bad stuff
" then turn for the
Better like' self-awareness
Is actually looking for something
Now' it’s self
WOW seemingly creating reflections of
A brighter view
On art verses technicalities compiled no more
Unexpected routes to turn down while
Alone and following your dream
To resurrect a pulse into the
Seams of it’s struggle
To be accepted as a worthy cause without
Pause' clout and all doubt ya?
Nah! Bout your fall stand up
For your potent potential
Growing essential reality’s your life
Menu lend you a hand man don’t fall
For uncertainty again "Gotta
Get over the hill that’s legible and
" then some men front but don’t know the half
I laugh a lot illuminating
Limit's learning layman’s
Terms for living like a god listen! Gimme the
Benefit of the doubt then I’m out
I swear if you allow the
Child of great talent
To prevail seeking a scale of beauty
From music like this then take
Time to know what it is this
Is Hip-Hop that’s right yo
I used to do it in front of my house'
Now I got 20 year olds trying to tell
Me what it’s all about get the fuck out of
My face and the mic out your mouth!

Ask me if I care and I’ll say I do
Fuck you, that’s for my ego
I love you, that’s personal

Ask me again if I care and I’ll say I do
You can’t claim a song creates ears
You got some, just listen
