Fake Somebodies: Real Nobodies lyrics by I, Omega

Intro
Ladies and gentlemen, if I could have your attention, uh
Wait, no, excuse, maybe if I, hey, hey, ladies and gent—
If I could have your attention, please?
Just for—just for one, one second, okay?
Just for one—fuck this

Verse 1
Open on a man sitting on a stage
Captivating the audience with his grim face
„This is all your fault, you just ignore the facts”
Muttered as the trigger’s pulled and the audience laughs

Chorus
You’re too busy groveling at the hands that feed us
If vanity is all we have, sit back, relax, this moment won’t last

Verse 2
What’s an artist to do when the entertainment’s been compromised?
Strapped to a seat, eyes glued to your screen, cognitive larceny pacifies
Five years I’ve laid in the trench hoping I could see you through it
But this war only benefits the soldiers who surrender to gimmicks, hey yeah

Verse 3
Two, three, four
I’m too busy hemorrhaging from every orifice, whoo
I could give a fuck about where you’ve been nor care when you desert us

Chorus
You’re too busy groveling at the hands that feed us
If vanity is all we have, sit back, relax, this moment won’t last
You’re too busy groveling at the hands that feed us
This moment wasn’t meant to last so enjoy it while you can

Outro
Let’s take a minute to discuss all the places we won’t go
The people who won’t hear us, the success we won’t know
You haven’t any worth, your art is pointless
And that’s coming from the guy whose point hasn’t surfaced
Glory was made with tears, sweat, and blood
You helped the thirsty with piss in a jug
I’ve come to terms with my obscurity
I just hate to see my heroes accepting defeat
