Atticus Ross - The Overly Dramatic Truth lyrics

[Verse 1 : El-P] I became for you what you would ask, telepath You're too young to ask out loud, I'm too old to not know that I can talk like you've not heard, I know weapons, you think words I expose you to these terms, you still chose to roll unheard Have to work but I'm so fast, you're so open, I'm so cra** I'm too weak to hold that back, you still think intrigue will last Can't imagine of my past, I just can't explain all that I wish I could trade your place, so romantic, full of faith I must spare, I must learn, I refuse to be your first First to put you in your place, first to make you speed your pace I'm a man now, good or bad, you're a girl still, good for you Don't think this don't make me sad, this is something I must do [Hook] Keep your own time, leave me be, I'm tryin to spare you Tryin to be, God melodic, man on fire, coward long gone, all desire f** you raw now, it's my fault f** you raw dog, I can't stop Should've listened, should've left I can't stop unless you jet It's so simple, open head, I will knit my savage thread Help me help you, walk away, leave this un-amazing grace You don't know from pure disgrace, you still think I'm here to save I'm not even really here, I can't give what I can't take [Verse 2 : El-P] What a ride, what a slide under the door, what a score You think I'm a genius, I know I'm a who*e What a time, what a climb in for our lives, what's in store You've seen love forever, all I see is war I will pull your hair back, f** you on the floor Pour myself into the act, poor myself, boohoo I'm bad Cause I know that these moments end, but telling you the truth is sad You deserve the ignorance and bliss that I still wish I had Don't you let me keep you here, don't ignore my greatest fear I need you to not need me, you need not believe just flee I will put myself inside you, find some way to run and hide you I can't be responsible, do as I say, not as I do [Hook] [Interlude : El-P] This is not my ego talkin, I know I'm no perfect draw And I do love the way you lay there, I do like the way we talk Maybe I'm just condescending, maybe this thing isn't wrong Maybe you should lay right there, put your hands up in the air [Hook] [Outro] You still think I'm here to save This is my type of religion!
