The Overly Dramatic Truth

[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 crass 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 Fuck you raw now, it's my fault Fuck 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 whore 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, fuck 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!
