Do I have to prove what is already true?
Look at me, look at me; I’m your drunk anomaly
Tear apart my message and my rep, but it don’t bother me
From a child you heard the phrase “don’t judge a book” but did ya hear?
People burning books right now, the covers gone, the judge is clear
Look at me, Look at me, I’m the new hypocrisy
Knowledge at your fingertips, but facts, no they don’t bother me
Faced with your derision, inhibition reigns the timid set
Patrons to the patriarchy, patent pending, don’t forget
Look at me, Look at me, I’m so happy to be free
Happiness is fleeting if it’s beating from the powers that be
Drug me up, *** me up, and tie me to the tv screen
give me tasty pleasures to keep me now from feeling mean
Look at me, Look at me, I’m a living entity
how much will you pay me to tell them how it’s all a dream?
Do I have to prove what is already true?
Do I have to prove what is already true?
I don’t have to prove a **** thing to you.
