Dignity by KevinKempt Lyrics
[Hook]
You can take away my ego, but you cannot take away my dignity
A swing at me or two will prove to you that I am rickety
But I been out here grinding and got what I wanted truthfully
I made it to the goal so i don't care what all you do to me
[Verse 1]
Truthfully, most of you belong in therapy
Staring me down with your judging faces, man it's scaring me
I'm sure we could get along if you just took the time to talk
Still not giving handouts cause I'm human not a charity
W-w-w-while we're on the topic, man, lets talk about equating me
I know you make comparisons and hope I think it's praising me
But I feel more like y'all either berating me or baiting me
Cause I bеt they all hear it too so soon they'll all start hating mе
Ay the bits up. 2020: my persona mixed up
This was made with just my friends but now I been up
Regret, tried to have some fun while I was depressed
Reject, I'll just keep them up but I'll still be pressed
Have to understand that I'll make more songs
One day I'll be past that fans like old songs
Intervention didn't work, I guess I damaged my health
If you won't give me a chance then I will manage myself
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
You can never take my ego and can never take my pride
Cause If you ever try to swing, I'll dodge and hit you from the side
Cause I am tired of the internet and trying to survive nights
Let me see how good you do when you are in the limelight
Call me trash again cause you stopped at one listen
Ill just hit you in the abdomen since you love the attention
And that all is just hyperbole, but hopefully, you get it
I am done with hearing all about the old me, he is finished
[Spoken]
I'm hearing all this stuff about me
From people who have never even attempted to
Put themselves out there
What place are you speaking from
What experience do you have
What part of your brain is telling you that you have any right to speak on anything I'm trying to do or what I wanna do in future
Get out of my fa-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-
[Instrumental]
Ironic
Idols hate you. idols hate you
And the people you never wanted
Those guys will praise you
All commentary failed
Not your hero. More a cautionary tale
This is wanting pride without
Taking time to make crafts you like
All a fairy tale oh my
God
Oh my god
Oh my god
Oh my god
Oh my-
You can take away my ego, but you cannot take away my dignity
A swing at me or two will prove to you that I am rickety
But I been out here grinding and got what I wanted truthfully
I made it to the goal so i don't care what all you do to me
