Bitter

Everything used to be so good then Now it seems like you're mad at my footprints I'm only trying to scribble in the book, man It's not my fault that y'all couldn't You must have a lot of free time Otherwise why are you trying to see mine Strain your neck, let the blame project But don't give yourself the same respect So independent but undependable We're all getting old, now take a mental note And stop being so covetous The crime is the punishment Now run and get a sliver of dignity You ain't gotta be a figure of misery You don't want to be a victim to victory Listening to a bitter sweet symphony You're so bitter You're cold as a river in the winter This one is to recognize you Your jealousy needs an anthem too You're so bitter You're cold as a river in the winter This one is to recognize you And all of these dreams that can't come true We used to get up in Uptown Then we hit the highway to run around Came home everybody wanna judge now Don't let them see you celebrate your touchdown Keep clutching those grudges Don't budge if no budget The old puppets show love in public But behind the back can't trust it Disgusted, repugnant Insulted, repulsive Discouraged, rejection No protection from your own reflection Chip on your shoulder big as a boulder Insecurities a slippery slope Got ya looking around for the sympathy vote Anything to give a little glimmer of hope You're so bitter You're cold as a river in the winter This one is to recognize you Your jealousy needs an anthem too You're so bitter You're cold as a river in the winter This one is to recognize you And all of these dreams that can't come true Treat love like a limited resource Fight for it like there's never gonna be more On the rooftop talk to the spaceships Like you've got 2Pac locked in the basement Get the bag, make the get away exit You get mad like your middle name desperate No net, better not get left back Yeah, you should probably protect that I'm trying to keep it simple, teeth to the nipple Beat my chisel, leave my initials Fly so far when you follow the signals Sky full of stars and all of them wishful Not only are we bitter but we're brittle The world's getting small, and everybody's little Go roll your eyeballs, toot your own whistle Don't ever stop waiting for the window You're so bitter You're cold as a river in the winter This one is to recognize you Your jealousy needs an anthem too You're so bitter You're cold as a river in the winter This one is to recognize you And all of these dreams that can't come true
