Meltdown

[Produced by Stromae] [Intro: Pusha T] Lorde, meet King Push [Verse 1: Pusha T] Life is like a costume party Just cover the floors in Cavalli Let's hide the hurt in a molly We're all tryna be somebody else You can't hide your tears in wealth When your heart knows you hate yourself It's all pain we felt Just the way that the card's been dealt [Refrain: Lorde] Velvet rope, let us pass Drop an olive in your glass Put it on, a disguise It's an opera of lies Everyone on the run Fifty feet all on the gas Take him out, take him out Gonna take him out, woah [Pre-Chorus: Lorde] We're the only theory they can't prove And we don't have anything to lose [Chorus: Lorde] In my eyes, in my ears bring might Love is only figured once in life Tell the crowd, search the town And we made it all melt down It's a full meltdown [Verse 2: Q-Tip] Try to break her spirit so it shouldn't be surprisin' We're here with no fear and gave her uprising Gonna blend in with the bullies and the bureaucrats Arrows pierce like lightning, choppers sound like thunder clap Never will you stand, we gon' lay you down Debonair and dapper kids comin' in to take the town Try to restrain us, even though you trained us We're better than you are, now we're gonna make you famous [Refrain: Lorde] Velvet rope, let us pass Drop an olive in your glass Put it on, a disguise It's an opera of lies Everyone on the run Fifty feet all on the gas Take him out, take him out Gonna take him out, woah [Bridge: Pusha T & Lorde] We're all lookin' for status Cristal sent over on gratis Can't pretend we're not plastic When these poker faces take practice Who to trust? Who to love? Who to run from? Who to hug? Set fire to a government of thugs Respect only comes from the money or your blood We're out of sight, shadows of light They're closing in and I know where we're goin' But I don't know who I'll be [Chorus: Lorde] In my eyes, in my ears bring might Love is only figured once in life Tell the crowd, search the town And we made it all melt down It's a full meltdown In my eyes, in my ears bring might Love is only figured once in life Tell the crowd, search the town And we made it all melt down It's a full meltdown [Outro: Haim] (I can hear, and see a ghost) Was it meant to be? (In my mind, I know) 'Cause I can't see (And if you keep acting up) I can't see (I'm your undertow) (I can hear, and see a ghost) Was it meant to be? (In my mind, I know) I can't see (And if you keep acting up)
