“Victim” Lyrics by Barrett Riggins

Smoke Machine

2021

(Chorus)
Everyone's sick of me rhyming
I am a victim of timing
Didn't anticipate climbing
Petulant pendulum swings
Floating and fussing through airspace
Trying to keep up with their pace
Thought that this cliff was a staircase
Mama I wanna grow wings
(Verse)
Ill-equipped to navigate the nuance
You assume I'm just a copy-cat
Now I could fake the certainty for you
But who wants that?
(Chorus)
Wonder what cloud I'll be on next
I am a victim of context
You say that I have a complex
Oh it hurts when you complicate things
(Verse)
Sign me up I wanna fight for your side
Simon says at superhuman speeds
This chicken shit will follow anywhere
His tour guide leads
(Chorus)
Wonder what cloud I'll be on next
I am a victim of contеxt
You say that I have a complex
Oh it hurts when you complicatе things
(Bridge)
Oh you complicate things
You complicated things
You complicate things
(Chorus)
Why's it so hard to compare notes?
Prying the blade off of their throats
I am a "victim" in air quotes
