TENDENCIES Lyrics by NøtInVain

TARPIT

2024

[Intro]
Shut the fuck up and let me die in peace!
I just need to speak my peace
It's hard for me to see positivity
Picked up some tendencies
Since you don't remember me
Still feeling that December sting
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Glass of bourbon with David Berman
Clink the glasses and say the sermon
Wasn't supposed to leave this early
Pretend it's all okay
So I beam the pearlies
But they're lеss white these days
And steepеd in worries
Give a little lok like "please stay"
But I'm out of energy
Gave too much to the enemies
Deepest journey, all these memories
Maybe regret it and hit delete

[Pre-Chorus]
Got some horrifying tendencies
Glorifying jealousy
Justifying ecstasy
Just part of the recipe
Think about what makes me me
Dependencies
Embarrassing
Help me find my peace when I speak

[Chorus]
Sinking in this tarpit and it gets deep
Think over these scars, quit
Don't bleed, just go to sleep
I've got horrifying tendencies
Glorifying jealousy
Justifying ecstasy
Best to just pretend you don't remember me

[Verse 2]
You're laying next to me
But now it's daylight so I've gotta leave
Haven't been all there since you sang that song
Asked me to play the keys on your song about me
Sound exactly like my favorite Billie, at the time
I'd write rhymes, only
Good things to say
But it morphed slowly into something ugly
Preaching my sermon to sometimes one person monthly
Funny to think I could ever make money
Funny to think I could see it this way
Slowly but surely succeeding each day
Funny to think I could seize the keys to the game
And I'd do it all without you adding more weight
I'm sinking in the tarpit again
Feels like a targeted end
In the darkness again with my friends
Fossils of my peers, I got tar in my lungs
Feels like I'm too old, but I'm still so young
Don't wanna manifest it, so I hold my tongue
Never been around death, inching closer when I'm drunk
My ego grew and my humbleness shrunk
Cause I got a stream on a song
I think I must've just put up

[Chorus]
Sinking in this tarpit and it gets deep
Think over these scars, quit
Don't bleed, just go to sleep
I've got horrifying tendencies
Glorifying jealousy
Justifying ecstasy
Best to just pretend you don't remember me

[Verse 3]
I wanna be done
But I just can't
Fallin' so deep in this descnet
Just making lil shit that's just decent
Consistency in the way of my legacy
Jealousy I feel in your ecstasy
I've got like three friends
But I've got way more enemies
Writing my verses in a poor melody
Turning my darkest thoughts to a parody
Straight from the heart and these hardening arteries
Then six tapes of my b-sides and rarities
"Are you an artist?"
I say "I'm like barely"
But talking like that won't bring in extra royalties
Studio nights under lights in my eyes at nineteen
Spending these hours with flowers of green
Saying these prayers to the powers that be
Getting harder to clock all these hours as me

[Outo]
Horrifying tendencies
Now bring it back
