Hubris Lyrics by ​sélpide

hubris

2024

[Intro: Miriam Hopkins, Shirley MacLaine, sélpide]
God will punish you
He's doing alright!
The sun, the moon
The world is bound to find me

[Verse 1: sélpide]
“A saint-kissed girl
Will change the world”
That prophecy?
Oh, I know it’s me
But those who fly
Hold up the sky
As punishment
Catharsis well-spent

So pardon me if I ask for a revision
Instead of asking for presumed permission
Aristotle’s definition
States it clearly
It’s the fates who gave me this condition
It’s my fate, I’m a woman on a mission
If you value your position
You won’t find me

[Chorus: sélpide]
Guilty of swallowing the sun in the afternoon
Guilty is my epithet, hail the setting moon
Let the gods be afraid
I have rose here to stay
And those who may call it hubris?
One day they’ll call my name

[Post-Chorus: sélpide]
The sun, the moon
The world is bound to find me

[Verse 2: sélpide]
No temple’s mine
Devoid of shrine
I claim one thing
My own offering
Hold the apple tight (hold the apple tight)
Take a heart-shaped bite (take a heart-shaped bite)
Heed my jersey right (that’s right)
It spells kallisti

I’ll prove my way out of your tradition
From now on this mirror exhibition
Answers only to my vision
Blind eyes beckoning
Life-curator, writer and magician
Got three different names for one religion
The worship of my ambition
Better pray ‘cause I’m stepping in

[Chorus: sélpide]
Guilty of swallowing the sun in the afternoon
Guilty is my epithet, hail the setting moon
Let the gods be afraid
I have rose here to stay
And those who may call it hubris?
One day they’ll call my name

[Outro: sélpide]
The sun, the moon
The world is bound to find me
If greatness is what I see/If greatness is what I’ll be
Then greatness is what I’ll be/Then greatness is what I see
The sun, the moon
The world was bound to find me
This suffering inside me
Might be just here to guide me
The world has just
