Perseverance

[Hidden track]

Hate when they call me a superstar
Do I look like a superstar?
Yet so far away and out of reach
Ever notice I'm right here with you all?
I cover my face because
They don’t need to see
I ain't no gangster or no thug
I'm just being me
The world reeks of drama
So I cover up my nose
Faces like film left out too long, get overexposed
Getting praised by magazines
From the girls in my clothes
I hope they still love me when I pull away 'cause I'm scared to blow

[Chorus]
WANT WAR?
Well!
WAR WE'LL GIVE!
We'll be rocking this
BANDANA!
Well you/So you
CAN'T SEE SHIT!
[scream]

[2nd Verse]
Now the fear of blowing up
Definitely takes its toll
It sends its demons down to your mind to take control
If it thinks it’s got my mind
Well it better think again
I got the pleasure of the piano
And this powerful pen
But you
([Shae:] You!)
You want 15 minutes to shine, what’s your concept?
What’s so interesting?
What’s your desire?
As soon as you get your cover story
And your precious headlines
So sorry, so sorry, so sorry
They’ll just screw you from behind

[Chorus]
WANT WAR?
Well!
WAR WE'LL GIVE!
We'll be rocking this
BANDANA!
Well you/So you
CAN'T SEE SHIT!

[Bridge]
I don't wanna blow up
I'm smiling 'cause I know
All the pieces that make me me
Will shine from my soul
My self-esteem is not fake
It comes from within
Come and take a picture,
I'll sign whatever you want, my friend

Still
([Shae:] Still)
Still
([Shae:] Still)

Yeah!

War...

[Chorus]
WANT WAR?
Well!
WAR WE'LL GIVE! We'll be rocking this
BANDANA!
Well you/So you
CAN'T SEE SHIT!
[scream]

WANT WAR!
