The Wilde - Name ≠ Ego lyrics

[Verse 1: The Wilde] Back into the Wilde once more unto the breech Politi-California straight preaching from the beach Instagramming a**hole pictures of my feet Like I'm too cool for your startup I've already found my niche Catch me at your local kinkos printing fliers for my shows If b**hes were my songs, then I'd be always banging hoes But I don't need those and I keep a low pro So I do me in Latin like f** a rapper's ego Waking up and hoping that you noticed me and tweeted While you lay awake last night and couldn't fall asleep Now I'm busking on these city streets and trusting there's a plan for me There must be because I'm lucky always gotten what I've needed Heed these words read more talk less I bleed black ink whether happy or depressed It leads me to insanity an aggravated mess I gotta pop what's bottled up and finally de-stress [Hook: The Wilde & Natalie Sullivan] Every single day is the same, never changes One step closer or I waste away Give me a place to play or to lay my head down All I want to do is make a name in this town [Verse 2: The Wilde] I'd like a tall stiff drink and a tangible problem I've got some unhealthy thoughts and I lack a shrink to solve them Want a more compelling narrative and a sound that wins comparisons Like when your favorite rappers brag I wish I could embarra** them But I'm using and abusing all the posts on your news feed Shamefully promoting songs for thumbs ups and streams I'd rather scream through guitars and be beamed up to mars Than compete with bands for sh**ty gigs at tenderloin bars I want a joint and a car and destination far away from All civilization and urban alienation Give me friends who hate phone screens and actually know me The ends justify the means if you don't like it, blow me It's lonely in my lab and I've been staring at this view Determined not to lose but still inspired by the truth San Francisco wants a change and I'm gonna bring to them soon I'll make em see me make me happy Give em something new [Hook] Every single day is the same, never changes One step closer or I waste away Give me a place to play or to lay my head down All I want to do is make a name in this town
