Brutal Jesters - So Vicious lyrics

Yeah (yeah [6x])

Yo
You were that foundation
Never gonna be another one, no
I followed, so taken
So conditioned I could never let go
Then sorrow, then sickness
Then the shock when you flip it on me
So hollow, so vicious
So afraid I couldn't let myself see

That I could never be held
Back or up, no, I'll hold myself
Check the rep, yep, you know mine well
Forget the rest let them know my hell
There and back yet my soul ain't sell
Kept respect up, the best they fell
Let the rest be, let the rest be
The tale they tell that I was the...

Test my will
Test my heart
Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up
Yeah, yo
Y'all go hard, I go smart

Yeah

Yeah (yeah [2x])
Y'all go hard, I go smart

Yo [2x]
You were that foundation
Never gonna be another one, no
I followed, so taken
So conditioned I could never let go
Then-then sorrow, then sickness
Then the shock when you flip it on me
So hollow, so vicious
So afraid I couldn't let myself see

Yeah (yeah [4x])
Test my will, test my heart
Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up
Y'all go hard, I go smart
How's that working out for y'all in the back, huh?
I've seen that frustration
Been crossed and lost and told "no"
And I've come back unshaken
Let down and lived and let go

So you can let it be known
I don't hold back, I hold my own
I can't be mapped, I can't be cloned
I can't C-flat, it ain't my-my tone
I can't fall back, I came too far
Hold myself up and love my scars
Let the bells ring wherever they are
'Cause I was there...

So hollow, so hollow
So vicious, so vicious
So afraid I couldn't let myself see

Test my will (test my will [3x])
Test my heart (test my heart [3x])
So hollow (so hollow [3x])
So vicious (so vicious)
So afraid I couldn't let myself see

Y'all go hard, I go smart
Yeah

Yeah (yeah [8x])
