Lyric

Look at you, talkin’ loud, chin up proud, runnin’ mouth

Funny lines, who wrote that shit? Don’t know, don’t care about

Thought I wouldn’t see it ’cause I never said a word?

Alright, sure, I’ll play along if that keeps you from gettin’ hurt

Talk all day, it’s a show

Your big thoughts, here we go

Ears are closed, mouth still goes

So I’ll shut mine too, let the beat just flow

Hey dumbass, your faith?

Off-beat ride, your pace

I’m just keepin’ time, pro at this game

Bang your drum or break your gong

I’ll still keep the beat goin’ strong

Not wastin’ my soul on your lame parade

Never stepped inside your line, though you call it “basic rule”

If you knew how far I bent just to match your stubborn groove

You’d see who’s got no rhythm, really feel that truth

But you’re noddin’ hard, thinkin’ you’re in time, fool

Shoulders bounce, think you dance

But I’m still stone cold, watch and laugh

Your beat’s lyin’ to your face

Still I clap along, keep the grace

Hey dumbass, your faith?

Off-beat ride, your pace

I’m just keepin’ time, pro at this game

Tempo breaks, you lose track

I just smile and bring it back

Clap for you, ’cause you like how it sounds that way

Yeah, you’re right, you’re always right

Your words become the rules at night

Me? I’m just the metronome

But you, don’t even know the beat, off-key fool

Hey dumbass, your faith?

Off-beat ride, your pace

I’ll keep time ’til the end, though your clown show’s drainin’

Even if your rhythm wrecks me, makes me bleed inside

I’m the pro, won’t cry

Just keep that time

Alright, let’s make it fun, come on now
