Atmosphere - Bitter Lyrics
Everything used to be so good thenNow it seems like you're mad at my footprintsI'm only trying to scribble in the book, manIt's not my fault that y'all couldn'tYou must have a lot of free timeOtherwise why're you trying to see mine?Strain your neck, let the blame projectBut don't give yourself the same respectSo independent but undependableWe're all getting old, now take a mental noteAnd stop being so covetousThe crime is the punishmentNow run and get a slither of dignityYou ain't gotta be a figure of miseryYou don't want to be a victim to victoryListening to a bitter sweet symphonyYou're so bitterYou're as cold as a river in the winterThis one is to recognize youYour jealousy needs an anthem, tooYou're so bitterYou're as cold as a river in the winterThis one is to recognize youAnd all of these dreams that can't come trueWe used to get up in uptownThen we hit the highway to run aroundCame home, everybody wanna judge nowDon't let them see you celebrate your touchdownKeep clutching those grudgesDon't budge if no budgetThe old puppets show love in publicBut behind the back, can't trust themDisgusted, repugnant, insulted, repulsiveDiscouraged, rejectionNo protection from your own reflectionChip on your shoulder big as a boulderInsecurity is a slippery slopeGot you looking around for the sympathy voteAnything to give a little glimmer of hopeYou're so bitterYou're as cold as a river in the winterThis one is to recognize youYour jealousy needs an anthem, tooYou're so bitterYou're as cold as a river in the winterThis one is to recognize youAnd all of these dreams that can't come trueTreat love like a limited resourceFight for it like there's never gonna be moreOn the rooftops talk to the spaceshipsLike you've got 2pac locked in the basementGet the bag, man, the ghetto way exitYou get mad like your middle name desperateNo net, better not get left backYeah, you should probably protect thatI'm trying to keep it simple, teeth to the nippleBeat my chisel, leave my initialsFly so far when you follow the signalsSky full of stars and all of them wishfulNot only are we bitter but we're brittleThe world's getting small and everybody's littleGo roll your eyeballs, toot your own whistleDon't ever stop waiting for the windowYou're so bitterYou're as cold as a river in the winterThis one is to recognize youYour jealousy needs an anthem, tooYou're so bitterYou're as cold as a river in the winterThis one is to recognize youAnd all of these dreams that can't come true
