DIRTY LAUNDRY

[Verse 1] Everybody got opinions Everybody got a throne Everybody loves the future Till it isn’t theirs to own Now the room is getting nervous Now the whispers getting loud Funny how they love a rebel Till the rebel draws a crowd [Pre-Chorus] Point your finger Say my name Act like yours don’t leave a stain [Chorus] Hang my dirty laundry out Let it wave above the street Tell ’em everything you heard Tell ’em everything you think I don’t need your clean approval I don’t need your pedigree If you hate the way I made it You’re gonna fucking hate me [Post-Chorus] Talk Talk Talk Keep talking I sound better when you do [Verse 2] You keep preaching preservation From a house somebody built Selling copies of your heroes While you’re drowning me in guilt Same four chords Different haircut Same old blood beneath the sleeve You don’t hate what I created You hate that they believe [Pre-Chorus] Point your finger Say my name Act like yours don’t leave a stain [Chorus] Hang my dirty laundry out Let it wave above the street Tell ’em everything you heard Tell ’em everything you think I don’t need your clean approval I don’t need your pedigree If you hate the way I made it You’re gonna fucking hate me [Bridge — stripped / half-rapped] You don’t hate the sound You hate where it came from You don’t hate the song You hate what it became You don’t hate the crowd You hate you can’t control ’em And you don’t want the truth— You want somebody to blame [Breakdown] Check your closet Check your hands Check the bodies Where you stand Everybody’s pure Until the lights come on Everybody’s real Till the mask comes off [Final Chorus] Hang my dirty laundry out Let it wave above the street Every scar Every stain Every fucking part of me I don’t need your clean approval I don’t need your pedigree If you hate the way I made it— Good. You’ll remember me. [Outro] Keep talking. Makes the room louder.
