Raw Deal (Fox, Oliver, and Naoki Collab)

[Intro, inserting a recording of me screaming so angrily] "What's the FUCKING POINT?!?!?" [more screams of absolute rage from my FOX persona here] [Verse 1, singing, seething] Every time I try to stay positive, Reality slaps me in the faaaace... Every time I try to hope, That's crushed to bits anywaaaay...! No matter how cautiously, No matter how logically, No matter how honestly, There's a new roadblock. In addition to other ones, There's one more showing up. [tiny pause] [spoken, tersely] "Makes me want to scream my head off..." [Pre-chorus - aggressive gritty vocals] Is this just not meant to be?! This goddamn rotten situation, It frustrates the hell out of me! I've got every right to scream! Scream! SCREAM!!! [Chorus - aggressive, intense] ARE YOU HAPPY?!? ARE YOU HAPPY?!? This breaks my heart. This is hurting me. WHO IS IT THAT HATES ME?!? THIS IS HORRIBLY SHITTY!!! My intentions, my dreams, They're fading from me. (FADING AWAAAAY!!!) I'm not a selfish person. I do my best to stay honest, Yet here I ammmmm, Getting a raw deal againnnnnn... Getting a raw deal again!! AGAIN!!! [Verse 2, singing, caring][OLIVER:] Hey, no matter how wrong this is, We can't let despair win. I remember you mentioned About a demon dragon-- [aggressive grittiness][FOX:] I'll slam my door on it again. I won't let it come in. Fuck all this bullshit!!! All their stupid selfishness!!! Their self-destructiveness!!! That one former friend, Acting like a childish brat. No better than her oldest children. Lazy, incompetent, and careless. (Careless!!) [singing, soulful grittiness][OLIVER:] Tell me, what exactly has you pissed? What's caused you to act frustrated?? Just let it out, don't let this sit. [Pre-Chorus] What do you mean, "not meant to be"? Open up to me. What is your lost dream? You chose to not let the pain sit, I'm here. I'll support you in this. [Chorus - intense and angry singing/screaming][FOX:] ARE THEY HAPPY?!? ARE THEY HAPPY?!? They disregard my heartache. A furious burning's in my brain. I carried a cautious tiny hope, If she could find the sweethearts, I could go with her to visit them. NOW THAT'S A NOPE!!! I'm not a selfish person. I do my best to stay honest, Yet here I ammmmm, Getting a raw deal againnnnnn...! Getting a raw deal again!! AGAIN!!! [Outro, spoken coldly][NAOKI:] "Fox... That's the last time they'll upset and hurt you again..." [sung] She doesn't deserve any of this shit. I'll always defend her. I won't stand for this! Better off distancing from this family. Their decisions caused her misery. That former friend complained about unfairness, But the reality of it in this mess, It stems from her poor life choices. As we righteously raise our voices, This world will know of their sins, Their hypocrisies, and self-projections. Love, integrity, and truth still wins. Fuck their incompetence and ignorance. If they try to come around again, I swear, I'll make them regret it. Those idiots never deserved to have cats. There remains a lingering tragedy in that. Fox had never, ever done them any harm. She also made sure their snake didn't starve. They're petty as they disregard her kindness. They continue to disrespect. We won't forgive. [spoken] "We're done. Let's get out of here... Oliver, we've got to help her overcome this... Hell, she'll need all of our support."
