V6

[Intro] Are We Great Yet? Because I Just Feel Embarrassed Nationalism among nations is like racism among races. GLOOM CHILD DJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [Verse 1] Back when the days were gilded, before the guilt was building Now we only daydream of affording a house and children And the climate’s clinical, strictly political A world of ridicule, I’m feeling minuscule and critical Is it cynical to think the peak is pinnacle? Or is this pitiful display just the original? I’m over here squinting at the future like a mirage, Searching for the "good life" while I'm living in a garage. Let me ask... [Chorus] Is it great yet? Or just a weight yet? I’m looking for the magic but the slate’s wet. Same old villainy, same old sin, Just waiting for the "great" to finally kick in. Yeah, I’m checking my watch, is the Greatness here? Or is the Greatness just a case of fear? Tell me, is it great yet? Is it worth the wait? Or is "greatness" just some gristle on a dirty plate? I’m looking for the sun through the smoke and the grit, Still waiting for the "great" to finally hit. [Verse 2] Another day, another dollar, wish the dollar went farther Tariffs and taxes spose ta help, or did it make it harder? They’re selling salvation from the backseat of a Lexus While Epstein’s list of names is looking longer than Texas It’s a smokescreen, a broke dream, a woke team versus folks mean I miss when my cerebellum was only soaked in memes Now my spirit’s musty, my mind is fucked, The 24-hour news cycle got me fired up n' stuck Feelin’ like a crack fiend in a whack scene, Trying to find the vaccine for the regime. (Uh oh!) [Chorus] Is it great yet? Or just a weight yet? I’m looking for the magic but the slate’s wet. Same old villainy, same old sin, Just waiting for the "great" to finally kick in. Yeah, I’m checking my watch, is the Greatness here? Or is the Greatness just a case of fear? Tell me, is it great yet? Is it worth the wait? Or is "greatness" just some gristle on a dirty plate? I’m looking for the sun through the smoke and the grit, Still waiting for the "great" to finally hit. [Bridge] He came in preaching peace, Acting like the conflict’s deceased But now he’s releasing the beast, And we’re the ones invited to the feast He swore he’d pull the plug, said he’d shrug off the scars Now he’s dropping the rug and sending slugs to Iran From a "No War" sticker to a bomber jet flicker The rhetoric’s thicker while the blood starts to liquor The promises were lunar but the cannons came sooner Just another boomer acting like a statecraft schooner. It’s a world for the shakers and the wealthy, I’d say "Eat the Rich," but that diet isn't healthy They probably taste like leather, repressed ego, and escargot, Keep your Birkin bags, I’m doing donuts at the Target row. [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Is it great yet? Or just a weight yet? I’m looking for the magic but the slate’s wet. Same old villainy, same old sin, Just waiting for the "great" to finally kick in. Yeah, I’m checking my watch, is the Greatness here? Or is the Greatness just a case of fear? Tell me, is it great yet? Is it worth the wait? Or is "greatness" just some gristle on a dirty plate? I’m looking for the sun through the smoke and the grit, Still waiting for the "great" to finally hit. [Outro] Is it great yet? Check the pulse, check the stats... is it great yet? I’ve been standing in the lobby... Waiting for the "Great" to show its face. (Are we there yet?) (I think I missed the bus.)
