Liner Notes

#protest #satire #sinister
So this was my attempt to share feelings about somebody who remains nameless. it could apply to 1 or 2 people in power at the moment. This one features a sinister whispering in the refrain. Its a departure for Tsp to put out an angry protest song... but why not?

Lyrics

When I look at you I see
You’re like a vigilante
You take everything that you need
You don’t ask or ever say please
Vigilante
You always stand out in the crowd
Your always up there and talkin loud
if people get in your way
You just push them all away

You take the law into your hands
with no regard for your fellow man
You only ask what’s in it for you
that’s the only thing you’ll do

Vigilante
You think you are above the law
you think you’re a man without flaw
Someday their gonna bring you down
everyone knows you’re just a clown

You’re a liar and a thief
and you got a lot of beefs
you never let the facts
get in the way of how you act

Vigilante
You’re a narcissist its clear
you re never far from the mirror
you like everyone to think
That you’re Breath doesn’t even stink

You’re only in it for yourself
everyone else can go to hell
you got generational wealth
don’t give a damn bout anyone else

I like the riff/lick, I can hear it with an overdriven guitar paired with a synth. The whispered lyric is a nice touch too - enjoyed the lyrics.
It’s always good to experiment with things you wouldn’t normally do!
