๐ Lyrics
I've showed you my darkness
Fed you my flesh
You made anthems of my tears
I'm no super human
I can't save you and save my self
I'm no super human
Super
I built my ideals on standards
Standards I learned as an infant and then imagined my own
Like most curious teenagers no
I watched my peers walk a path far different to mine
And I grew more confident with my own solitude
Politics, love, manhood and sexuality I discovered like a blind lamb in the hands of a unfamiliar shepherd
With coloured pigmentation you must accept that your historically pivotal leaders will more than likely be killed
With darker pigmentation you become an example of exoticism under that western microscope
Elements of your identity appropriated and sold back to you
Sold back to you with less than clever tag lines
And through it all you must smile and dance
Yeah keep dancing
Knowing the revenge will taste so much sweeter once you've made it
Fed you my flesh
You made anthems of my tears
I'm no super human
I can't save you and save my self
I'm no super human
Super
I built my ideals on standards
Standards I learned as an infant and then imagined my own
Like most curious teenagers no
I watched my peers walk a path far different to mine
And I grew more confident with my own solitude
Politics, love, manhood and sexuality I discovered like a blind lamb in the hands of a unfamiliar shepherd
With coloured pigmentation you must accept that your historically pivotal leaders will more than likely be killed
With darker pigmentation you become an example of exoticism under that western microscope
Elements of your identity appropriated and sold back to you
Sold back to you with less than clever tag lines
And through it all you must smile and dance
Yeah keep dancing
Knowing the revenge will taste so much sweeter once you've made it
