National Anthem Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Labeled a radical
'Cause I don't follow no guidelines
Detroit Red running through my veins
By any means, I gotta get mine
I can see the panic in your eyes
Tell me how to be, I'm terrified
This the new national anthem
Don't move, put your hands up
Came off the Amistad with the glow
Hate the melanin, love selling it
Even Matt Healy let y'all know
But anyways, you know what is
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't trust nobody
Duct tape on your third eye
I know y'all watching
Plotting on how to get one by nighttime
[Chorus]
It's the new national anthem
They tell you don't move and just put your hands up
I know what I do
I don't need your answers
Put a price on my head
I might throw a tantrum
(The national anthem)
It's the new national anthem (Hey)
They tell you don't move and just put your hands up (The new national anthem)
I know what I do
I don't need your answers
Put a price on my head (Hey)
I might throw a tantrum (The new national anthem)
[Verse 2]
How I'm the crazy one
When you the hella Fugazi one?
Bad karma stacked to the ceiling
But you good 'cause you run the building
This the new national anthem
Robots 'bout to make a killing
This the new national anthem
Parents pray for your children
This feel like liberation
This feel like liberation
When I act up, I'm a dead man
But the world love a villain
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't trust nobody
Duct tape on your third eye
I know y'all watching
Plotting on how to get one by nighttime
[Chorus]
It's the new national anthem
They tell you don't move and just put your hands up
I know what I do
I don't need your answers
Put a price on my head
I might throw a tantrum
(The national anthem)
It's the new national anthem (Hey)
They tell you don't move and just put your hands up (The new national anthem)
I know what I do
I don't need your answers
Put a price on my head (Hey)
I might throw a tantrum (The new national anthem)
[Outro]
The new national—
The new national an—
The new national an—
The new national anthem
