“Born to Fail” seems to be dissing Tilian’s old band Tides of Man and possibly former Dance Gavin Dance clean vocalist Jonny Craig.
The most obvious example is when Tilian sings “Give me substance, give me something,” which is a line in the Tides Of Man song “Knowing That You’ve Already Arrived”.
...
[Intro: Jon Mess]
Only bangers from now on
Only angry mental moans
You fool, I'm rich
Splattered the bag
Emptied the crypt
You fool, I'm rich
Flap like a flag
Scripted to flip
[Verse 1: Tilian]
How long could you keep up with all of it?
Before you jacked too many licks and caught something you couldn't kick? (Couldn't kick)
It's no surprise you came and begged me for a second chance
Pathetic, hat in hand now that I'm in demand
[Pre-Chorus: Tilian]
Give me substance, give me something
[Chorus: Tilian]
This is the song you wish you'd wrote
Before you proved to the world you're a fucking joke
Before you had your chance and fucking choked
Before you tried to do me over
Honestly, you've always known I'd prevail
It's biology and you were born to fail
[Verse 2: Jon Mess & Tilian]
Facts, just say it
No, you don't need to know
Feels, display them
Everyone's the goat
Now I'm around the world
Shredding for a full ovation
And you can trash my reputation
As you enjoy your long vacation
[Pre-Chorus: Tilian]
Give me substance, give me something
[Chorus: Tilian]
This is the song you wish you'd wrote
Before you proved to the world you're a fucking joke
Before you had your chance and fucking choked
Before you tried to do me over
Honestly, you've always known I'd prevail
It's biology and you were born to fail
[Bridge: Jon Mess]
Ditch it fist bastard
Cancel all your fans
They're passed out in the pasture
Sucking up the spam
You look just like a person
But missing all the man
When life becomes a burden
Just pull a fucking scam
[Outro: Tilian & Jon Mess]
You were born to fail
Goddamn
You were born to fail
Just pull a fucking scam
You were born to fail
Goddamn
You were born to fail
Just pull a fucking scam
