Narcissist
Sage Francis

I don't look at myself in the mirror because I'm a narcissist
I simply like to watch myself exist
(Hhh)
Now I'm in a fog and mist
(Hhh)
Now my reflection is anonymous, ponder this

I've seen a reflection of my soul in the store window
Caught in limbo 'cause I was dressed all in Timbo's
(Timberland)
Having vivid fantasies of playing Polo with Ralph Lauren on a Tommy Hill
And my paper thin spirit was still grieving from the Versace kill

In Florida, opened the door to the store and I walked through the corridor
To see they had a blow out sale on Nautica
But I've always been a Lord of the button down Flies?
And being they were half-priced, I just passed 'em on by looking for Levis

But Guess what? All my favorite clothing lines and hip designs
Were being liquidized and it made me sick to my eyes
I don't understand...when I had no ends...the price was quick to rise
I'd buy a pair of trends even if they didn't fit my size

Purchase a surplus of fads from merchants whose ads
Made these cheap ass fabrics that were so worthless and sad
Just look priceless, they used unethical devices
To attack my sense of self-worth during my prepubescent crisis

It fed into my insecurities, so instead of being righteous
I want everyone to see me like this
Kid, it's all about who looks the nicest
Ice is falling off my Rolie
(Rolex)
Onto my body, shoot
I hope to hell it doesn't melt and ruin my Armani suit

While I'm sweatin' this, some kid who doesn't got any loot
Is buying my necklace
Along with my same exact khakis and army boots
What? This is blasphemous
Since Adidas tried changing its logo
There ain't been nothing as wack as this

It's probably a stunt being pulled by Animal Rights activists
Because of all that Third World country garbage but I'm a pacifist
So while these monkeys sweat
Over my name brands that exchange hands
From enslaved lands, I wonder if I'm the same man

Without reward for what I bought but can't still afford
This is the type of self-realization that might have killed the Lord
I didn't mind working for free as a walking billboard
But now I want my money back as my ice spilled and poured

Onto the floor I did see a distorted reflection of my Nike hat
Now I don't know how others might react
For me it was an unsightly act that helped me get my psyche back
I stood 5 feet back, afraid that it might strike me like shacklack clack

You think I'm kidding? Think it's no big thing?
What I saw made my heart hurt, stomach turn, throat burn
Teeth cringe, spine tingle, and ribs sting
I noticed that the swoosh symbol was nothing but a whip in mid-swing

I don't look at myself in the mirror because I'm a narcissist
I simply like to watch myself exist
(Hhh)
Now I'm in a fog and mist
(Hhh)
Now my reflection is anonymous, ponder this
