The Declaration
Jake Tracey

[Verse]

Ladies and gentleman, listen to what you’re about to hear

A reflection, a recollection of all my doubts and fears

American Society is corrupted, peace interrupted

Racism and violence, our humanity is fucking disrupted

We live in a simple, ridiculous, fucked up generation

Excuse my honesty; it’s all part of my reputation

Speak up, and stand up, this is your emancipation

The declaration of my independence, here’s a demonstration

I live the American Dream Jay Gatsby, Tom and Daisy

My vision’s hazy, people use me, but it doesn’t phase me

Haters amaze me, it’s sick the way they try to tame me

Put me down, deem me a clown, but why should you blame me?

I’m at the top of the pinnacle, the lyrical miracle, speaking out spirituals

Don’t try to ridicule me, hysterical

Only human, human rights, fuck the separation

Here is my statement, my announcement, my declaration

Same boy from Austin, Texas all the way to San Diego

They used to build me up and crash me down like a box of Legos

I’m not the fool, I’m too cool to be underestimated

Despite the controversy of how many boys and girls I’ve dated

I advocate equality, not inequality

Fuck the math, cause 1 plus 1 equals 2, and that’s how it should be

Male or female, we all unite in the unity

That’s why we’re America, but no one will ever listen to me

I bring truth to my songs since Under Construction

After my third album, life felt like the greatest destruction

Mentally trapped, the metaphorical abduction

Rejected, neglected, devoid of seduction

I’ve lived my life in a crazy way

Skin cuts, tightropes, suicidal cabaret

A cocktail of Valium and Tylenol

I had taken the fall, and no one to call

Before I came back up, I blamed the industry

For getting the best of me, using up all of my energy

Fucked up producers ignoring my creativity

Lawsuits, decreasing sales, it impacted me

2-year hiatus, petitions and debates

On whether I should come back and face the hate

Created this album almost 2 years late

But I’m back with a vengeance, and I’m sure you’ll relate

I was born to conquer, never born to fail

But life is nothing but a fairy tale

You reap what you sow, you get what you give

I got what I wanted, a longer chance to live

Yeah, I’m sure you’ll know who I really am

When these next 19 songs are on your stereo, you’ll understand

I don’t expect any superior expectations

Just listen to the truth, this is my declaration

[Chorus]

Rise up, speak out

Tell these motherfuckers what it’s all about

Act up, lash out

Fuck the haters, show ‘em we don’t play around

This is the declaration

Whoa oh oh

Wave your hands up high if you’re ready for this ride

Say, whoa oh oh

Wave your hands up high if you’re ready for this ride

Yeah
