  • This is a song about a time I compared myself to a person who is absolutely nothing like me and feeling like the universe made me aware of their existence either to destroy me altogether or to finally stop the game of comparison once and for all…

      It's not criminal...I would guess a choice by Ms. MCRae. Spotify is criminal to small artists And that might have something to do with

    "The right flavor of fucked up" ; "with shrapnel still lodged in my head"
    Lyrical brilliance here. Those who know, know, and get it Jensen. Here's to collective soul healing!

    I feel like God has a hitman
    She’s thin and she’s blonde and she smokes
    She lives in a walkup in Flatbush
    And she’s always in on the joke
    She’s just the right flavor of fucked up
    A sick bird who still gets you hard
    I make myself into her victim
    She’s just firin’ wild in the dark
    Maybe she’ll be your karma
    Or maybe you’ll always win
    Maybe God don’t need to hire a hitman
    For me to die for you again
    God has a hitman, I’ve seen her
    He designed her just for me
    She’s everything I never was, so
    She’s all that you wished I could be
    She writes you as a gentleman
    And I’m eating it up like a fool
    Like I didn’t already have you
    Like I’m not still cleaning the wounds
    And maybe she’ll be your karma
    Or maybe you’ll always win
    Maybe God don’t need to hire a hitman
    For me to die for you again
    Hope I’m not the only one walkin’
    With shrapnel still lodged in my head
    Hope you feel half of what I did
    I hope she leaves you for dead
    One day God won’t try to test me
    With hitmen with fine golden hair
    Yeah, maybe she’ll give you your karma
    But one day I won’t even care

    Stunning. This is how you do romantic rival songs. Not a touch of misogyny from you. Just pointing out his. She’s poetry as much as you and he are. It’s so damn refreshing and artful. And that’s just the lyrics. Your voice elevates this to a prayer even though you make a resolution without gods mercy.
