Not satisfied as advertised
Got an appetite grab a mic
Hold it tight hold this life
Loosely like it ain't mine
On the dotted line that's how you're defined
Sacrifice pay the price bet that we earning it
You want the authentic or just the alternative
Same conversation next generation wants validation sorely mistaken
Artistic integrity comes secondary
From strict parenting to culturally savvy
Got that clean-cut image want to push the limits
Get you a publicist explain what the bubble is
Try and be provocative don't want to contradict
Feeling the tension of personal brand management
Swore all that mattered was making a difference
But if they're no paying attention then that's not good for business

What do you know
Out with the old like a clearance aisle
Guessing we were really never that in style
Up in the party like who are we
You don't know yourself not hardly
Not the same thing as the mainstream
What do you know still rocking it digital apocalypse
Jonathan Ruebonic fresh start like autumn is
Everything changes that's what your option is
Let me be clear without stating the obvious
Nothing's original borrowing influence
Payback is just my two cents
Held these songs for five years so they should fit right in
The dippity-doer done did it again
And I am just sitting at the exit ready for what's next
One step ahead to keep the future in check
Come correct like I aced it perfectly placed it
Find me in between a snare and bass kick
Remember me like oh hey it's
The innovation took place long before you ever heard it on the airwaves
Now don't confuse that with trend setters
And don't confuse them with attention-getters
