Miss Black America Personal Politics Lyrics

Personal Politics Lyrics

It's not intent that makes us liars,

But desire to please

And be
more than we ever could be

In a million years

And all our failures
are demons

We must conquer

If we are to be strong

Yeah



It's not just the looks that make these eyes sore 

It's the
lifestyle, baby

Not everybody gets to win

But I will win

'Cause I can win

Yeah, I will beat this thing for you

I will
conquer

I will learn to be strong



But it's just noise that
counts for nothing

Personal politics:

Empty words

It's just
words,

Strong words that make us liars

Oh, we do it every time

Hack, hack away at your demons

But they still eat you alive



Now you've seen more than you wanted to know

You use staples to keep
your eyes closed

People talk

Yeah, people talk and talk

They
go on and on and on?

But it's just noise that counts for nothing

Personal politics:

Empty words

It's just pointless noise that
makes us liars

Oh, we do it every time

I'd do anything for
self-control

Sometimes



Death to all liars.

Death to us
all.
