-------------------------------Info------------------------------ Artifice is the twelfth track off of my debut studio album, and it begins the fifth chapter of the album's concept titled "Interior War Of Two". It is a collab with my both alter ego which is my female OC (which I play). ------------------------------Concept-------------------------Artifice is about the fight between the bad half of their conscience aka. Persona D. and the good half of their conscience aka. Persona L. The word uses "it" referring to Persona L. (P.S. GEP plays the character). But the protag did meet with Persona L after TMLA. The Persona L gets on its last nerve in the verse 2 and outro, most likely due to the protag rubbing off on Persona L. ---------------------------Composition----------------------- I was inspired by the music of the Black Dresses (mostly Ada Rook) and music such as trap and hardcore punk (which can be heard in the post-chorus.) ------------------------------Le Lyrics------------------------- (Intro: 10-32-42) Alright, Ms. L Which you’re boutta take after this one You’ve got some explaining to do, missy [Reversed/Noise] (Verse 1: 10-32-42, Green Eyed Pride) What on earth have you done To my little doodad You’ve messed up him real good How does that make you feel? Real good You’re so sick in the head You may as well have kicked him in the head You look like you’d go to bed At 9PM at the latest Kozz made it, run it back (Pre-Chorus: 10-32-42) I must take him back It’s you I must attack Tough-mindness, that’s what you lack I won’t let you hack HIS MIND (Chorus: KKosmiKK) All that was done and said Was it all just artifice? Between the lines, haven’t been read There’s things I have missed They’re tugging on both of my arms Oh, how I’m sick of this Everything that has worked like a charm Was it all artifice? (Verse 2: Green_Eyed_Pride) You’re the one brainwashing him Earlier, I’ve talked to him Go on now, get some help He needs it too, as well Himself, he gotta recollect Quit messing with his intellect It’s plain as a pikestaff All you do is laugh like… (a squealing 75-year-old calf) (Pre-Chorus: Green_Eyed_Pride) I must take him back It’s you I must attack Morality, that’s what you lack And I won’t let you hack HIS MIND (Chorus: KKosmiKK) All that was done and said Was it all just artifice? Between the lines, haven’t been read There’s things I have missed They’re tugging on both of my arms Oh, how I’m sick of this Everything that has worked like a charm Might be artifice (Post-Chorus: 10-32-42, Green_Eyed_Pride) Go No, YOU go Go No, YOU go GO NO, YOU go GO NO, YOU GO (Last line repeated 4x) (Bridge: KKosmiKK) I hope it doesn’t last long I don’t know who’s in the wrong I know deep down, it can’t this way all day They can’t just keep yapping ‘Till there’s nothing left to say (Pre-Chorus 2: KKosmiKK) They can’t just keep yapping ‘Till there’s nothing left to say ‘Till there’s nothing left… (Chorus: KKosmiKK) All that was done and said Was it all just artifice? Between the lines, haven’t been read There’s things I have missed They’re tugging on both of my arms Oh, how I’m sick of this Everything that has worked like a charm Was it all just artifice? Credits to Allah, none is this could've been possible without him.
