They're Gonna Try to Assassinate Me
Resisting Fate: Danny Sullivan's Anthem on Evading Manipulation
Lyrics
Get your mind right
Encouragement to focus and align one's thoughts.
It'll happen sometime
Assurance that a certain event will occur eventually.
Never know when the time is mine
Uncertainty about when one's time for something significant will come.
There's no closure in this life
Life lacks resolution or finality.
Try to make a change
Suggesting an attempt to bring about change.
That's against the game
Resistance to societal norms or expectations.
Put you in your place
Asserting dominance or control over someone.
You gotta stay the same
Emphasis on maintaining one's true self despite external pressures.
You know they're coming for you
Awareness of impending threats or challenges.
You know they're coming for you
-Guess I take the blame
Accepting responsibility or blame for a situation.
For everything that came
Taking accountability for the consequences of past actions.
Once you light the flame
Initiating a significant event or change.
They try to burn your name
Facing attempts to damage one's reputation or identity.
You know they're coming for you
Reiteration of the awareness of impending threats.
You know they're coming for you
-Looking back, all the signs were there
Reflecting on missed signs and lack of awareness.
I didn't see, I didn't care
Disregard or indifference towards certain cues or warnings.
They make the rules, I should have been aware
Realization of being subject to unfair rules or circumstances.
I wish the game we played was fair
Expressing a desire for a fairer game or situation.
They manipulate the past
Acknowledging manipulation of historical events.
Every day on their broadcast
Regular manipulation through media or communication.
Anything to keep from critical mass
Anything to prevent a critical mass or significant change.
I hope I'm wrong with my forecast (But I don't know)
Expressing uncertainty about the accuracy of predictions.
Try to make a change
Reiteration of attempting change against societal norms.
That's against the game
Resistance to conformity or established patterns.
Put you in your place
Asserting control or influence over others.
You gotta stay the same
Emphasis on staying true to oneself despite external pressures.
You know they're coming for you
Continued awareness of imminent threats or challenges.
You know they're coming for you
-Guess I take the blame
Acceptance of blame or responsibility for outcomes.
For everything that came
Taking responsibility for the consequences of past actions.
Once you light the flame
Initiating a significant event or change, potentially with consequences.
They try to burn your name
Facing attempts to damage one's reputation or identity.
You know they're coming for you
Reiteration of the awareness of impending threats.
You know they're coming for you
