paroles de chanson Chimera - Saleka

Sometimes I fall, just to recall
That no one is catching me
Sometimes I run from everyone
Just to save what's left of me
What's left of me

And everyday is a white lie
I've been holding my head high
But it feels like a disguise

Too long letting the heat rise
Covering my eyes
This is a thin line baby
A thin line, a thin line baby
Its time to face me

You have unleashed a chimera
The fire she breathes
It ain't evanescent
And I think she's getting a little bit sick
Of the taste of acceptance

I'll burn your blazing world
Write out for you what I'm worth
I'm not your Teflon girl
So don't try to break me
If you can't take me

You can find me in the pharaoh's lighthouse
Taking lives out
Defending my crown
I'm not a fortress for you to cross
When you are lost
You won't stay standing on my ground

You don't get to sanctify yourself no
Preaching to me when I didn't ask for help
Like I'm another shiny thing up on your shelf no

I can see through you
I can see through you
Your feigning accomplishments
Arrogance never merited
Call me a heretic
But the evidence, where is it?

You have unleashed a chimera
The fire she breathes
It ain't evanescent
And I think she's getting a little bit sick
Of the taste of acceptance

I'll burn your blazing world
Write out for you what I'm worth
I'm not your Teflon girl
So don't try to break me
If you can't take me

Oooh-oh
If you can't take me
If you can't take me no

Stepping out of reticence
Liberation from within
Haven't been in hiding since
Listen for the resonance
It's only a matter of time now

I'm done keeping vigil
In atavistic war
I don't wanna give love
In silence anymore
Cataclysmic company
Knocking at my door
I will tell them come for me
Let Chimera roar
