Текст песни Intro (It's Still Us) - Giovanni Piazza

Look
I'm gonna need you to kill your expectations
Every single one
Because what we've been making isn't "Lo-Fi "
Or whatever you've been thinking
This is musical growth and experimentation
Lyricism isn't staying stripped to the basics
I'm messing with some new flows
Never the same tricks
But this is still us
I promise, that is never changing
What you're about to listen to
Is where our brain's been
I'm talking about love
Cause I can't escape it
Doubts, I can't erase them
And sound just might save me
Cause music is my safe place
This is where He shapes me
Self, I'm killing my hatred
Self-Help, therapy's amazing
Shelf me but never play me
If you don't respect what we're doing lately
We are done caring about your opinions
This isn't for you so don't give yourself credit!
This is for us to prove to ourselves music is in our blood
And that we know how to use it
I'm sick of knowing you think I'm not gifted
I tried to believe you but God tells me different
And so does The Peasantry,
They keep on listening and growing the fanbase man,
This is ridiculous!
When I say something, these people will listen!
And when I share hope man, these kids really feel it!
What joy do you get from ignoring statistics?
My music can help people, stay out my business
If you're gonna listen to judge me
If you're just gonna hate me and shun me
If you claim you really love me
If you're friends with me
Know what I've done, please
How do you claim to support me through everything
But never listen to where most of my heart and energy goes?
This IS everything!
This is my legacy
If I died tomorrow, it's what's left of me
This is how I view the world
But it's also how I hope to help change it,
Not even on a big scale
But even just in one person makes this worth it!
And I promise you, listening's worth it!
I promise you, living is worth it!
I promise you, you have a purpose
And everything I ever make is to prove it!
Cause look at who I am today!
Just look at how much I have changed!
With divine intervention I'm saved
My friends and my family carry my legs!
And I'm here, my voice in your ears!
Giovanni is too, can you hear him?
This stranger is genius,
It's clear that this man knows how to write man,
I'm serious
So please
Kill your expectations
Sit back
Enjoy our revelations
Even we didn't predict our new creations
It's almost like we didn't even do this
The music made it
