I Just Don't Give A Fuck
by Darth Nihlus
Lyrics
[Intro - distorted whisper, ominous synth drones, glitch stutters, distant strings swarming]
I don’t hear the warnings, I don’t see the signs
Black smoke in my lungs and a war in my mind
Cold on the surface, but the fire still burns
I learned every lesson from the bruises and burns
[Verse 1 - low, menacing rap flow, trap hi-hats, wobbling 808, sinister string swells]
I grew up where the night had teeth
Where the streetlights flickered like they feared the heat
Every smile had a blade, every handshake a test
Every promise was a coffin dressed up in a vest
I was taught to be quiet, taught to be small
Taught to bow my head when the pressure would call
But I seen too much pain to be praying for peace
Now I walk through the storm with the wolves at my feet
No sleep, no trust, just a pulse and a plan
A ghost in the frame, with a fist in my hand
They want me to fold, want me begging for grace
But I carved my own name in the dark of this place
[Pre-Chorus - tension rising, layered vocals, reversed synths, glitching percussion]
So let the fear come close
Let it crawl up my spine
I was made in the chaos
I don’t break, I multiply
When the walls start closing
And the vultures descend
I just stare in the mirror
And I do it again
[Chorus - explosive, anthemic dark rap hook, massive 808s, distorted ad-libs, cinematic strings]
I just don’t give a fuck
When the whole world’s watching me burn
I just don’t give a fuck
I took every wound and I turned
To a blade in the dark, to a spark in the dust
If they ask if I care, tell ’em no, not much
I just don’t give a fuck
No, I don’t give a fuck
[Verse 2 - colder, faster flow, glitchy staccato drums, haunting synth lead, grim atmosphere]
They talk like they know me, but they know my name
Not the nights I survived, not the weight of the chains
Not the ache in my chest when the city went numb
Not the sound of my heart when the sirens would come
I seen friends turn fake in the blink of a frame
Seen love get erased like a ghost in the rain
So I keep to myself with a blade in my grin
If the world wants a villain, then let the game begin
I don’t need a crown, I don’t need a throne
I was born in the static, I was raised in the cold
Every scar on my skin is a map to the truth
I’m the end of the rope and the proof in the proof
[Pre-Chorus - darker buildup, whispered doubles, string risers, sub-bass pressure]
So let the fear come close
Let it whisper my name
I don’t kneel to the pressure
I don’t live for the shame
When the night gets louder
And the fake ones pretend
I just laugh in the shadows
And I do it again
[Chorus - full power, layered gang vocals, heavier bass, sharper synth stabs]
I just don’t give a fuck
When the whole world’s watching me burn
I just don’t give a fuck
I took every wound and I turned
To a blade in the dark, to a spark in the dust
If they ask if I care, tell ’em no, not much
I just don’t give a fuck
No, I don’t give a fuck
[Bridge - stripped back, eerie piano, distant drones, intimate vocal with echo]
If I fall, let me fall like a king in the ash
With my eyes on the void and my foot on the gas
I was never made soft, never built to obey
I’m the shadow that stays when the light fades away
And if heaven won’t call
And if hell won’t wait
I’ll be dancing with demons at the edge of the gate
[Final Chorus - biggest release, distorted vocals, intense drums, cinematic strings, glitch breakdown]
I just don’t give a fuck
When the whole world’s watching me burn
I just don’t give a fuck
I took every wound and I turned
To a blade in the dark, to a spark in the dust
If they ask if I care, tell ’em no, not much
I just don’t give a fuck
No, I don’t give a fuck
[Outro - fading synths, fractured glitches, reverb-soaked closing line]
No, I don’t give a fuck
Let the dark take the rest
I just don’t give a...
