A Biased View
Duotang Lyrics

Ba ba ba ba
The song starts with a series of repeated syllables that don't convey any significant meaning.

If you don't mind
The singer politely asks for permission to speak his mind and share his thoughts.

I'd like to spill my mind
The singer wants to express his thoughts and feelings in a candid, cathartic manner.

Jealous words of you
The artist admits to feeling envious and resentful of someone else, whose success and happiness highlight his own failures and struggles.

Followed by this glue
The artist adds a metaphorical element to his confession, comparing his resentful words and feelings to some kind of sticky substance that follows him around and keeps him trapped in a negative mindset.

'Cause you've got it down
The singer admits that the person he's jealous of seems to be doing everything right, and that his success and happiness appear effortless.

The world revolves around
The singer suggests that the person he's jealous of has a skewed perspective on reality, where everything and everyone is orbiting around him or her, and catering to his or her needs and desires.

Your dreams and...
The artist doesn't finish his sentence, but it's implied that he believes the person he's jealous of is so self-centered and egotistical that he or she only cares about his own goals, dreams, and values.

But how long is this going to last
The artist raises a rhetorical question, wondering if the person he's jealous of will ever face any setbacks, struggles, or failures, or if he will keep succeeding and thriving indefinitely.

Everything always works out for you [Ba ba ba]
The artist repeats a line that reinforces his sense of envy and bitterness, suggesting that the person he's jealous of never has to face any obstacles or adversity, and that everything in life is handed to him on a silver platter.

Even though my world is waiting true [Ba ba ba]
The singer contrasts his own experiences and feelings with those of the person he's jealous of, acknowledging that his life is not as fortunate, privileged, or easy, but still feeling resentful and dejected.

Everything comes up roses for you
The artist uses a metaphor that implies that the person he's jealous of enjoys a life that's filled with beauty, joy, and happiness, without any thorns or hardships.

And pushed aside
The singer suggests that he's been ignored, neglected, or marginalized by the person he's jealous of, as his envy and bitterness prevent him from forming a meaningful relationship or connection with him.

By all purpose pride
The singer criticizes the person he's jealous of for being too proud and arrogant, and letting his ego and sense of self-importance guide his actions and attitudes.

'Cause you're filled with pride and purpose
The singer elaborates on his criticism of the person he's jealous of, linking his excessive pride to his sense of purpose and direction, which he believes is misguided or misplaced.

But pride is a vile disease
The artist offers a general observation about the nature of pride, suggesting that it's not only negative but also pathological and harmful, as it can cloud one's judgment, disrupt one's relationships, and lead to hubris and downfall.

And I'm wasting my time
The artist acknowledges that his jealousy and resentment are counterproductive and self-destructive, as they prevent him from being happy and productive, and distract him from his own goals and aspirations.

And I'm falling behind
The singer suggests that his envy and bitterness have put him in a disadvantageous position, where he's lagging behind the person he's jealous of, and struggling to catch up or keep up with him.

And I'm losing my mind
The singer exaggerates his mental state, implying that his jealousy and resentment are driving him crazy, and affecting his sanity and well-being.

And if I could
The artist uses a hypothetical scenario to express his anger and frustration, suggesting that if he had the power or opportunity, he would confront the person he's jealous of and challenge his values and beliefs.

I swear to you I would
The artist intensifies his hypothetical scenario by using a dramatic and solemn oath, suggesting that he's deeply committed to his cause, and willing to risk everything to make his point.

Rip down your fabric cover
The artist continues his hypothetical scenario by using a destructive and violent imagery, suggesting that he wants to expose the person he's jealous of as a fraud or a fake, and reveal his true nature or motives.

And reveal your...
The singer stops his sentence abruptly, leaving the listener to imagine what he would reveal or uncover about the person he's jealous of, and reinforcing the sense of anticipation, tension, and mystery.

Even though I come from a biased view [Ba ba ba]
The artist adds a twist to his lyrics, admitting that his entire perspective is distorted by his own bias and prejudice, and that his jealousy and resentment may not be objectively justified.
