Confess
Veela Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Get comfy, sit down, take off your shoes
I'm a Confessor, my job is just to get at the juice
By talking to you, or anyone who needs me to prove
"I'm innocent!", yeah that's what the last guy said
Never trust a bitch who wants to get in your head
That's what you called me, right?
When you looked at my body, humming and ha-ing
So come on, tell me all about you
You've done wrong, I want to hear it out of you
You're so strong, why're you shaking in your boots
So come on, because I want to hear it out of you
I get it you didn't do it
You're sitting here right in front of me waiting for me to prove it
So sit back, relax and enjoy the cold
Of my icy little hand on your forehead
Slipping in your head, into your thoughts
I've got my eyes shut waiting for the truth to come out
Sit your body down, still to your head
I've got to find out if you're saying what you really did
Be intimidated by what you see
There's a hell a lot of you and only one of me
Your freedom as a man depends upon what I see
So terrified is really what you ought to be
"Wait, isn't that the way you said it would be?
Chilling me out, everything catered to me?
Something isn't right, I wasn't told you were waiting for me
Baiting me, on top of all of that, you're berating me?"
Listen, something's gotta change, baby
It's never gonna be the way they were saying, baby
And I'm stuck in between
Listen to right, listen to you, or listen to me
So tell me baby, how you gonna change it
Is it all a big lie, gonna rearrange it
If you're hiding something big, I guess you better bring it
But you can't fool me, I'm gonna make you famou$
And I don't care what you say
I'm gonna get the truth either way
And don't be so quick to call a woman a name
Because the one you're talking shit controls your fate
Slipping in your head, into your thoughts
I've got my eyes shut waiting for the truth to come out
Sit your body down, still to your head
I've got to find out if you're saying what you really did
Be intimidated by what you see
There's a hell a lot of you and only one of me
Your freedom as a man depends upon what I see
So terrified is really what you ought to be

A Rap Reply: Under Protest and Duress
[Lyrics delivered over the same beat.]
A postman delivers parcels same color as your heart
Glass house full of smooth stones ya been collecting from the start
Transparent walls betraying plot, fully exposing your part
Whispers carry far from lips that are pursed
Hyper-vigilant mind-state both gifted and cursed
Bombshell to drop, so please tell me who fires first?
You’ll wish you were hearsed
Rather than face the public disgrace so tart
Cunning linguist, this is my art
Warning shots fired, recommending about faced
Orientation and movement, because I’ve got you out-paced
Playing oh so sweet, your essence is wormwood, talking about taste
Warning expired, last chance for your steps to be re-traced
Your turn, the board is set
Better think thrice, thoroughly thrilling price buys regret
You can’t move twice, mistakes won’t be graced
Master of the game a competitor has never out-placed
Begging the question forces the thought
Hiding behind false memories with the truth you forgot
Preparation and due diligence all for naught
I have no need or patience to learn how you end
Frightened and poised to defend
Against my prismatic consciousness yet it is you who will bend
A lesson life brings for which you shall be taught
Serious matter as ne’er a soul lived whom life did not rend
“There ya go again flautin’ how you always have control
Arrogant, self-righteous, grandiosity that’s how you roll
Acting like it’s your bridge and I owe you some kind of toll
How terribly fitting, narrowly admitting you’re a sad sorry troll”
Hocus pocus the focus is on control of the self
Smoke and mirrors can’t obscure the tome on the shelf
A page from the record is all that I glean
You can listen to you; you can ignore our history
You can’t afford the time to repeat the same blunder
Lightning can strike before announced by its thunder
Dumbstruck, paralyzed with surprise and left to wonder
At this point it should be no mystery
Fate told by stars however whispery
You can bark and bite, put up a helluva fight
Just being louder doesn’t indicate who is right
Before you force my hand, fully understand my might
Begging the question forces the thought
Hiding behind false memories with the truth you forgot
Preparation and due diligence all for naught
I have no need or patience to learn how you end
Frightened and poised to defend
Against my prismatic consciousness yet it is you who will bend
A lesson life brings for which you shall be taught
Serious matter as ne’er a soul lived whom life did not rend

How does one person consistently always get better with every release without fail, like damn, Amazing song!
@Veelamusic

@TheJjGammer
I have no idea how to say how much I adore your voice without sounding creepy... kinda like now
@xWhytephoenix
I love the ethereal, somewhat mysterious songs as much as the cold harsh blatant truth songs such as this. Well written, incredibly toned throughout the lyrics, and that beat was phenomenal. Keep up the awesome works Veels!! Spoiling us with so many songs in a short time =D
