Yes they’ve got Linkin Park but honestly, song just feels so dull & boring. Legit no hype or anything after listening to it
Should’ve used Kingslayer of BMTH instead
Polaroid of you dancing in my room
I want to remember, I think it was about noon
It's getting harder to understand, to understand
How you felt in my hands, in my hands
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll wear a skirt for you
And I could be a pretty girl
Shut up when you want me to
And I could be a pretty girl
Won't ever make you blue
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll lose myself in you
I was so blinded by you, now I cry
Just thinking 'bout the fool that I was
I was such a fool
I'm alone now, but it's better for me
I don't need all your negativity
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll wear a skirt for you
And I could be a pretty girl
Shut up when you want me to
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll never make you blue
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll lose myself in you
Sorry I didn't kiss you
But it's obvious I wanted to
Bubble gum down my throat and it's a curse
But my luck couldn't get any worse
'Cause I swallowed the bubble gum
Oh, and these seven years will be pretty dumb
Pink flowers grow from my skin
Pepto Bismol veins and I grin
You look so nice in your shirt
It's sad because it just hurts
I'd do anything for you
But would you do that for me, too?
'Cause I swallowed the bubble gum
Oh, and these seven years will be pretty dumb
Oh, pink flowers grow from my skin
Oh, Pepto Bismol veins and I grin
Oh
Oh
Oh
"What you don't know" the legend goes "can't hurt you"
If you only want to live and die in fear
They tell us to believe just half of what we see
And absolutely nothing that we hear
Resist the twisted truth, no matter what the cost
Supplant the rights with wrongs inside our heads
Outlawing all the questions to the answers
That no one likes when someone ends up dead
Dystopia
Dystopia
Dystopia
Dystopia
"What you don't know" the legend goes "can't hurt you"
If you only want to live and die in a cage
There's panic and there's chaos rampant in the streets
Where useless thoughts of peace are met with rage
Demoralized and overmastered people think
The quickest way to end a war is lose
Dictatorship ends starting with tyrannicide
You must destroy the cancer at its root
Dystopia
Dystopia
Dystopia
Dystopia
Tripping off the beat kinda, dripping off the meat grinder
Heat niner, pimping, stripping, soft sweet minor
China was a neat signer, trouble with the script
Digits double dipped, bubble lipped, subtle lisp midget
Borderline schizo, sort of fine tits though
Pour the wine, whore to grind, quarter to nine, let's go
Ever since ten eleven, glad she made a brethren
Then it's last down seven alligator seven
At the gates of heaven, knockin'—no answer
Slow dancer, hopeless romancer, dopest flow stanzas
Yes, no? Villain, Metal Face to Destro
Guess so, still incredible in escrow
Just say, "Ho!" I'll test the yayo
Wild West style fest, y'all best to lay low
Hey bro, DayGlo, set the bet, pay dough
Before the cheddar get away, best to get Maaco
The worst hated God who perpetrated odd favors
Demonstrated in the perforated Rod Lavers
… In all quad flavors, Lord save us
Still back in the game like Jack LaLanne
Think you know the name, don't rack your brain
On a fast track to half insane
Either in a slow beat or that the speed of "Wrath of Kane"
Laughter, pain
Hackthoo'ing songs lit, in the booth, with the best host
Doing bong hits, on the roof in the west coast
He's at it again, Mad at the pen
Glad that we win, a tad fat, in a bad hat for men
Grind the cinnamon, Manhattan warmongers
You can find the villain in satin … congas
The van screeches, the old man preaches
About the gold sand beaches, the cold hand reaches
For the old tan Ellesses …
… Jesus
Maybe lacks bit hype factor or more that "I want to be there one day" vibe like what Rise gave, but overall its good song. Really listenable outside of LoL Worlds context as well (maybe bad thing in some peoples minds). Also much rather have something like this than same giga generic pop edm style they've had for since forever. Last like 3 years have been really meh.
but yeah not the most Worlds sounding song out there, but good on its own
Linkin Park shameless cashgrab group. Paid Riot a bunch of money to perform Worlds 2024 for free promotion.
The only way this can be saved is if Riot does a second Worlds song just like FIFA did back in 2022 with Haya Haya (people involved in making that should be hunted for sport) and later made Dreamers which was at least decent.
is a classic linkin park style song between Meteora and Living Things, last year there was the discussion of whether the song of worlds should be like one of hype-epic or the style of the guest artist, because with new jeans's “Gods” does not sound like anything they have done, if you invite linkin park, do not be surprised that it sounds like linkin park...
