Sit On It

Also released as: Orchestral

Verse 1

Got a letter in the mail from a desk in the city
An adjuster on a screen who ain't got no pity
He saw a little track on a Saturday night
Now he’s claiming that I’m working and I’m ready to fight
He says, "Look at that workflow, she's a highly capable woman"
While I’m just trying to heal the best way I can

Chorus

So you can take your little policy and sit on it and twist
Cross my name right off your bureaucratic list
You think a five-minute render means I'm back on the grind?
Well adjust this, buddy, you're out of your mind
You can't get blood from a stone or a ghost in the mist
So take your red tape, sit on it, and twist

Verse 2

I got some stems in the Logic, got a Mac on the desk
I was grieving for Hope, trying to handle the rest
But you're snooping my footprint like a hound on a trail
Taking all of my sorrow just to build up your tale
It took a drag and a drop and a couple of clicks
Now you're acting like I'm laying down a mountain of bricks

Bridge

You call it "executive function," I call it surviving the pain
You're crunching the numbers, just looking for gain
I built a digital defiance that you don't understand
So I'm sending this message across the whole land

Chorus

Yeah, you can take your little policy and sit on it and twist
Cross my name right off your bureaucratic list
You think a five-minute render means I'm back on the grind?
Well adjust this, buddy, you're out of your mind
You can't get blood from a stone or a ghost in the mist
So take your red tape, sit on it, and twist

Outro

Yeah, go ahead and log this one in my file.
I'll bounce the master for you.
Sit on it.
And twist.
