Would You Kindly - JT Music, Divide

A masquerade has just begun

Despite the party being none too lively

Unlock your cage and take a step outside it

Follow my guidance… would you kindly?

Who would sign their own death certificate?

The kind that no one dared to question if legitimate?

The same man who ran a contraband syndicate

Just you wait with bated breath — his resurrection’s imminent

Had to burn the past, to invest in futuristics

And turn the orphans of dystopia into a business

Big brother should’ve kept his eye on little sisters

But now any witnesses are swimmin' with the fishes

I started from the top, took a plunge to the bottom

Waited 'till my name became long forgotten

Remade myself among the paupers, dropped into their Sodom

This impoverished populace — back to the top I’ve brought 'em

Taught 'em how to topple corruption — find you a lighter

Ignite a revolution, you can fight fire with fire!

Why would i try to build an empire for myself?

When I can just take one away from someone else

If you wonder who’s entitled to the sweat of your brow

Stop workin' so hard, I’ll get you a towel

I rejected Ryan’s message, but I took his keys

Will the real Fontaine please stand up?

Don’t look at me!

Maybe you should’ve asked nicer, try a «Would You Kindly?»

Grab a map, or an Atlas — you’ll never find me

So much Adam and Plasmids writhing inside me

Break the Great Chain weighin' us down — now I’m free!

Pray the voices are not delusions

This city’s twisted nature — echoed in these stains

And your choices — far from illusion

Embrace the searing pain of chaos in your veins

Forget identity

A concept that is dead to me

Much unlike destiny

I sculpted what you’re meant to be

Our latest visitor’s about to hit the deep end

Thanks to a plane crash — ain’t that convenient?

An angel from above, but in the depths he’ll find devils

How far will he sink?

I’ll bring him down to my level

No one knows Jack — my master plan can’t get out, this

Ain’t a wonderland you stumbled into, Alice

I’ve been playin' around in your egg salad

How did you think I got Ryan’s crown without a ballot?

I’m here to stay, but I ain’t campaignin'

I’ll take the reins, Rapture needs maintaining

The city’s leaking, Adam and Eve are drainin'

So grab a shortwave radio, I won’t leave you hangin'

That is unless it’s at the tip of a rivet or from a noose

Better than being the errand boy for that floozy mother Goose

You ain’t useless to me, you’re my ace in the hole

But you got deuces and threes, yet you ain’t gonna fold?

Got you barking like a cocker spaniel on my command

Speaking of dogs, you recall what you’ve done with those hands?

So when you see those little freaks, kill their daddies and grab 'em

What’s a little brat to you, mook?

Harvest their Adam!

Cuz next to that, cash is nothing if you wanna be rich

Get your hands on a tonic, this is not a fraudulent pitch

Remember ammo ain’t so plentiful, you don’t wanna run outta clips

Until you get to Ryan’s office and kill that son of a bitch

I’m a man of many faces

But I’m calling off the masquerade

Underneath this act, I’m faceless

You’re just a performer, and I’ve cast the play

Curtains drawn, face the crowd

Know your lines, say them loud

Play your part, make us proud

Hear applause and take a bow

Nice work boyo, I’ll try to make your death quick

They say, never mix business with friendship

But you’ve been the best partner that I ever worked with

I treated you more like a father, than even yours did

I’ll run Rapture tits to toes now that I got the clout

Any problem with that, scrub?

Come on up, we’ll slug it out!

Think you got power?

You’re nothin' but twenty watts

I’m the lights of Broadway, I brought a mob and I’m it’s boss

Who told you that you’re special?

Born to do great things?

Tattooed your brain with memories, then ripped away your wings?

Who showed you what you was and all the wonders you’d accomplish?

If you don’t call that family, I don’t know what is

My name’s Atlas, I aim to keep you alive

Till Frank Fontaine rises, I’ll sweep you aside

My name’s Atlas, I aim to keep you alive

Till Frank Fontaine rises, I’ll sweep you aside
