The Lyrics

3100TH PARODY, Y'ALL! And as is my tradition, I have taken a song I parodied back when I was stupid and inexperienced and re-parody along a vaguely similar topic. Last time I decided to play with the repetition of "I am" in the verses. This time, let's...do that again, I guess, just less religious.
"I am", two words that give you confidence, what word can follow? Many sorts
Let's say that you claim your foes are the disease and then you say that you're the cure
"I am" makes one feel like a rock with nerves made out of steel
Well, at least as long as you can prove that your boast is true, or you'll be flat as a peel
So I say: go, pick a few random concepts that might fit you
And then say that you are that and plot how often you feel a badass on top

Prove the zeal of what you're standin' for
"I am the prophecy"? You won't be ignored
Make them feel what you feel at your core
"I am my legacy"? Doubt you'll be ignored

"I am" won't work with just any words, just concepts like "common sense"
You won't look too badass if you say "I am hungry", you'll just come off dense
"I am violence" sounds like fun to say, "I am violent" less so now
Not to say that it ain't true, it's just you don't use base facts as a boast, I've found
So I say: go, pick and choose any concept that might fit you
And then say at the absolute top of both your lungs that you're that, hard to flop

Time to seal in what you're standin' for
"I am the law", you'll see, you won't be ignored
It might feel a bit conceited, sure
But try "I am death", see? Doubt you'll be ignored

No, hear me out now
"I am the revolution"? That friggin' rocks
Right now, hear me out now
"I am the reinforcements"? That also rocks right now
There is real power, an unseen force
No need for a long speech to not be ignored

If you feel that it's true at your core
You will steal ev'ry scene and not be ignored
Folks might keel right over on the floor
Those two words, all you need to not be ignored
No, for real
Try it out and you'll see, you won't be ignored
Find your seal
"I am nonsense"? Well, see, that might be ignored

So many of these milestone parodies are Linkin Park, huh. Anyways, as for the next parody? Well, a thing happened on Friday, a thing that gave me an urge to go back to one of my old parody projects...
