lyrics

I believe that certain things are meant to be
While some are forced and lack authenticity
As long as they like it and as long as they like me
Then I don’t mind a small bit of duplicity

I’m not gonna keep it real
For I know it has mass appeal
I’m not gonna keep it real
For I know it has mass appeal

It’s much easier to do it as they say
Instead of having to come up with your own way
Trying to be someone who they will accept
Might have self-resentment as a side effect

If you find yourself in a mass of individuals
Then be a copycat or be original
I am not the one who you think I am
But you won’t know ‘cause of your short attention span

I’m not gonna keep it real
For I know it has mass appeal
I’m not gonna keep it real
For I know it has mass appeal

The antihero that is inside you and me
Still has his share of superficiality
Roll with the punches and just play along
So that you end up somewhere you don’t belong

Now maybe I should stop being a hypocrite
But I’m afraid that I might end up liking it
Now might be the time for a mask reveal
But I’m afraid that I might lose my mass appeal

I’m not gonna keep it real
For I know it has mass appeal
I’m not gonna keep it real
For I know it has mass appeal

Going back to the pioneers of metal music and putting a modern melodic spin on it by injecting influences from the broad spectrum of today’s music, all while striving innovation, makes MONARCHIST a true 2020’s heavy rock band. ... more
