Intro]
Yeah… yeah, I know.
Go ahead. Get the jokes out.
"The beard's fake."
"The dye job’s cheap."
Whatever, man… you don’t know me.
[Verse 1]
I’m John fuckin Econ-uh-mous, they clown me like some side bit,
Dye drip in the sink, I can’t lie, yeah, I tried it.
When your squad full of killers who flex like gods,
You do whatever just to not look odd.
Peacemaker talk shit, Harcourt stone cold,
Vigilante wired like he never had a soul.
Murn kept secrets, butterflies in his chest,
And I’m the dude in the van just doing my best.
I’m tired of being the one they laugh at in the back,
Like I ain’t got rage, like I can’t go black.
They never saw the nights with the bottle and regret,
Trying to figure out why the world ain’t gave me nothing yet.
[Hook]
So yeah, I dyed my beard — the mirror don’t judge,
You would too if life hit you with enough sludge.
Call me useless again — see who ends up gory,
Ask the gorilla what happened — chainsaw glory.
[Verse 2]
I ain’t built like Peacemaker, I ain’t bred for war,
But I’m loyal to the bone, I’m the last one at the door.
I patched wounds, tracked targets, cleaned blood from the floor,
Held secrets so heavy they cracked my core.
You ever look in their eyes when they kill with ease?
When the world breaks rules and your conscience bleeds?
But they still need me — I keep the gears right,
No mission succeeds without the man who types.
Call me the punchline — fuck it — laugh then choke,
I’ve carried dead weight till my backbone broke.
And when the monster roared, no one else stood,
But I revved that saw — and I fucking understood.
[Bridge]
They only cheer heroes coated in blood,
But who logs the intel so they don’t get crushed?
Who cleans the mess when the guns unload?
Who lives in the aftermath while the legends explode?
[Hook]
So yeah, I dyed my beard — the mirror don’t judge,
You would too if life hit you with enough sludge.
Call me useless again — see who ends up gory,
Ask the gorilla what happened — chainsaw glory.
[Outro]
Name’s John Econ-uh-mous, say it with respect,
I earned my scars — I ain’t done yet.
Laugh all you want — I keep receipts,
Side character? Nah — I stay in the scene.
