Disco T - God Was A Designer Lyrics

      

God Was a Designer
by Disco T

Intro
Yeah
In the beginning, there was light... and contour
Let's go

Verse 1
God was a designer, built us like dolls
Gave us lips, then sold us walls
Plastic prophets, holy flesh
Silicone sins in a tight-ass dress
Praise the knife, bend the knee
Beauty now comes surgically
Gold-plated ribs and diamond thighs
Perfection sold in a billion lies

Chorus
God was a designer, bitch, look at this face
Symmetry's religion in the Instagram age
Fake's the new gospel, filters are grace
We're dying for beauty — slow, in lace
God was a designer — cold and divine
Cut me open, let me shine
Bleed in vogue, cry in style
Mirror says I'm worth the while

Verse 2
Heaven got a waiting list — if you ugly, you don't exist
Saviors come in scalpel form
Anesthesia keeps you warm
Wanna be loved? Better be hot
God don't bless what surgery's not
Swipe my soul into a jawline
Bitch, I sin in ultra-fine

Pre-Chorus
Pray to the surgeon, kneel to the doc
Holy water in a Botox shot
Crucified for every pound
Turn the cross into a brand now

Chorus
God was a designer, bitch, look at this face
Symmetry's religion in the Instagram age
Fake's the new gospel, filters are grace
We're dying for beauty — slow, in lace
God was a designer — cold and divine
Cut me open, let me shine
Bleed in vogue, cry in style
Mirror says I'm worth the while

Bridge
Perfection's pain, and pain is rich
Ugly's a curse, and broke is a bitch
He made us raw, we made it fake
He gave us bones, we re-shaped fate
This ain't vanity — it's war
Bless the face they can't ignore

Chorus
God was a designer, bitch, this is the deal
Beauty's holy, pain is real
Build me better, make me new
Flawless body, empty view
God was a designer — I saw the light
In a spotlight, tight and white
Burn the truth, inject the lie
I wanna live before I die

Outro
Tell me I'm perfect
Even if it's fake
Especially if it's fake
