Influence - The Acorn

She says she stakes her claim with obstinance:

Know that I can make my mind up;

I never been here before.

Cuz I never needed more that calls to you, or the memories laden in between.

No I never needed more of anything that lulls you, cuz I keep it all together.

It’s just a matter of influence: the people that I talk to.

Cuz I love to see the things I’ve never seen before.

And I know I can’t mistake you for the one I want.

But I know that you can’t seem to make your mind up, so I keep it all together.

It’s just a matter of influence: it’s the promises among us.

Even follow my mistakes.

I know that I can surely show the ways that I operate.

Cuz I never needed more of anyone that I could fool;

I see that shit all around

me.

Is it weird that I don’t mind you talking for me?

I don’t mind you talking.

The way that I walk into the room, know that I’m the one you’ll be talking to.

No I don’t mind ghosting on the party, cuz I got all I’ll ever need.

Cuz it seems the way that I could make my mind up,

is by never needing anyone to see my faults, least of you.

All of you.

Cuz I never needed more of anyone that I could fool;

I see that shit all around

me.

It’s just a matter of influence.

It’s just the call of indifference.

It’s the way that you talk to me.

It’s just the way that you just fall between my needs.
