about
Produced by Azawka and Franky Selector, “Easily Offended” is a driving, funked-out electronic jam that explores the fine line between standing up for what is right and standing up because you think you’re right. It advocates old adages like, “Think before you speak” and “Don’t sweat the small stuff”. It reminds us that sometimes it’s more constructive to just breathe instead of trying to convince others to agree with you. The song acknowledges that disagreeing is part of life and it’s OK if there are people that do not hold the exact same set of beliefs as we do. In typical Azawka fashion, the track blends a cheeky edge with an overall positive message and a deeply satisfying groove. “Easily Offended” empowers us to stay true to ourselves while letting go of excessive influence over others in order to better focus on the things that matter most.
lyrics
Easily Offended
Mind your business, don’t talk too much
Never listen what they sayin when they livin out of touch
Hate to cut up the vibe but it go down when I’m around
Tryin to keep the level even got me cuttin down some clowns abound
But oh well, got the attention now,
Yeah we doin it and movin it, they losin it, we provin it
They postin mostly on the weekend from a laptop,
Simple game, stay in your lane, now that’s the last stop!
Listing the offences, never-ending, what up?
If you easily offended don’t be actin like you tough
Pray tell me, what is paradise?
If we all listened to you, bet the world be “just right”
Hear you runnin your lip all day and all night,
Yeah we hearing from you kid, but try breathing for a while,
Don’t be no shame if we ain’t on the same ride,
Just remember what’s yours cause I be knowin what’s mine
Don’t mean to bother, ain’t trying to stare,
Yeah they got their opinion, but we still don’t care
On and on, like a broken record,
Studied your position, now I’m about to wreck it
So sad we don’t follow your direction,
You gettin mad cause you a still life an erection
You can’t take a joke, but you can swallow your words,
and I hope you choke!
Listing the offences, never-ending, what up?
If you easily offended don’t be actin like you tough
Pray tell me, what is paradise?
If we all listened to you, bet the world be “just right”
Hear you runnin your lip all day and all night,
Yeah we hearing from you kid, but try breathing for a while,
Don’t be no shame if we ain’t on the same ride,
Just remember what’s yours cause I be knowin what’s mine
