[Twilight] No, this won't work.
[Sunset] Hey, Twilight. .....You're up late.
[Twilight] Just looking over the counterspell. We only get one shot at this,
it has to be perfect.
[Sunset] You know we really are lucky you're here.
[Twilight] That's what everyone keeps telling me.
[legitimate fridge opening sound, recorded from my fridge]
[Twilight] We're lucky you're here too, just in case.
[Sunset] Yeah, Rainbow doesn't seem to think so.
(whispering) Who could possibly need this much whipped cream?
[Twilight] I'm sure she'll come around. I'm sorry she has to be like that.
[Music starts]
[Sunset] (sighs) Must be nice to always have everyone looking to you for answers to their problems...
...instead of waiting for you to cause a problem.
[Verse 1 - Sunset]
[of course they're going to start rapping]
When you can
Carry out what everyone is expecting,
You're exceptional, except the only exception is when
The only thing that they expect is a mess, cause the legend you left is nothing but less
Something you don't want to digress into, leave it to rest
Then you try to forget it cause you regret all the places you've been
Back when you were a different person, hurting
And so you cursed the world and sought revenge
But then you thought again, returned searching for friends,
Lesson was learned, you've done all you could to repent
But the world still presents you with tension, resentment
'Cause to them, you haven't changed a cent
You reinvent yourself more, but the more you do
The more you change, the more that there is to lose
Cause if you lose this second chance they gave you?
They'll feel betrayed and they won't return to save you.
Day by day, the pain burns but the page I turn
'Cause the way I learn is through mistakes made
And everybody's painting it up like you'll be saving the day
But I just want to show the world that I'm changing my ways
That's why I'm doing this, puttin' my hand in
A small part of me feels like maybe I can win
The Battle of the Bands, it's really not whey the planned,
But I hope that as a friend, you can understand it
By the others I get reprimanded
Can't join the Rainbooms so I'll just freehand it
Twi, you saw the ripple I made, I've got the same stuff they do
I wanna believe that I can save the day
But hey, maybe I won't, and if I can't, that's fine
If I don't, just nevermind, I'll back out of sight
But I know in my mind, I have to do this, I choose this
'Cause I don't want us to lose this fight
[Chorus - Sunset]
I hear their declarations Say who they see
[Twilight joins in, Sunset attempts to harmonize]
I feel their expectations Weighing on me
[Verse 2 - Twilight]
Now I'm pouring over pages for ages,
For the words to save this world from the mistakes of ancients
It's insane to think a princess is blanking
When her friends put their trust and faith in a stranger
But a saviour I'm not, don't understand the spot I'm in
Isn't cause of talent, it's all raised me up
You're all clearly seeing something I don't enough
Like it's easy to stand up tough- I wish it was
'Cause I'm terrified of failure and this mental state won't compromise
I don't wanna lie, but the truth means that I'm losing time
I can't find a spark inside this darker pallate
Watching tension draining hope, making all my friends deharmonize
Sunset, I apologize for all the eyes who've led you to this
Lonely road of riding solo, even I have no excuses
I can only hope that you can find the words to guide us
From the siren's call of silence, try to find us all some breathing room
[Chorus- Both]
I hear their declarations Say who they see
I feel their expectations Weighing on me
[Verse 3 - Sunset (Twilight)]
Now I know there's no way that I can guarantee success
If I could, I would, but I can only do my best
(Perfection isn't taught in a friendship test,
and it's messed when that's the trait that everybody expects)
Nevertheless, it's not a question of rank-S
It's, "do we even have a chance to make this?"
(Maybe yes, but I've learned that alone this stress
Is no asset to hone for my confidence)
But consequentially, we're still yet to see
If this is just a test or something left to Destiny
I guess we'll see, we'll do our best to change her plans
Until a chance comes to rest again, peacefully
(If it's meant to be, but fate's cast its hand, cast you out
Cast a spell, now it's up to us to conquer the doubt, somehow
But I've got to find a way
To make okay all of the mistakes that I've made
[Chorus - Both]
I hear their declarations Say who they see
I feel their expectations Weighing on me
