Dance Gavin Dance - Born To Fail
Музыка
"Born To Fail" comes from Dance Gavin Dance's new album 'Afterburner' - out now! Pre-order/stream here: riserecords.lnk.to/afterburner
LYRICS
Only bangers from now on
Only angry mental moans
You fool I'm rich
Splattered the bag
Emptied the crypt
You fool I'm rich
Flap like a flag
Scripted to flip
How long could you keep up with all of it?
Before you jacked too many licks and caught something you couldn’t kick?
It’s no surprise you came and begged me for a second chance
Pathetic hat in hand
Now that I’m in demand
“Give me substance give me something”
This is the song you wish you’d wrote
Before you proved to the world you’re a fucking joke
Before you had your chance and fucking choked
Before you tried to do me over
Honestly
You’ve always known I’d prevail
It’s biology
And you were born to fail
Facts
Just say it
No you don't need to know
Feels
Display them
Everyone's the goat
Now I’m around the world shredding for a full ovation
And you can trash my reputation
As you enjoy your long vacation
Ditch it fist bastard
Cancel all your fans
They're passed out in the pasture
Sucking up the spam
You look just like a person
But missing all the man
When life becomes a burden
Just pull a fucking scam
Goddamn
You were born to fail

I feel that a lot of people are missing this - In this song, Tilian is singing about his falling out with Tides of Man and Jon's singing about Johnny Craig's downfall. That is deep as hell lol damn

There was the laptop thinh and he's also been a mega douche lately with the controversy stuff going on with his gf so I wouldn't be surprised if the band tries to distance themselves from his name. Who knows though. We all love how close DGD is with all their ex-bandmembers so I hope everything's good regardless

Jon: Only bangers from now on. Me: *from now on?* shiiiid
The line "Only bangers from now on" is about 10 years late

Jon's lyrics are so obvious towards Jonny, but I think you can interpret some Tillian's lyrics too
This might be one of the most straight forward DGD songs in recent memory. Allusions to "Knowing" from Tides of Man and Jonny Craig's time in DGD/MacBook scam. Shade!
this was directed to Tilian in the end 💀

this is one of the best dgd songs ever
This track is 🔥 Will Swan is ridiculously great on this album
Long time fan of tides here, as well as Tilian’s solo stuff. I finally gave in and decided to check out DGD. I normally work backwards through a catalog so I got to this song quickly 😂 this tides shade SENT me ☠️
Damn that Tides of Man reference
You guys deliver 110%. Your guys music has helped me through some difficult and very different times of my life. Much love to you all!!!

This song has such an interesting character. It feels more fresh, and a little less familiar. Definitely an outlier from the other singles in terms of predictability. Other songs are still bangers though. You can't go wrong with a DGD song.
I would sell me soul in order to ever see you guys live you guys are actual gods
IM HEREEEE 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Did I just hear lyrics from Tides of Man? Give me substance, give me something LOL Miss that band! Tillian was great with them, too!
Hell yea some new DGD to end the night smoothly and vibingly😁🤙🏻🤘🏻💯
Just when I think its time for bed
"only bangers from now on"..... From now on he says...
Love the entire album! Thanks, DGD!
Jonnys always gonna have my favorite album but is it every time they write a song dissing him it’s a banger ex people you know
Im just rolling through these songs at 543am. This is my favorite so far.
That "GODDAAAMNNNN!" gives me fucking chills lol.
Man soooo worth the wait. Every. Damn. SECOND.
Tilian kinda work harder for this album, he screamed a lot!
Absolutely wonderful
I want a DGD album with 10 min songs that be lit
you guys said this would be released tomorrow, you're the best. such a good album!
I already love it
Nice! Love Tilian's voice 🤘🏻
Amazing as always 🖤
I love it already
Anyone else get a Tides feel from this? I guess it's the way Tillian sings it and some music parts that hit just right.
Loving it 😊
I love this Secret Band track featuring Tillian

He got kicked out for auditioning for a spot in a Saosin. Quote: "For the record, I didn’t quit Tides Of Man. I expressed interest in pursuing the open spot in Saosin to the guys in Tides. The reactions were mixed, and I got kicked out of the band. They didn’t want a singer/leader to be in the band with that kind of doubt in his mind. Though I don’t like it, I respect their decision. In a more perfect world I would have had full trust and support from my friends in Tides and would’ve been able to pursue the open spot in Saosin, and possibly stay in both bands (this all would depend on whether it even worked out with Saosin in the first place)."
