You Were Born an Asshole-2

A song I made:

[Intro – Swamp Groove Builds]
Yeah… you came into this world raisin’ hell from day one.
(Guitar riff with a slow stomp beat and dirty slide lick.)

[Verse 1]
You talk big, but your heart runs cold,
Silver tongue, but your soul’s been sold.
Every promise turns to smoke and lies,
You leave a trail burnin’ through the sky.

[Chorus]
You were born an asshole, that’s just the way,
Ain’t no change, no price to pay.
You walk like a saint, but you lie like sin,
Yeah, the devil just grins when you walk in.

[Verse 2]
You take what’s yours — and what ain’t too,
Blame the world for the mess you do.
Every barroom knows your name,
You light the match, then walk from the flame.

[Chorus]
You were born an asshole, truth be told,
Ain’t no fixin’ what can’t be sold.
You smile that grin, play your role,
Yeah, you were born an asshole.

[Bridge – Guitar Solo / Hammond Growl]
(Slide guitar wails over thunderous drums.)
You can’t hide from what you are,
You’re a broken halo, a falling star.

[Final Chorus]
You were born an asshole, through and through,
Ain’t no savin’ the likes of you.
Raise your glass, here’s to your soul,
Yeah, you were born an asshole.

[Outro – Slow Fade / Harmonica Echo]
(Guitar bends fade under a dusty organ swell.)
Some folks change…
But not you, no.
