Ezedike - Cynical Romance

Copied!

{chorus}
Can’t help i’m cynical
Fuck that romantic shit, i guess i’ll never fall, fall
Can’t help i’m cynical
I do more damage when searching
So-so you’ll find me, i’m hoping yeah

{verse one}
I don’t wanna wonder when he’s coming
Or be afraid of when he leaves
Arms filled with scars and brands
Used to wear my heart up on my sleeve
I was waiting for the fall
Now i wonder if i ever wanna fall at all
And all these skeletons want out of the dirt
I wanna move on but i don’t wanna get hurt

{chorus}
Can’t help i’m cynical
Fuck that romantic shit, i guess i’ll never fall, fall
Can’t help i’m cynical
I do more damage when searching
So-so you’ll find me, i’m hoping yeah
Can’t help i’m cynical
Fuck that romantic shit, i guess i’ll never fall, fall
Can’t help i’m cynical
I do more damage when searching
So-so you’ll find me, i’m hoping yeah

{verse two}
I thought the last one was it
Had more damage than me, so i guess i split
Reminds me of my old ways
Was stuck in a phase of looking for someone to stay
Tired of being lonely, laid up late & looking for my only
So i removed all distractions
Focused on my career instead of romantic transactions

{chorus}
Can’t help i’m cynical
Fuck that romantic shit, i guess i’ll never fall, fall
Can’t help i’m cynical
I do more damage when searching
So-so you’ll find me, i’m hoping yeah

{bridge}
I can’t help it
Don’t wanna get hurt, heart broke, damage, that pain - yeah i felt it
I can’t help it
Don’t wanna get hurt, heart broke, damage, that pain - yeah i felt it

{outro}
Hate how these boys make me feel
Tired of that head over heels
Wonder what the future will reveal
I’m looking for something real

Biography

edit bio

Jalen Tobar, (born June 22, 1998) known professionally as Ezedike, is a queer Chicago based singer, lyricist, and producer born and raised in South Bend, Indiana.

Ezedike self-released their first single, “That Old Black Magic” through their company (The Ezedike Company), & in collaboration with the artistic project The Black Voice, on August 15, 2020. The music video was released the following day, and as of September 6, 2020, has over 3K views. On October 17th, 2020 – they released the remix, and on November 14th, they released their debut project, “The Cupid Club” on which the remix is featured.

The title Ezedike is Nigerian in origin. It is a word created by the Igbo tribe for their royalty – specifically meaning mighty king. Though they are American & non-binary, Ezedike has stated that they, “chose this word to represent black excellence and to honor their position within the diaspora.” They’re currently laying the foundation for their entertainment company, whose mission is to “elevate those marginalized through humanitarian pursuits and ambitious, compelling art.”

Though their journey is beginning through music, they considers themselves, “a storyteller who’s work delves into other mediums of art.” This wide range of artistic pursuit is owed to their performance background. Their bold genre-bending music (which has been described as symphonic in approach) explores various facets of the experiences of queer people of color, while still containing universal themes. Their company is history in the making – it is the first multimedia entertainment company in history created and led by a queer person of color.
