Fuck It I Dance Now!

from Significant Figures 2​.​0 by Sig Figs Collective

lyrics

The looming specter of failure lies ahead
I’m a shadow of the great expectations in my head
Cuz I must honor the family name
I must live up to my father’s fame
I can’t disappoint my friends or they’ll be dead
But then a 1, 2, 3, 4
Feet on the floor
Step after step
Can’t catch my breath
As I kiss her
A fiery partner
Pas de Bourree
Surrounded by flames
My passions ignited
Won’t try to fight it
Tapping my feet
Twirling elven sheets
A champion no more
Try the College of Swords
A newfound transformation
Bardic inspiration!

I’m gonna build a dance studio
And go throw rocks in the river
Play some tunes over the radio
My confidence grows even bigger
Papa, I hope that you’re proud of me
And the path I’ve paved in your stead
Because toxic masculinity is dead (toxic masculinity is dead)

F*ck it, I dance now! (Hoot Growl!)
(AHHHH!)
Wave my sheet in the air like I just don’t care
(AHHHH!)
Sheathe the insecurities that I had to bear
(AHHHH!)
I’m gonna be me, gonna build my own legacy
(AHHHH!)
With my friends standing beside me, I finally feel seen
(Fabian fin’ly feels seen x2)
I feel seen!

I’ve fin’ly gotten in touch with my elven roots
A pirouette, a chassé drives the ego away; I’m finding my own truth
I’m Fabian Aramais Seacaster
And truth be told, I’m a golden boy disaster
Nightmares be damned, I gotta save Spyre, with every growl and hoot
(Hoot growl, Hoot Growl!)

But then a 5, 6, 7, 8
I can’t see straight
Where are the fuck my friends?
And where the hell’s this road end?
Chungle-Down Bim
As the light grows dim
Let me take my golden crown
Of crippling self-doubt
As I sprint through the forest
Approaching the chorus
Escape into the ground
Don’t you dare make a sound
Look! I faced my fears
I find myself in tears
Of this newfound realization
Bardic inspiration!

I used to think my friends only respected what was given to me from you
But now I know that my friends love me for who I am, not what I could do
Papa if only you could see how I’ve gotten out of my head
Because toxic masculinity is dead (toxic masculinity is dead)

F*ck it, I dance now! (Hoot Growl, motherf*ckers!)
(AHHHH!)
Wave my sheet in the air like I just don’t care
(AHHHH!)
Sheathe the insecurities I had to bear
(AHHHH!)
I’m gonna be me, gonna build my own legacy
(AHHHH!)
With my friends standing behind me, I finally feel seen

(Fabian fin’ly feels seen x2)
I feel seen!

Chorus repeats:
Look at me now! Look at me now!
I’ll tap dance on top of the evil we disavow
I’m finally me, building my own legacy!
It’s Spring Break, and the Bad Kids are proud of me
(F*ck it, Fabian dances now! x2)
They’re proud of me!
