Our Brand Is Crisis

Verse 1
If you're caught in a bind
And you want to get out
Give us a call and we'll come flying to you
We'll brainstorm to construct a well-crafted narrative
Put it in the papers and make it go viral
The masses will chew on whatever we deliver to their homes
Most will be satisfied and beg for more
We're able to unravel multiple distractions and disorders
Like juggling balls with our eyes closed
Without the use of magic
Without relying on luck
The fruits of our labour will nourish a nation

Verse 2
If you're low with no place to go
We'll put on a show to captivate an audience
With an invisible hand, we'll scratch your back
Just as long as we're well-compensated
When you give, you take more than what's expected
Like a thief in the night
You're unheard and unseen
If you're ratted out or threatened with exposure
Donate to charity to increase your popularity
The great and the small will all bow at your feet
They'll kiss the ring while biting their tongues
You won't be castigated
You won't be stripped bare
Your name and words will act as sword and shield

Verse 3
Two sides of a coin
Both ends of a spectrum
Unbeknownst to our opponents
The decks are stacked in our favour
When solutions are needed to disputes and dilemmas
Knowing we'll be victorious, we'll offer as many
This is not a game
This is a way of life
When groomed to be successful
Failure is not an option
Our echoes linger in your dreams
Our visions blend into your shadows
All that we create is reflected in you
Scrub your skin and detox your organs
We've made plans for you
And you'll serve us very well

Chorus
Our brand is crisis / What we live and what we breathe / The fire burning in us / And consuming all that we touch / We're exceptional at what we do / That's why they call us professionals / Being on top is the sole position we aspire to
