The Beast

[Verse 1] You can hear the thunder Long before the storm But you can't hear the lion when he stalks his prey He's moving like a shadow Creeping up on you And like a siren's call, he's gonna have his way You'd better run, forget your pride Don't make a stand, just step aside If you don't have what it takes Don't try to play, you'll lose your stakes Remember this at least [Chorus] It's the nature of the beast It's the nature of the beast [Verse 2] You won't hear a footstep Comin' up on you Movin' like a snake, he's in complete control This killer knows his business He is the predator You are his only target, you're his only goal What will you say what will you do? Your wildest nightmare's comin' true There is nothing you can say No way to change, he won't delay This Cain will have his feast [Chorus] It's the nature of the beast It's the nature of the beast [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] If you play, you're bound to lose Don't roll the dice, don't turn the screws Just listen to the priest [Chorus] It's the nature of the beast It's the nature of the beast It's the nature of the beast It's the nature of the beast
