[Verse 1: E L U C I D]
Bad pollen, waiting on money, thinking of murder
Eating darkness, since before I could remember
Weak and still tempted, hand hidden greased, if the
Gods and their need for validation like tender humans
I squeeze my children's hand and walk hard against the wind
Seven-fold vengeance, it could never end
Niggas die for less, the more I thought, the less I pray
It's not this or that, but what's in the way
I brought a trunk full of tiny violins to the bloodletting
I can play one on each finger for every seven bodies
His goblet swirls scarlet, think but won't say
Be thankful, it's a sacrifice not a homi'
Earth a greedy bitch, whose cup is never full
Insatiable pours, pulling from a poorly rolled spliff
It's mine and it's hitting
Weather balloon float in horizons distance
I wake up and thrust inside my missus
Two fistfuls of hair my face buried
Married to the game before September's child
Death may smile, stretched linen lie inside whispered vows
As for me and my house, keeping short account
Defrag the files, I'mma ask you now
[Chorus: E L U C I D]
Where in the life, look in the fire
Lick before you bite
So I know it's coming
Where in the life, look in the fire
Lick before you bite
So I know it's coming
[Verse 2: billy woods]
I tried, I really did - I left the flesh behind
Locked the doors, even when I was out, I was inside
Let go of ambition and pride, I'm no prize
I'm just looking for a place to hide like a sick animal but we survived
Sent white men to collect my mechanicals
White men sent me to the stage, performed mechanically
I can't throw off this malaise
Count the days towards what? I don't know
But I know I'm not afraid
Gotta keep the devil way down in the hole
It take two men to dig a grave
But I threw dirt on the lonely - if you allow me to paraphrase
Buddy Holly on the plane, I'm focused on the next gig
It's a weight on my chest, I waited for the message
Made it past the beta test, Victor let his monster live
Don't bother asking, I gave everything I had to give
This is planned obsolescence
Told the pigs I ask the questions
Bodies wash up on the beach
They squat waiting for the drugs
Floated on the beat, cabin pressure was just enough
Crazy if you think you're crazier than us
Crazy if you think you're crazier than us
[Chorus: E L U C I D]
Where in the life, look in the fire
Lick before you bite
So I know it's coming
Where in the life, look in the fire
Lick before you bite
So I know it's coming
So I know it's coming
So I know it's coming
