Death Grips - The Fear

Copied!

{Intro}
I don't know dude, I just—I just drink blood dude

{Refrain}
The fear (jump, jump, jump)
I'm gonna kill somebody (jump, jump, jump)
Don't jump!

{Verse 1}
Downs you with dull pain, won't we become strange?
Tied up with your legs, hide helps, on the way
Who will help you fall? It's just all so frail
So long since we fell, still don't know we failed
Go for the most tears, stay cause it gets strange
Went there to shed years, left there in lead chains
Been there since next year, scarred us to death chair
Scared us to rest less, skull full of house guests

{Refrain}
The fear
The fear

{Chorus}
I feel so sick today (I'm afraid to be here with you)
You wanna kill somebody (I'm afraid to be here with you)
I feel so sick today (I'm afraid to be here with you)
You wanna kill somebody (I'm afraid to be here with you)

{Refrain}
Don't jump! (Jump, jump, jump)
(Jump, jump, jump)
The fear

{Verse 2}
Pulled close by its pliers, cold, sharp, and expired
Like ribs of vampire, like winds on high wire
Whips you like it cares, push you down more stairs
Kicks you for quick laughs, don't cry, you won't last (The fear)
Missing entire weeks, months gone as I peak
Lost tongue, mystery, everyone's on to me (The fear)
Who's this stole my heels, stumbled into hell
Hates me till it heals, wakes me with the chills (The fear)

{Chorus}
I feel so sick today (I'm afraid to be here with you)
You wanna kill somebody (I'm afraid to be here with you)
I feel so sick today (I'm afraid to be here with you)
You wanna kill somebody (I'm afraid to be here with you)

{Bridge}
Frightening and embarrassing
Like one percent and pleasantries
Gather your things bolt till you reach
The crystal fields of ketamine
I'll meet you there, I'll beat you there
Bet I'll be there before you leave
Time you get there I’ll be midair
Like peace of mind's a bore to me

{Refrain}
The fear, the fear
Jump, jump
Don't jump!

{Outro}
When the rail holds you, flight like stairs grows you
Off your mind must wish, this is not my ditch
Ah that ditch wears you, host torn and worn through
Hard looks at blank walls, held way too long pause
The fear, the fear

Biography

edit bio

Death Grips is an experimental multi-genre group hailing from Sacramento, CA, formed in 2010. The band consists of vocalist Stefan “MC Ride” Burnett and producers Zach Hill and Andy Morin. Their unique sound blends elements of punk rock, hip-hop, noise, industrial, and electronic music.

The group burst onto the scene with the release of their first mixtape, Exmilitary, on April 25, 2011, featuring their popular song “Guillotine.” Soon after, they signed with Epic Records and released their debut studio album, The Money Store. However, tensions with the label arose when Death Grips teased their second album through an alternate reality game (ARG) and subsequently leaked it themselves as No Love Deep Web. This move led to their departure from Epic Records.

In 2013, Death Grips founded their own label, Third Worlds, and surprise-released Government Plates. The band continued to push boundaries with the release of the first half of The Powers That B in 2014, followed by Jenny Death later that year. Despite announcing their disbandment in 2014, Death Grips returned in 2015 and released Bottomless Pit in 2016.

Known for their intense live performances and provocative lyrics, frontman Stefan Burnett brings a raw and visceral energy to the group. His violent and confrontational lyrics touch on themes of individualism, paranoia, mental illness, drug use, occultism, and societal decay.

With a discography that includes both vocal and instrumental albums, Death Grips has solidified their reputation as one of the most boundary-pushing and genre-defying acts in contemporary music. Their latest album, Year of the Snitch, released in 2018, further cements their status as pioneers in the experimental music scene.
