John Reaper - God Of War

Copied!

{intro}
Voices in my head
Telling me i'm dead
How can i find peace
When i barely fall sleep
I'm a fiend

Picture perfect life
In the afterlife
I don't ask for favors
Melt away today
Am i a failure

{verse 1}
Yeah yeah
Forget what i said
I'm on a path now
That i wish i'd escaped
Don't really know the word play
To explain all this pain
So i work till i hate
Give me a break
I'm almost 30
And i'm searching for change
But i still remain
So indecisive
In choosing my lane
The nicest smiles
Are usually fake
Or is it the opposite
I don't know
They all look the same
Smiles ear to ear
When death sees me decay
Life's always unfair
Straight out the gate
I'm living large
At my parents place

{pre-chorus}
Don't wanna give into the rage
Don't wanna give into the pain

Don't wanna give into rage
Don't wanna give into the pain

{chorus}
In my eyes
The vengeance lies

God of war
At the door
Restless nights
The fire rises

God of war
At the door

{refrain}
Forget what i said
I'll say it again
Am i failure
Don't really matter
If i make it to fame

Forget what i said
I'll say it again
Am i a failure
Just because i choose to live my life
Against the grain

{verse 2}
Nine to five ,all his life
They tell that kid to hit the grind
Taking shots at self esteem
I wonder why he won't reply?
Building up his hope
To watch it die
Counterfeit supply
The rugs been pulled
The ladders cut
And now to your surprise
He won't play nice
Copy paste
Another face
You can't replace
Lost innocence
I called the judge
The verdict states
Your ignorance
Is self dismissed
Self destruction
At attention
Self awareness
Did i mention
No exceptions
Lost direction
No plan b
Still something's missing

{pre-chorus}
Don't wanna give into the rage
Don't wanna give into the pain

Don't wanna give into the rage
Don't wanna give into the pain

{chorus}
In my eyes
The vengeance lies

God of war
At the door

Restless nights
The fire rises

God of war
At the door

{outro}
Don't wanna give into the rage
Don't wanna give into the pain
Don't wanna give into the rage
Don't wanna give into the pain
