Matthew Spencer - ...To Be The King
00
Copied!
It all starts with a dream
Hope and a cause for a murder you glean
Celebrating all the slaughter as you sip on lean
Self centered like you're on a magazine
Building up your connections to the revelry
We were always warned history would rhyme
But we never cared we were all so blind
We were too comfortable inside our lives
Even while we turned into society's blight
Switching up because you're bored
Always feeling moored
Like you didn't want to be a goddamn overlord
Putting foes to the sword
Like we're a stupid fucking thorn
How does it feel to be the king of the disease
You made us all slaves put us on your leash
Screaming that we need a lobotomy
When your hate becomes part of me
Running into a broken home at night
Go on and try to listen
When you Van Gogh yourself and your ears are missing
Leave the heart of a forest open wide
Looks like you failed your mission
Trees falling down while your world keeps burning
Tell me how it feels to be the king
When you torment and set fire cause you know you're in impunity
You don't even know what's in the brain
Yet you run around the world with one hundred fifty limousines
Beating us down keep on thinking you're a god
Burning it all setting fire to the sod
Like a mixtape you keep bringing to us all
U2ed that shit so we threw it at the wall
Crash
So long motherfucker this ain't the first time I threw a piece of media
Smash
By the time I'm done spitting bars to lock you in you'll find this shit on Wikipedia
Still I find all this to be a warm up
Nothing more that I need to leave you torn up
One verse is all I need like a musket
Claim that you won't so I'll ask you if the glove fits
Running into a broken home at night
Go on and try to listen
When you Van Gogh yourself and your ears are missing
Leave the heart of a forest open wide
Looks like you failed your mission
Trees falling down while your world keeps burning
Enact mutilation for the dime
Stronger and stronger we go
You keep living a lie while the ashes grow cold
In the end we will never be just fine
Go on and dig the moat
We'll throw you in and see if you float
Looks like you don't even know when the world tries to scream
That you're all alone
Did you find the end of the road is it covered by trees
Did it go below
You don't even know what the reason is
Like you missed an episode of the show you're in
You wanna cure your world we're the medicine
We'll put the guns to your goddamn temple and
If it's made of stone we'll bring the cannons
Fuck spraying bars I spray explosions
No way out bitch you're not Moses
You can try but you'll never spread apart the roses
Congratulations now you've really gone and made a mess
Done fucked up thinking that your power's limitless
You've been playing with the snakes like we're not venomous
Down for the count but you never really gave a shit
Running into a broken home at night
Go on and try to listen
When you Van Gogh yourself and your ears are missing
Leave the heart of a forest open wide
Looks like you failed your mission
Trees falling down while your world keeps burning
Enact mutilation for the dime
In the end we will never be just fine
(Go on and dig the moat)
