Rat King
Peaceful people peelin' paint
Entitlement is idle time
So push it forward, navigate
Your common thread was born a hate crime
Keep tryin' to unscrew the bulb
Smother the last flicker of white heat
But the evil shines right through
Demonic arrogance is a timeless luxury
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Take it all away from him
Now starve him to the brink
Olly, olly oxen free
Stop and fuckin' think
Of how much oxygen you need
To make your point clear
To snuff out every bit of hate
To pull its rotten teeth
To instill its own rendition of fear
Still tryin' to unscrew the bulb
So, we set fire to the basement beams
This modern freedom is a lie
And we're all caught in its flames
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Take it all away from him
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat king
Take it all away from him, oh
And we will unscrew the bulb
With unapologetic unity
Atop, the ashes will grow
A place for all, a place we'll know
That we can breathe, we're in control
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Take it all away from him
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat king
Take it all away from him
Entitlement is idle time
So push it forward, navigate
Your common thread was born a hate crime
Keep tryin' to unscrew the bulb
Smother the last flicker of white heat
But the evil shines right through
Demonic arrogance is a timeless luxury
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Take it all away from him
Now starve him to the brink
Olly, olly oxen free
Stop and fuckin' think
Of how much oxygen you need
To make your point clear
To snuff out every bit of hate
To pull its rotten teeth
To instill its own rendition of fear
Still tryin' to unscrew the bulb
So, we set fire to the basement beams
This modern freedom is a lie
And we're all caught in its flames
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Take it all away from him
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat king
Take it all away from him, oh
And we will unscrew the bulb
With unapologetic unity
Atop, the ashes will grow
A place for all, a place we'll know
That we can breathe, we're in control
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Take it all away from him
Feed the rat, feed the rat king
Crawlin' under my skin
Feed the rat king
Take it all away from him
