Red River

Don't wanna wake up but I realize I got too much rest
I got a fat black demon pressing down on my chest
Got my subconscious suffocating
Now my heart finna seize
Weight of the world hitting
I'm collapsing down on my knees
I'm gonna wake up when the time is right
That is what I tell myself
Still I disregard my health
By best interests are high on the shelf
Life is unfair
But some have it worse
And some dive head first into a hearse
One day I'm gonna say my last words
Nah
I ain't tryna rehearse

Hydra in my plane of sight
Temptation rears it's ugly head
I grab the sword and slice him open
Blood that spills turns clear to red
I pierce the devils skull
With the flaming spirit of old
Freeing the stolen souls
Serrated gold
New found faith is my hold
Hypocrisy up in my words if I'm claiming the dragon is already slain
Descendant of Cain
In spite of the efforts of good hearted
Sixteen heads now to his name
I sharpen the blade and my tongue
Consider the thought that he's already won
No
Forty days and forty nights the time it takes to put down the gun
No

Thinking you know my pain
Bitch you don't know the demons I've slain
Wasn't easy though since I wanted a gun put to my brain
Pull the trigger leave my body in the rain
But I had to pull through
Be there for my family and my crew
Won't let them see me in a casket this soon
Don't want them to think I won't wake up at noon
Depression is an ugly bitch
Tried to put me in the ditch
That veil keeps calling my name
Saying that's the game
Knowing I'm the one to blame
Cause I can't keep my mental tame

Came home had a real bad day
Agonizing I was in constant pain
Popped a couple pills to make it go away
I'm dizzy and got a headache
See a gun saving grace
Aimed it at my brain I pulled the trigger
Bang
It's only a blank
Look around I'm on a stage
Camera facing me and I don't know what to say
Scene cuts out and I do another take
Thoughts been haunting me since I was in the third grade
Insanity going manic
Inside I am rotting and rancid
Red filling my lungs start to panic
How do I escape
Am I going insane
My mind is in chains I cannot be saved
Then I stumble out my bathroom door
Before I know it I'm bleeding all over the floor
So I let that red river flow
Now I don't feel any pain no more

Red
Red
Red
Red
Red
Red river
Red
Red
Red
Red
Red
Red river
Red
Red
Red
Red
Red
Red river
Red
Red
Red
Red
Red
Red river
