Serpent's Southern Pulse

Shadows creep on the block Where the streetlights flicker low Echoes of the fallen Ghosts in the wind that blow Crypt is steel tied Heart pounding like the face that slides One wrong glance And the trigger pulls the tide Cold nights, 808s rumblin' deep Our heads snappin' fast Secrets we keep Violence in the veins Survival's the game Street kings crowned in pain Whispering your name Bang, bang, ankles fade But the scars remain I'm in this beat drop Feel the weight unfold Raw confrontation Raw confrontation Story with troubles lurking And in the cut eyes like daggers sharp I'm in this beat drop When it's slippin' in the dark Empty souls we chase From the corner store From the store to the graveyard shift Emotional warfare Tears behind the mask Poetic justice served in the aftermath's task Cold nights, 808s rumblin' deep Our heads snappin' fast Secrets we keep Violence in the veins Survival's the game Street kings crowned in pain Whispering your name Bang, bang, ankles fade But the scars remain But the scars remain In the trap we build The trials remain Ain't by the chain By the chain For the weight unfold Raw confrontation Raw confrontation Confrontation Stories and the rest Everything lost No specific redemption in the dead of night But the pull of the streets Yeah, through in the chest Violence a cycle No time for rest Thought I'm stayin' in the neon glow Faith's dice roll Confront the demons Paid with the ultimate toll Raw edges sharpened by the grind we endure Streetlight symphony Grit in the ground In the fury A poet saw me cry High heads march on Through the endless ride Real life Cold nights 808s rumblin' deep Our heads snappin' fast Secrets we keep Violence in the veins Survival's the game Street kings crowned in pain Whispering your name Bang, bang, ankles fade But the scars remain But the scars remain In the trap we build In the trap we build Chained by the chain By the chain By the chain By the chain By the chain By the chain By the chain By the chain By the chain
