Vampires
Lyrics
Look around and you can see the victims of a fallen planet
They walk around like they been carrying a load of granite
They call it random they don't know how anyone could plan it
They think they're all there ever was or that they've been abandoned
It breaks my heart to watch them live when I can see them hurting
They wanna cover up their sin so they just pull the curtain
They don't know how they've been deceived, they just know nothing's working
Meanwhile their demons watch them bleeding, cut them like a surgeon
There's something sucking their life
Their habits stealing their light
They swing at nothing, they're blind
They don't know how they can fight
They got some habits, and problems that they can't seem to get right
But they don't know they're in cages and they don't understand why
I pray they find a way to make it out of hand prior
To their destruction cuz they're victims of a vampire
Tell me is this love or is it something darker
I can't blink without my demons beating on me like they Travis Barker
Wish they'd forget me like I'm Peter Parker
What's their deal? I ain't tryna barter
I always fought harder, I should be fighting smarter
I ain't the chosen, ain't a stricken martyr
I did this to myself, I need a sip of water
Cause I been
Hurting, going
Back and forth with what's my foe
Like, of course I know
Sin sucks, it really steal my flow
Yo
Stressing got me going grey
I'm starting look like Gojo
Fighting with my flesh
My mind is feeling like a dojo
I hit my knees and pray
Then it's back up in the game
Spitting to show you how I see things
Like a GoPro
And every bar, I meant it fully, what I wrote
But I been learning that I just can't do this on my own
If I can't shake it, I'm still resting in His grace
But there's pain from these fangs
I can't pretend ain't at my throat
All life is born in blood but some people want to wallow
Put their faith in dead and dying things that leave them hollow
Created things will never be enough for men to follow
But somehow the vast majority would always rather coddle
Something dark and destructive that comes up under a front
All these monsters and demons, they come in looking for blood
They come in wielding a sickle, the people think that it's blunt
Til they become a statistic, victims of innocent fun
It's hard to recognize the danger til it's right in front of you
And by the time you see it's face it's hard to take the W
It comes in through the cracks and it'll always try to trouble you
And you'll be in a pit before you see a single subtle move
Many never see the hand until it clamps tighter
Before you know it you'll be victim of a vampire
Look around and you can see the victims of a fallen planet
They walk around like they been carrying a load of granite
They call it random they don't know how anyone could plan it
They think they're all there ever was or that they've been abandoned
It breaks my heart to watch them live when I can see them hurting
They wanna cover up their sin so they just pull the curtain
They don't know how they've been deceived, they just know nothing's working
Meanwhile their demons watch them bleeding, cut them like a surgeon
There's something sucking their life
Their habits stealing their light
They swing at nothing, they're blind
They don't know how they can fight
They got some habits, and problems that they can't seem to get right
But they don't know they're in cages and they don't understand why
I pray they find a way to make it out of hand prior
