Story behind the song
I was in a dark mood one day. I searched YouTube for "evil rap instrumental." First track I heard, I wrote the second verse to, along with an extended version thereof, available here: https://soundcloud.com/thyjoker/my-nightmare-before-christmas
I wrote the first verse to this song later, much later, along with the hook. I waited years to find the right MC to continue with a 2nd verse, but after a while my cousin ProblemSolv showed me this instrumental, at the time simply called 'save_it' and it was then that I slapped this bad boy together.
Lyrics
VERSE 1
The sun's down, twilight has passed
Time to wake up and don the mask
Gotta grab the weapons from the stash
Gotta triple-knot the shoestrings just to make sure the boots don't unravel,
Time to put on the black cloak and bang the gavel,
Justice league, right now I'm just a solo team,
At night its just my sword and me, but I'm recruitin'
If you think you can stomach the sickest of the most vile sh**
That will indeed produce bile inside you make you spit and vomit
If you can look into a comet coming from the heavens right down toward you and not flinch, then your calling is not something to ignore dude,
As a master I implore you, time to cut the cords that bind us,
Time to slice the woolen cloth that, pulled so tight, it blinds us
There's light inside us, at night it shines so bright that they can see it from the shadows and they'll come to find us, but they're just cattle.
Grab your lassos, guns and saddles, bows and arrows, rocks and wrenches,
F*** the second string, get the whole f*** in' team up off the benches,
Let's beat 'em back into the ground and ask 'em if they learned their lesson,
They say no, slice 'em, ain't no f*** in' second guessin',
Cut the head off, and throw it into the fire to keep us warm,
The night is young we must move on, here comes the storm, court's adjourned.
HOOK
Above all we must defend, don't attack without provocation,
But if they want a war, they got it. Imma lead the monster nation
Imma summon all the forces, start the movement with a dance,
Treat the enemy like barbecue, use only teeth and hands
VERSE 2
Seems like death is following me again,
I fear for the lives of my small circle of friends.
One by one they're getting picked off, I'm starting to get pissed off,
It's getting harder for me to control my twisted sick thoughts, give me a target,
There has to be a reason this keeps happening, don't talk sh**
I wanna see you lose everything and not become an addict,
If it's not death its loss of limb, loss of jobs, loss of homes, loss of sanity, loss of a grip of reality, old age, broken bone,
People getting caught up, distorted images of success, like the goal being to get locked up or die for the hustle,
At best I try to do what's right, and establish equilibrium,
But when f*** ed with, I'm quick to grab jugulars and start squeezing them, til there's no breath,
No reason for me to believe in a higher power that I'm stronger than,
I'll steal the heat from 'em like Prometheus, the fire I speak with it,
Tongues of flame lick the mic, burn the chrome,
F*** ya ears, my lyrics punch a new hole in ya dome
Boilin' ya neurons, and transmit images of me with a malicious smile haunting your thoughts when you're alone,
I'll wait outside your home, you'll see a shadow moving,
Its not a ghost, its not me neither, I'm not there, I'm right behind ya
You just can't see me, just an eerie feeling inside ya
Listen close, don't move
