I don't need no sleep, I just need cheap pills
Dancin' with my demons in my head still
Lookin' for anything that'll give me a thrill
Heart so cold, can't tell what's real
But I love the pain - it's the only thing I feel
Lookin' for anything that'll give me a thrill, I just need cheap pills
Wake up in a cage that I can't escape
Everyday I fight this rage
Write these lyrics and spill my mind on a page
Broke my soul just to pay these bills
But I smile through the static swallowin' the kill...
Yeah, I been in the lab like a maniac
Crackin' my cranium, manic, panick attack!
Tryna paint pain with a pen full of wrath
I been on edge like a razor blade
Page decay, thoughts rot in a fatal way
Brainwaves bang like a 808
In a padded room with a hand grenade
I don't chase fame, I dismantle it
You think you know how to rap but I cancel it
Dead man dance to the amp and hiss
With a mic and a mask like an anarchist
Every rhyme's like cyanide drip
Spit sick like I slit my lip
In a pit full of sins I sit,
Just vibin' with ghosts in the apocalypse
Slick with the switchblade tongue and the mud boots
Sip rotgut with a punk and a gun tooth
Burn one church then I baptize truth
While the sky bleeds red and the gods cut loose
Back of the Cadillac, mad hat, brim bent
Tat face cracked like the glass in a meth den
Redneck rebels in a trap with a death wish
Prayin' with a blade and a pack full of vengeance
Y'all ain't met me when the meds fade
I'm a freight train in a dead state
With a deadweight fate that I medicate
With a pen and a pad that I detonate
Ain't no peace when the leash gets tighter
Beast in the mirror, I breathe that fire
Knees on the dirt but the blood go higher
Still got a choir of shadows that wire me...
I overdose on hope, and choke on dreams
Syringe full of lies, drip dopamine
Angels cry in amphetamines
But the devil in me just loves to sing...
I don't need no sleep, I just need cheap pills
Dancin' with my demons in the backseat still
Heart so cold, can't tell what's real
But I love the pain - it's the only thing I feel
I don't need no thrills, I just need cheap pills
Wake up in a cage that I can't rebuild
Broke my soul just to pay these bills
But I smile through the static, swallowin' the kill...
No lights... no stage... just rage and rust.
We all fall down when the fame turns to dust.
You wanted cheap thrills?
Here's the cost... plus interest.
