  • Once upon a time, everything was alright
    I used to feel safe, not a worry in sight
    Then I grew up, quickly realized
    The world is a fucked up place sometimes
    Death is at your door
    Reaching in from the other side
    It's time to cut the cord
    Hangin' on like a parasite, go
    Ah, hangin' on like a parasite
    Hangin' on like a parasite

    Don't hesitate, you're hangin' on for your life
    Don't hesitate, you're reachin' out from the light
    Walking on a razor's edge
    My blood runs black, I'm not your friend
    Fuck

    Pull from the depths of the 36 Chambers
    Ah-ah, pull the trigger, give a bullet to a stranger, nice
    Ah, pull from the depths of the 36 Chambers
    Pull the trigger, give a bullet to a stranger

    I don't wanna die (die), but I'm not gonna live
    In a place so cold, in a world like this (this)
    Crucify me (me), it's blasphemy
    Throw me in the fire, let me burn for eternity (go, go, go)
    Burn for eternity, eternity
    I'll never be the one that'll ever back down
    Never turn around and run
    Never, never, never back down

    Deep into the trench of a place unknown
    Lies a dead man clutched to the bottom of a throne
    At the bottom of a hole that nobody wants to go
    It's the devil that you know that's gotta hold up on your wicked soul (damn)

    When they're summin' your mind and you're thinkin' the devil is makin' the crime
    And the people are evil and never no demon designing the opposite of a divine? No
    Yes, the hell is in front of you, side and behind
    I can feel every sign of a human decline
    I'm believin' the time is upon us when all of our people are blind, yo
    Red rain, saw it fallin' from a tower's dead plane
    Head bang, mandalay bay hotel on a lead cane
    Sex change could get you caught up in death's reign
    She plead sane but really imitating Ed Gein
    How did we get this way? Negative shit to say when we get this way
    Havin' a fit today so they wanna make a bitch decay
    My son's mom went gone, I was really wrong, I thought I was gone
    I vomit so shame for my son but I didn't go John Muhammad
    So the devil's right here on this level wide tier
    'Cause when rebels ready to pop the heavy metal, why fear? (Yeah)
    Abomination, babin' fakin', consecration hatin', wastin' education
    Got the killer, wanna kill 'em, gotta chase 'em, go

    Go

    Spiraling out of control and deeper down the rabbit hole
    Never gonna let them get the most of what they'll have to resurrect
    You're sick to death, better take me down
    I don't give a fuck, this is disgrace to God (no, no, no, no)
    Yeah
    Never gonna let them get the most of what they'll have to resurrect
    So I don't give a fuck, this is disgrace to God Writer/s: Charles Massabo, Jason Richardson, Ronnie Radke, Tech N9ne, Tyler Smyth
