Snakes

I got a problem with the snakes that are crawlin'
Through my area when the darkness has fallen
And momma told me that they love to bite
They stab you in the back no shame that's right, what, what
I keep my distance cause they're makin me crazy
Stealin from me, you know those fuckers are lazy
My blood boils, fat turns to oil
Step the fuck back or you'll get buried in soil
Over trauma, or you could sleep with the fishes
My clutches are tight and I'll take your last wishes
One for your money
Two for your girl
Three for your life
Now I fucked up your world
Do you like how it feels
To be bit in the neck by the snake that kills?
Do you know how it feels
To be stabbed in the back then watch the blood spill?
I don't like how it feels check it
Do you know how it feels
To be stabbed in the back then watch the blood spill?
Break it down
Yo, it's kinda funny how you're runnin your mouth man
You're caught in a lie and then there's no way out, come on
Betray your friends and your peeps and your family
Livin like a snake livin like a bloody thief
Check my speech cuz it's deep like the sea
From me to y'all, and then from y'all back to me, ha!
Danger danger, I slay snakes like a ranger
Military style fears God not a stranger
Now tell me, tell me who's crew's sicker?
Mine's sicker, get on your knees you be a dick licker
One for your money
Two for your girl
Three for your life
Now I fucked up your world
Check it!
Do you like how it feels
To be bit in the neck by the snake that kills?
Do you know how it feels
To be stabbed in the back then watch the blood spill?
I don't like how it feels, check it
Do you know how it feels
To be stabbed in the back then watch the blood spill?
Do you like how it feels?
I don't like how it feels!
I don't like it
I don't want it
I don't need it
I don't like it
I don't want it
I don't need it
What the fuck is up?
Do you like how it feels
To be bit in the neck by the snake that kills?
Do you know how it feels
To be stabbed in the back then watch the blood spill?
Do you like how it feels?
I don't like how it feels
To be bit in the neck by the snake that kills
By the snake that kills
By the snake that kills
