[Intro - Wind through clouds, heartbeat, seed cracking] Shhh... quiet... Don't need fire... Don't need war... Just a seed... Hell Boy got it... Demon Boy got it... Plant it... [Verse 1 - Hell Boy] Yeah, we left the pit with a smoke in our palm, Not a blade, not a bomb, just a calm, Prince said "this the seed that the light can't kill, Plant it where they pray, plant it where they still." So we climb, through cloud, through gold, through gate, No guards, no swords, cause hate don't wait, Heaven sleepin', angels dreamin' white, We barefoot on marble in the middle of night. I kneel down where the purest river flow, Where they wash their halos, where they glow, Dig a hole with my claws, deep and slow, Drop the seed where no dark ever growed. Hell Boy whispers "grow." [Verse 2 - Demon Boy] Ayy, Demon Boy plant his on the other side, Where the choir hums and the saints reside, Under the pulpit where they preach "be pure", Under the throne where they feel secure, I crack the gold with a blackened nail, Plant it deep where the light turns pale, No one sees, no one hears the sound, Just a little black root in the holy ground. I laugh, but quiet, heh... like Prince taught, Not loud, not proud, just a cold thought, He said "loud war fails, quiet wins, You don't storm heaven, you let it sin." [Pre-Hook - Both] We ain't burnin' heaven down, We lettin' heaven burn itself down, We ain't kickin' in the door, We lettin' the door rot from the floor. [Hook - Both, demonic whisper choir] Plant the seed, let it grow, Where the light don't wanna go, Plant the seed, watch it creep, While the angels fall asleep. Plant the seed, black and cold, In the city paved with gold, One seed, two boys, one plan, Heaven falls from where it stands. [Verse 3 - Hell Boy - What the seed does] Yeah, first day, nothin', cloud still white, Second day, little crack in the light, Third day, angel cough, don't know why, Fourth day, choir off-key when they try to cry, Fifth day, gold tile got a dark stain, Sixth day, saint says a curse word in his brain, Seventh day, river turns a little grey, Prince was right, quiet wins the day. Seed don't scream, seed don't shout, Seed just whispers what you about, "Are you really holy? Are you really clean? Or are you just scared of what you been?" [Verse 4 - Demon Boy - Seed growing] Ayy, seed grow roots like veins in the floor, Reachin' under every holy door, Up through the harps, through the prayer sheets, Through the white robes down to the feet, Now every angel hear a little voice, Not loud, just givin' them a choice, "You cast us out, said we damned, Now look, the damned inside your land." Demon Boy stand over where it's grown, Black flower bloom where white once shone, Petals like ash, smell like sin, Heaven breathes it and breathes again. [Verse 5 - Hell Boy & Demon Boy Trading] Hell Boy: We don't need to fight, we just water, Demon: With every tear they gave our mothers, Hell Boy: With every "no" they said when we begged, Demon: With every prayer they never said, Hell Boy: Seed drink it up, grow tall, grow wide, Demon: Now black vines cover the holy side, Both: Prince said "watch, boys, this how it's done, Heaven falls without a single gun." [Bridge - Prince voice from below, echo] Prince: Is it growin', boys? Both: It's growin'. Prince: Is it showin', boys? Both: It's showin'. Prince: Then let it grow. [Verse 6 - Final Growth] Yeah, now heaven got a shadow it can't sweep, Got a crack that got too deep, Got a laugh where there once was hymn, Got two boys where there once was Him. Hell Boy stand on the cloud, look down, Black flower field where there was white town, Demon Boy laugh, ha... heh... ha... "We didn't break heaven, we just let it see." We planted the seed where they said we can't be, Now the seed is a tree, and the tree is free, Roots in heaven, leaves in hell, Story that the angels never tell. [Final Hook - Big, slow, demonic anthem] Plant the seed, let it grow, Where the holy don't wanna go, Plant the seed, watch it bloom, Black flower in a white room. Plant the seed, Prince was right, You don't need to kill the light, Just plant the dark and let it be, Heaven falls from one small seed. [Outro - Wind, cracking, flower opening] Shhh... hear it grow... Hell Boy planted... Demon Boy planted... Prince watered... Heaven... fell...
