Wolf in Silk
Prayers on my lips, blood on my rings - I'm the wolf in silk Sunday saint, Monday kill - I'm the wolf in silk Your bitch prays, but I'm the god she feels - I'm the wolf in silk Welcome to my eulogy, sit still - I'm the wolf in silk I smile in your face while I'm plottin' your end Your own fuckin' brother, the wolf in the pen They sleep with the sheep while I'm huntin' awake Then I paint the whole pasture red for the stake I'm the wolf in the wool, I'm the fangs in the fleece I'm the one that they send when the peace gotta cease I'm the enforcer, the shooter, the boss's right fist But my eyes on his throne, and that's on my kids Streets talk quiet when they mention my name "Don't speak it too loud, that's a one-way train" Prayers on my lips, blood on my rings - I'm the wolf in silk Baptized in gin, holy water spills - I'm the wolf in silk Your queen on my arm, she loves the thrill - I'm the wolf in silk Testament signed, last meal, last will - I'm the wolf in silk I'm the last face you see 'fore the lights go black I'm the blood in the snow, the claw in the back I live a hundred and ten, blowin' powder and drank Fuckin' hoes 'til they cry, money stinkin' the bank 'Cause tomorrow ain't promised, the reaper's my twin I dig my own grave and I grin as I sin I dance with the devil, he knows me by name We play cards with your life, it's a sick fuckin' game So when you hear the flock scream, when the sheep start runnin' That's me on the prowl, hear the howl comin' For you, motherfucker, your bloodline ends I'm the wolf in the fold, and the feast begins Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the deadest of them all? I see a wolf with bloodshot eyes, diggin' graves in fancy clothes The higher I climb, the colder it gets The throne I'm eyein' is covered in sweat From the brows of the kings that I put in the ground And I swear sometimes I hear their sounds In the wind, in the walls, in the pourin' rain "Your turn next, wolf" - whisperin' my name 'Cause the sheep are gettin' restless, they're startin' to stare They're smellin' the blood underneath my prayer And the boss pats my back, but his smile's gettin' thin He knows I'm the wolf - the question is: who let me in? Prayers on my lips, blood on my rings - I am the wolf in silk Sunday saint, Monday kill - I am the wolf in silk You laughed with the lamb, but slept with the fangs - I am the wolf in silk Now look in my eyes, hear the howl that hangs - I am the wolf in silk Baptized in gin, holy water boils - I am the wolf in silk Your queen on her knees, she worships the spoils - I am the wolf in silk Testament signed, your name in the will - I am the wolf in silk This is my throne now - bow and be still
