Face Eating Leopards (A)

Now I'm bagged, with the rest of their trash. Faith ain't armor, it's just a paper mask. [Mood: accusatory] Punched my ticket to the slaughter;- smiled while I did it, Blind to the warning signs;- proudly committed. Covered my ears when truth came screaming, (That was just fake news, right?) Yeah, I joined their chant with patriotic fire, Didn't see it when they built MY funeral pyre. Thought I'd ride with the tide of the leopard's voice. .. Never thought MY face would be the feast of choice. They said It was just a nibble, Now it’s full-on feast. [Chorus:] They Ate My Face! :- (But I voted for them!). They Ate My Rights! :- (But I stood with them!). Face-eating leopards! :- (What did you expect?). Face-eating leopards! :- (Coming for your neck).. Who's next? You're next! Who's next? ......... Who's next? (You're next! ) Who's next? (You're next!) [Verse 2: Punchy, rapcore staccato, driving, staccato flow] [Instrumentation: Bass groove resumes, bass-heavy, guitar noise and effects] [Mood: Disgusted, furious] The truth crashed through the lies, words burning down like ash. They promised: Trust us:- it's the others who'll crash. Hah!! Now I'm bagged, with the rest of their trash. Faith ain't armor, it's just a paper mask. Blew smoke with 'em, now I'm choking in the dark. Trapped in media chambers where echoes bark ... loud, Broke and hopeless, while fake heroes get crowned. Now I'm draped in a flag, that's become my own shroud. [Vocalist: Spoken, sarcastic, dry tone] "Well... at least the libs didn't win.." [Vocalist: gang vocals, chanted]"EYE - Thought- THEY - were - on - MYYYY side!" [Vocalist: sung, gritty] "Rode the wave like a king in the tide" [Vocalist: gang vocals, chanted]"EYE - Thought- THEY - were - on - MYYYY side!" [Vocal Effect: Radio filter, spoken announcer voice] "Violence broke out at the rally…" "…supporters say they're shocked…" "…devoured by the very party they adored..." [Vocalist: gang vocals, chanted]"EYE - Thought- THEY - were - on - MYYYY side!" [Vocalist: sung, gritty] "Rode the wave like a king in the tide" [Vocalist: gang vocals, chanted]"EYE - Thought- THEY - were - on - MYYYY side!" [Vocal Effect: Radio filter, spoken announcer voice] "Violenc" [Vocalist: Spoken, sarcastic, dry tone] "Well... at least the libs didn't win.." [Vocalist: gang vocals, chanted]"EYE - Thought- THEY - were - on - MYYYY side!" [Vocalist: sung, gritty] "Rode the wave like a king in the tide" [Vocalist: gang vocals, chanted]"EYE - Thought- THEY - were - on - MYYYY side!" [Vocal Effect: Radio filter, spoken announcer voice] "Violenc" [Bridge: Climactic build, Tempo and intensity increase] [Instrumentation: drums pounding, guitar increasing loudness] [Mood: Intense, furious] System's broken, we're all choking, On promises that taste like lies. When the leopards come for feeding time, Every face becomes a prize. [Verse 3: Punchy rapcore rap flow, final accusation] [Instrumentation: Full groove, heavy and driving, chaotic guitar] [Vocalist: aggressive, rapid fire rap] [Mood: Vicious, realized] Clarity cuts like a blade, Carved into my skull way too late. They said "It's just a nibble" , Now they're feasting on our fate. Face-first in regret, Eyes wide with disbelief. Your leopard party membership? Just a ticket to be meat. They said It was just a nibble, Now it’s full-on feast. [Chorus:] They Ate My Face! :- (But I voted for them!). They Ate My Rights! :- (But I stood with them!). Face-eating leopards! :- (What did you expect?). Face-eating leopards! :- (Coming for your neck).. Who's next? You're next! Who's next? ......... Who's next? (You're next! ) Who's next? (You're next!)
