*(Intro)* Yeah... they gave us the board, we gave 'em the corpses Big grin, painted white, welcome to the circus Fuck a fair game — cut the deck, watch me deck 'em *(Verse 1)* Games played like a chess piece, we the pawns on the plate participatin' in our own damn demise, that's fate read between the lines? Bitch, I read 'em in blood crooked clown countin' pieces while he laughin' at us midnight moves calculated, every step is a trap checkmate in the mirror, I been warring with my own shade, black still diggin' through the dirt for the self that's worth found that fucker bleedin' but I dragged him to work *(Hook)* Hear the gears grind while the dead lights flicker voices get loud while the cold night gets thicker clown with a crown and a grin painted wide walkin' through the nightmare with the devil outside Let the bass knock, let the black bells ring devilish thoughts dancin' like a broke-ass king *(Verse 2)* Liars tryna aspire? Bold choice, choke slow every broken choice is another lock I blow open, cold road devils in the distance with a smile full of venom spit it back in they face till they cough up the rent, huh hard to stop the dark actions, that's the old me's ghost screamin' through the static but the nightmare gets wrote honest words buried where they hard to hear but we stunned 'em with the truth — no ears, no fears *(Verse 3)* Every syllable sinister, every rhythm a warning black carnival thunder from midnight to morning music box crackin' while the nightmare keeps callin' painted faces laughin' while the shadows get to crawlin' Glitch in the system and the signal goes red circus music playin' inside of my head bells in the distance with a drumbeat of dread clown keeps smilin' while the whole room drops dead Fuck ya iPhone, I ain't textin' from a drone Android with the bug, I'm the glitch in they throne system keeps spinnin'? I keep on beginnin' they can't kill the signal when I AM the transmission *(Bridge)* Jesus, please — I lost my ears in the deal but I still hear the bass through the fear, that's real dragged out the womb into a system of debt told to sacrifice then they told me forget Nah — I remember every scar, every debt, every sting turn the pressure to power, let the pain get a ring *(Verse 4)* I came through the darkness with a microphone flame turn the fear to the rhythm — REMEMBER the name no crown on my head but the pressure feels royal every rhyme hits hard like a curse in the soil I don't need a weapon when the wordplay cuts I wake up the nightmares that they buried in us evil clown energy with a grin full of static every beat gets twisted, every thought turns erratic The devil at the doorway? Let the bastard in God in my sight, I ain't flinchin' again You can whisper all you want, you don't command me dark imagery surround me — it can't damn me *(Hook)* Hear the gears grind while the dead lights flicker voices get loud while the cold night gets thicker clown with a crown and a grin painted wide walkin' through the nightmare with the devil outside Let the bass knock, let the black bells ring devilish thoughts dancin' like a broke-ass king *(Outro)* Carnival burns underneath midnight skies I sharpen the pen till the pen never dies clown takes the stage, let the nightmare begin grinnin' through the darkness — still refusin' to give in.
