Toxic Bloom

[Intro | sultry female vocal | eerie synths | light reverb] (Whispers...) Welcome to the garden, Gotham. [Spoken word] Concrete is just a weed I haven't pulled yet. [Verse 1 | rap | stereo panning echoes | sparse instrumentation] Step into the greenhouse, breathe in the spores (Breathe in) Mother Nature's knocking, breaking down your doors Pamela's dead, the Ivy's alive Watch the vines creep while the city takes a dive [adlib uh] Toxic in my veins, chlorophyll in the blood Washing out the filth with a botanical flood [Pre-Chorus | build | rising tension] [Sultry] One kiss is a cure... Two kisses, you're mine Wrap you up so tight in the root and the vine [Chorus | explosive drop | 808 sub bass | off-beat hi-hats | snare rolls] BOW DOWN to the green queen, ruling the night (Ruling the night) Lethal injection, blooming so bright I'm the rose with the thorns, baby, I'm the disease Bringing the Bat and the boys to their knees (To their knees) [Verse 2 | rap | driving | punchy] Got the pheromone drip, got the world in a trance Make the billionaires empty their pockets and dance [adlib yeah] Arkham can't hold me, a cell's just a pot Give me water and light, watch me take the whole block Mutant flytraps snapping on the beat Tearing up the asphalt, reclaiming the street [Bridge | breakdown | minimal instrumentation | silence] [Mocking laughter] You really thought you could pave over paradise? [Spoken word] Nature always wins. [Final Chorus | Energy: High | wide stereo | anthemic] [Belting] BOW DOWN to the green queen, ruling the night (Ruling the night) Lethal injection, blooming so bright I'm the rose with the thorns, baby, I'm the disease Bringing the Bat and the boys to their knees [adlib boom] [Outro: Fade out | ambient | distant echoes] [Whispers] Return to the earth... Just sleep... (Sleep...)
