Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Been bitin' my tongue Chewin' on rust Smile in my face While they grind my trust They poke They pry They tug that chain One more inch I might lose my name (hey!) [Chorus] You keep pushin' me too far You keep takin' it too far Gonna call things to order Child Gonna show you who you are Even the devil won’t like that smoke Devil won’t like that smoke Blood Friend or foe I swear I will lay you in that yolk [Verse 2] Got kin at my table Playin' both ends Laugh in my kitchen Poison in their hands Smile like Sunday Heart cold as stone Think my mercy Gonna be their home (mm-hmm) [Chorus] You keep pushin' me too far You keep takin' it too far Gonna call things to order Child Gonna show you who you are Even the devil won’t like that smoke Devil won’t like that smoke Blood Friend or foe I swear I will lay you in that yolk [Bridge] When I draw that line Ain’t no steppin' back When I speak that word Skies turn black Even hellfire shivers When I say so Blood Friend or foe You gon' answer when I call (oh yeah) [Chorus] You keep pushin' me too far You keep takin' it too far Gonna call things to order Child Gonna show you who you are Even the devil won’t like that smoke Devil won’t like that smoke Blood Friend or foe I swear I will lay you in that yolk

Raw, up-tempo delta blues stomp, male vocals channeling Big Mama Thornton attitude; detuned slide guitar and thumping upright bass driving a chugging groove. Snare cracks hard on the backbeat, with gritty harmonica fills answering vocal phrases. Choruses explode with gang shouts and claps; verses stay tight and tense, leaving space for snarled, story-driven lines. Occasional stop-time hits to spotlight the threat in the lyric., delta blues
