[Verse 1]
Teeth in my back from the past I fed
Blood on my hands, now the stain runs red
Every bad wish that I ever once said
Came back round, tried to sleep in my bed
Felt that snap when the mirror cracked
All those lies that I lied, they were tracking that
Put my worst in a bag, it was dragging back
Engine full guilt, yeah it’s gas in the Cadillac
[Chorus]
I survived when the karma bites
Fangs in my name, still I walk in light
Took my pain, turned it all to rites
Burned my wrongs, now I own my life
I survived when the karma bites
Scars on my soul, they became my stripes
Every hit, I just learn, not hide
Karma swing round, I’ma ride that tide (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Owed that debt, had to pay in sleep
Nightmares billed me, the interest deep
Friends I cut, now they cut me off
Had to taste my own blade, had to cough that loss
Saw my pride get flipped, inverted
All my dirt got dragged to the surface
Every slight I forgot, it remembered me
Every ghost that I made wrote a memory
[Chorus]
I survived when the karma bites
Fangs in my name, still I walk in light
Took my pain, turned it all to rites
Burned my wrongs, now I own my life
I survived when the karma bites
Scars on my soul, they became my stripes
Every hit, I just learn, not hide
Karma swing round, I’ma ride that tide (ride that tide)
[Bridge]
Let it chase, let it snap at my heels (hey!)
I don’t flinch, I just face what’s real
If it’s mine, I’ma claim that weight
Turn that chain to a gold-plated fate
[Chorus]
I survived when the karma bites
Fangs in my name, still I walk in light
Took my pain, turned it all to rites
Burned my wrongs, now I own my life
I survived when the karma bites
Scars on my soul, they became my stripes
Every hit, I just learn, not hide
Karma swing round, I’ma ride that tide
