[Verse 1]
You smile with a serpent tongue
Handshake stiff
Cold lungs
Laugh while you load that gun
At backs you used to lean on
You brag about wrecked-up homes
Screenshot lives on your phone
Turn trust into sharpened stones
Throw them like you own the throne
[Chorus]
What has this world come to
When you proud of another man’s ruin
You crash out
Just to prove
You can break what you ain’t even building
Fake hearts
Dressed up in gold
Rotting out
Yeah
They shining mold
What has this world come to
When you cheer while a good man folds
[Verse 2]
You pray that his girl walks out
You pray that his job falls down
You dance in the fallout cloud
Like you ain’t breathing poison now
You laugh at the kids who cry
Say
“That’s life
” while you pass by
You talk like you’re justified
But you choke when you’re left with quiet
[Chorus]
What has this world come to
When you proud of another man’s ruin
You crash out
Just to prove
You can break what you ain’t even building
Fake hearts
Dressed up in gold
Rotting out
Yeah
They shining mold
What has this world come to
When you cheer while a good man folds
[Bridge]
I see you
Hollow king on a paper throne (hey)
All that dirt that you throw
Grows a grave of your own
So keep wishing my life to bleed
You just feeding a darker beast
I won’t beg and I won’t plead
I rise every time you scheme (every time you scheme)
[Chorus]
What has this world come to
When you proud of another man’s ruin
You crash out
Just to prove
You can break what you ain’t even building
Fake hearts
Dressed up in gold
Rotting out
Yeah
They shining mold
What has this world come to
When you cheer while a good man folds
[Outro]
World gone vile
But I won’t break
You want my life?
Come take my place
