[Intro]
Yeah
Tail up, fangs out
Step close
Get laid out
[Verse 1]
Walk in the room like a hex in the doorway
Eyes on red, I’ve been sleeping in warfare
Pins in the doll, put your face in the corkboard
Mouth still talking? I’m cutting the sound cord
Venom in the veins when I write out my rage
Little black book, put your name on a page
Circle of chalk where your last words echo
Shadow on the wall when the fuse say “let go”
Sick of these clowns with the hollow bravado
They soft in the middle like overcooked pasta
I’m cold in the middle, exoskeleton armor
Sting so silent, paramedic need karma
[Chorus]
I’m a scorpion, step in the ring, I promise you bleed
Got a bomb in my palm, whole block on my creed
Voodoo on the tongue, I curse what you need
Say my name once
Watch your whole life leave
I’m a scorpion, scorpion, buried in your dreams
Got a bomb in my palm, blow holes in your schemes
Voodoo on the tongue, I talk and you freeze
Say my name once
Watch your whole life leave
[Verse 2]
Hands on the thread of your heartbeat, tug that
Play with your fate like a switch, then shrug that
Mask on the shelf, I don’t need to pretend
I’m the storm at the start and the flame at the end
Got a circle in the dirt with your footprint centered
Salt in the cut, let the wound feel tender
Smoke in the air, taste iron and brimstone
Every step you take got my mark in the skin tone
I don’t argue with insects, I walk through the hive
Put the torch to the nest, watch the stories they write
Say they deadly but they crawl when the timer tick
Hear that click?
Whole crowd hit the ground quick
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Tail curl, spine straight, I don’t backtrack
[low vocal register] Venom drip, slow burn through the backchat
Eyes roll white when the chant get louder
Name in the dust, then ash, then powder
[whispered vocals] Count down
Three… two… gone
One breath left?
I own that one
[Chorus]
