Split Tongues

Two masks

One mic

One light

Pick a side (hey!)

I came out the crawlspace

Mud on my chain, blood on my lace

Grandma said pray, I sharpened my teeth

Carved my name in the back of the priest

Talk cheap?

I barter with secrets

Tattooed my sins in invisible ink

They only show when the room start sinking

You only glow when the wound start thinking

I’m the rumor that grew legs

Walked in your house, took your meds

Sat on the bed where your nightmares beg

Tucked you in with a voice in your head (shhh)

Two mouths, one grave, we speak in split tongues

If you hear your name echo, then you already done

Male voice, female voice, same rage in the lungs

We don’t rap, we raise the dead with these horrorcore lungs (yeah, yeah)

Two masks, one face, can’t tell where we from

If you feel your heart racing, better pray it go numb

Male voice, female voice, hear the drum of your blood

We don’t rap, we drag you down, drag you down in the mud (down, down)

I bloom like a bruise on a pale wrist

Lip gloss stained with your last wish

Laugh in the dark, that’s a slit in the silence

Turn every touch into slow violence

Pretty little snake in a thrifted dress

Tongue like a scalpel under your breath

I kiss that cross on your nervous chest

Then twist that faith till the chains confess

You wanted an angel?

I crawled out the drain

Mascara tears running ink through your veins

You call it a verse

I call it a curse

I mouth every fear till you feel it in reverse (rewind)

Two mouths, one grave, we speak in split tongues

If you hear your name echo, then you already done

Male voice, female voice, same rage in the lungs

We don’t rap, we raise the dead with these horrorcore lungs (oh yeah)

Two masks, one face, can’t tell where we from

If you feel your heart racing, better pray it go numb

Male voice, female voice, hear the drum of your blood

We don’t rap, we drag you down, drag you down in the mud (drag you down)

Who’s in your mirror?

(me)

Who’s in your phone?

(me)

Who’s in that creak on the stair

When you think you’re alone? (you’re not)

Two mouths, one grave, we speak in split tongues

If you hear your name echo, then you already done

Male voice, female voice, same rage in the lungs

We don’t rap, we raise the dead with these horrorcore lungs

Two masks, one face, can’t tell where we from

If you feel your heart racing, better pray it go numb

Male voice, female voice, hear the drum of your blood

We don’t rap, we drag you down, drag you down in the mud (hey!)
