[Verse 1]
Smilin’ in your face
While they sharpen the blade
Talk sweet like honey
But the venom’s been made
Handshake
Hug
Eyes cold as the grave
They toast to your name
While they plot out your grave
Fake love on repeat
Performative tears
They’ll sell your whole story
For a couple of cheers
Screenshots ready
Like a weapon they save
They pray for your healing
While they dig out your cave
[Chorus]
Snakes in silk
Wolves that purr
Call you “bro”
Just to watch you burn
Big wide grins
With a rusted core
Say they ride for life
But they’re keepin’ score
Snakes in silk
And they bless your name
Hug you tight
While they feed the flame
If I feel that hiss
Then I’m out that door
I’ve seen this trick
I’m not fooled no more (nah)
[Verse 2]
They love you on the way up
Hate you when you land
Quote your pain in a caption
For a couple of fans
Turn your scars to a skit
Dress your hurt as a brand
Then say “it’s all love”
With your blood on their hands
So I move light
Circle gettin’ small
If you clap for my falls
You don’t clap at all
I’d rather sit lone
Than be fed to the crowd
I’d rather stay quiet
Than be praised out loud
[Chorus]
Snakes in silk
Wolves that purr
Call you “bro”
Just to watch you burn
Big wide grins
With a rusted core
Say they ride for life
But they’re keepin’ score
Snakes in silk
And they bless your name
Hug you tight
While they feed the flame
If I feel that hiss
Then I’m out that door
I’ve seen this trick
I’m not fooled no more (yeah)
