The Dembro Toll
BPM: 82 (Slow, heavy country-trap bounce)Style: Dark Southern Country Rap / Outlaw TrapInstrumentation: Heavy 808 sub-bass, a looping acoustic banjo pluck, snapping trap high-hats, and a distant, echoing slide guitar.[Intro][Sound of Rain Pouring and Wind Howling][Eerie, Crisp Sound of Fingers Tap-Tap-Tapping on a Glass Window Pane][A Slow, Haunting Banjo Melody Starts to Loop][Verse 1 - The Shadow at the Glass][Heavy 808 Bass Drops Instantly with a Snappy Trap Beat][Rap Delivery: Southern Drawl, Gritty, and Defiant]Midnight pouring rain, staring at the ceiling fan,Shadow on the porch, a silhouette of a broken man.Heard that fingernail clicking on the double pane,Yeah, you try to rattle me but I am too insane.Hear that tap-tap-tapping on the window glass?Brought the ghosts of yesterday to dig up the past.You used to be my friend though, walking side by side,Now you’re standing in the dark with nowhere left to hide.[Chorus - The Dembro][Slide Guitar Swells In, Plaintive and Dark][Bass Gets Heavy and Buzzes]Now listen to the dembro ringing in the night,Cutting through the shadows underneath the porch light.Being the human you are, you aren’t gonna win though,Trying to break a monster looking out the window.The roots run deep and the dirt stays cold,A southern gothic story that was never told![Verse 2 - The Turn][Drums Drop Out to Just a Rattling High-Hat and the Banjo]Betrayal tastes bitter like a swallow of the moonshine,Crossed over the border, yeah you stepped across the line.You thought you knew my weakness, thought you had the upper hand,But you’re just flesh and bone standing on my land.So keep on clicking fingers on the cold glass pane,Every single tap is driving me insane,But the dembro keeps on playing and the engine’s gonna crank,Taking all your secrets straight to the riverbank.[Chorus - The Dembro][Full Heavy Country-Trap Beat Explodes Back In]Now listen to the dembro ringing in the night,Cutting through the shadows underneath the porch light.Being the human you are, you aren’t gonna win though,Trying to break a monster looking out the window.The roots run deep and the dirt stays cold,A southern gothic story that was never told![Outro][Beat Fades Out Slowly][Only the Banjo Loop and the Tap-Tap-Tapping on the Window Remain]Used to be my friend though...Aren't gonna win though...Listen to the dembro...[Sound of a Shotgun Shell Chambering: CHCK-CHCK][Tap-tapping abruptly stops][End]
