[00:00.00]Black Birds
[00:02.72]
[00:04.56]Drop that / get up
[00:05.62]Take to the streets / better lock that kid up
[00:07.82]Face full of teeth when he hock that spit up
[00:10.17]Pacing the beat like a beast
[00:11.91]Rocking the block on repeat
[00:13.53]Speak from the cut like a rush of blood
[00:15.53]Paint red on the sleeves of the ones you love
[00:17.52]Lay the sick ones down and the bells will ring
[00:20.07]Put pennies on the eyes let the dead men sing
[00:26.90]I shiver and shake the warm air cold
[00:30.83]I’m alone on my own
[00:35.99]In every mistake I dig this hole
[00:39.98]Through my skin and bones
[00:45.15]It’s harder starting over
[00:49.73]Than never to have changed
[00:53.94]With Blackbirds following me
[00:58.86]I’m digging out my grave
[01:03.10]They close in, swallowing me
[01:07.93]The pain, it comes in waves
[01:12.53]I’m getting back what I gave
[01:26.38]I sweat through the sheet as daylight fades
[01:30.25]As I waste away
[01:35.37]It traps me inside mistakes I’ve made
[01:39.38]That’s the price I pay
[01:44.52]It’s harder starting over
[01:49.04]Than never to have changed
[01:53.42]With Blackbirds following me
[01:58.22]I’m digging out my grave
[02:02.62]They close in, swallowing me
[02:07.40]The pain, it comes in waves(YEAH)
[02:11.84]I’m getting back what I gave
[02:17.11]I drop to the floor like I did before
[02:18.95]Stop watching / I’m coughing / I can’t be more
[02:21.38]What I want and what I need are at constant war
[02:23.47]Like a well full of poison / a rotten core
[02:25.80]The blood goes thin / the fever stings
[02:27.92]And I shake from the hell that the habits bring
[02:30.16]Let the sick ones down / the bells will ring
[02:32.58]Put pennies on the eyes / let the dead men sing
[02:35.15]With Blackbirds following me
[02:39.50]I’m digging out my grave
[02:43.81]They close in, swallowing me
[02:48.54]The pain, it comes in waves
[02:53.02]I’m getting back what I gave
[03:02.21]I’m getting back what I gave
[03:11.24]I’m getting back what I gave
