Futility

(Intro) Yeah. Uh. Lock the door. Ain't no comin' back from this one. Nah. (Chorus) Let the sky burn, let the ash rain heavy I'm ridin' with you, hands bloody but steady Ain't no escape, fate locked in a casket One path, one shot — no room in the basket It's do or die, I spit the truth, not neutral The end is here, resistance? That's futile (Verse 1) I been countin' sins like receipts in my pocket Every promise I broke, every line that I crossed, shit Mama prayed for a son, got a storm in a bottle Now I'm shiftin' gears, full throttle, no brake, no apostle They talk peace but they sleep with a knife in the pillow I done seen grown men turn to ghosts in the willow So don't preach me no sermon, don't hand me no halo I'm a product of pressure, a beast in the shadows Cuss the world if I want, 'cause it cursed me first Every verse is a hearse, every word is a burst (Chorus) Let the sky burn, let the ash rain heavy I'm ridin' with you, hands bloody but steady Ain't no escape, fate locked in a casket One path, one shot — no room in the basket It's do or die, I spit the truth, not neutral The end is here, resistance? That's futile (Verse 2) Fuck a reset, fuck a second chance I dance with the devil, he taught me the steps Blood on my Nikes, I'm walkin' through debt Every breath is a threat, every step is a bet They want me to fold? I was born in the wreck I was raised by the wolves, fed lies from the neck Now I'm back with a vengeance, no slack in the tension My DNA vengeance, my heartbeat a weapon You talkin' 'bout love? I don't know that emotion I know loyalty, violence, and deep devotion To the ones who remained when the ship was sinkin' To the code that I kept when my mind was drinkin' Poison, pain, and the promise I made To bury my fears in the dirt where they laid So let the sky burn, I ain't runnin' for shade I'm a walkin' inferno, I'm already flame (Bridge) Heavy is the head that wears the crown of thorns I been dyin' since the day that I was born No cap, no mask, no pretendin' no more It's the end of the beginning, and I'm kickin' down the door (Chorus) Let the sky burn, let the ash rain heavy I'm ridin' with you, hands bloody but steady Ain't no escape, fate locked in a casket One path, one shot — no room in the basket It's do or die, I spit the truth, not neutral The end is here, resistance? That's futile (Outro) Futile. Yeah. Futile. Ash rain. Sky burn. Ride. One shot. Gone.
