Slaine - Slaine Is Dead lyrics

I chewed a hole in my soul
And I was still starving
This fucking demon in my head
Is like a drill sergeant
Fuck this EP dawg, you need a real album
A deal with 'em Malcolm
And a pill problem, again
To go and get your face off the milk carton
You've been on since you been starting
All that sobriety shit
Dieting trying to quit
Fighting and hiding out from society sick
Come back parting your head to
The side and it slit
It's so exciting when all the
Girls are riding your dick
Look what your writing
It's falling off a cliff
You know the cure for that though
Go get an eight ball and a fifth
Pour the Jamie, light a smoke
Take a whole and a sniff
Birthed with the curse and cursed
To call it a gift fuck the bullshit talk and
All this positiveness
Your heart's in the right place
We'll give your jaws an assist
But lets get back to this madness
Back to this money
Back to these habit's that I
Have to become me i can almost feel the fire
Burning back in my stomach
Heard the whispers of the public
And they practically hung me
They said I had a good run, I would fly some
Then crash and burn they say
The good die young
The thought of it made him bang his head
It's the word on the street, it's spread
That Slaine is dead

It's been so long, you see my face
While I come back to plead my case
When I'm gone and time comes to
Make a leap of faith
There's no way to keep the secret safe
That Slaine is dead

Slaine is dead slaine is dead
They say Slaine is dead

So many dark days they
Have ruptured my patience
I'd like to part ways but
I'm stuck in the matrix
See I've been out of luck
So corrupted and faithless
And now without a buck I'm like
Fuck it I hate this so many close calls
All these brushes with greatness
But not enough to power my spaceship
Not enough to persuade the gods right
And face where they sit
As they parade the dogs of war off they cliff
And as I fell from grace
Through the winds of sin
I had to go and find my wings again
While the angel of death goes
And sings the hymn as he strangle my breath
Tore me limb from limb
Will you let your soul slip to the other side
Will the caterpillar turn into the butterfly?
I can see the pain falling
From my mothers eyes
But, I keep on falling for these fucking lies
Still my mind holding on to
The liquor and coke
And my fire almost out but
There’s a flicker of hope
In these institution walls where
They kickin' the dope
I'm reminded of the power of
That shit that I wrote
I walk with the devil, talking to God
Murder stories in this purgatory
Coughing up blood
But, I will not break, I will not fall
This is just another rhyme that
I wrote on my wall

It's been so long, you see my face
While I come back to plead my case
When I'm gone and time comes to
Make a leap of faith
There's no way to keep the secret safe
That Slaine is dead

Slaine is dead slaine is dead
They say Slaine is dead slaine is Dead!
