Snakes In My House
Lyrics
Verse 1
You ate at my table
Then bit my hand
Smiled in my face
Plotted in the stands
Talk like a brother
Move like a leak
Always need favors
Never got a plate for free
You sold small lies
For a bigger seat
Now your whole circle
Got poison on your teeth
I see the hiss
When you say my name
House full of cobras
Trying to wear my chain
Pre-Chorus
I heard the grass move
I heard the truth crawl
Every fake hand
Trying to make me fall
You came for the gold
Left mud in my door
Now I lock my soul
When you knock anymore
Chorus
Snakes in my house
Snakes in my house
I fed you trust
You spit it out
Snakes in my house
Snakes in my house
Cross my line
And you get cut down
(Backstab!)
(Dead smile!)
(Snakes in my house)
Verse 2
You use good names
Like keys and doors
Borrowed my light
Then broke the floor
Took what I built
Then called it yours
Now you act holy
With blood on your drawers
I keep receipts
I keep the scars
I know who you are
When the room goes dark
Say you were down
But you came for the crown
Fell in my shadow
And dragged me down
Pre-Chorus
I heard the grass move
I heard the truth crawl
Every fake hand
Trying to make me fall
You came for the gold
Left mud in my door
Now I lock my soul
When you knock anymore
Chorus
Snakes in my house
Snakes in my house
I fed you trust
You spit it out
Snakes in my house
Snakes in my house
Cross my line
And you get cut down
(Backstab!)
(Dead smile!)
(Snakes in my house)
Bridge
Now the mask burns off
Now the lies get loud
I was built from the break
I don't bow to a crowd
You can hiss all you want
You can coil in shame
I know the bite of a friend
That forgot my name
Final Chorus
Snakes in my house
Snakes in my house
I fed you trust
You spit it out
Snakes in my house
Snakes in my house
Cross my line
And you get cut down
Snakes in my house
Snakes in my house
I see the fangs
When you grin and shout
(Backstab!)
(Dead smile!)
(Snakes in my house)
