lyrics

CHAI VANG

Now footsteps off, the elevator is broken
Smoke in the iris, hard drive full of viruses
Fire in the hole, entire inquire to know
It’s a spiraling effect, hyperdermic needles in necks
In need of a check mark, the beat is dead heart
I feed it to recharge, the vampire lives on
Holding the vision with sweaty palms
Tears and sweat drop off the arms
Lock the front gate
Sound the alarm
Here comes the radioactive waste
Crumble the castles gates, put lassos below the face
Ssshhh

Now do not make a sound
Until we say
See the tension builds until you can no longer even hold it …
The smoldering smell of inferno, leaves them hopeless
Devoted with the scope open, yet they can not focus
Hold them torches till the dawn of day, till they grow smokeless
Why?

Cause it’s a call of duty, the recipe, the secret potion
I dare you to call onto me
press the correct button sequence

And ill be there in a heartbeat the drums,
Outer world visit
Slaughter house, homes and villages
Spilling blood in man holes, chains hold ankles
Ready to be untangled

It’s the grip of the fist when you know you tied up with strike 2
Surviving on solitude
Provide that little spark to keep it burning inside you
I fight fire with fire
Keep my hands loose
On asphault with blade running shoes, an ambush
the vampire lives on, inside of the beat
provide it with the speech
let the blood freely flow, from the brain down to the feet
either your way or my way, either way it’s a migraine

it’s a migraine
it’s the type of pain that drives the mind insane
it’s the chai vang syndrome
the migraine hits ya
eyes turn red
nothing left to picture
you get better when sicker
load up the chamber
warn em of the danger

lock and load its time to rock and roll
time to rock the show
get them bodies off the floor
