"The Stakes" lyrics

"The Stakes"
(feat. Kyle Lucas)

I found peace when I gave up my beliefs
It took every single fucking part of me
The end was neigh
My personal rapture
A band of angels
Left me broken and fractured
Cuz mother fucker I will hold the line
Try me bitch I'm too strong to die
Too much on the line to let you in
Drag me through hell
Over and over again

Standing up for mine
This is where I run across the line
This is what I'm fighting for
This is what I'm fighting for
Won't pretend I'm fine
I'm so sick of searching for a sign
This is what I'm fighting for
This is what I'm fighting for

Yeah, now if we bein' honest
Tomorrow that shit ain't promised
I ain't wastin' any more time
Dealing with premadonnas
I unfollowed all my fake friends
Snakes and all piranhas
For the sake of paying homage
I'm dead in all of the drama
Been a stone
That the building refused
Well, scratch that I'm just a bomb
I've been lit at the fuse
So snap back to all them times
Insisted I lose it's half that
It only hurts you
Bout as much as you choose
So match that bhllddap

Be good or be gone
I went all in
When I could've been wrong
(Yeah)
You don't know where I've been
Harden your mind
Thicken your skin
Mindless and violent
No mercy shown
Spineless in silence
Don't fuck with my own
I worship the jackals
No longer repressed
Kept in these shackles
We fight to the death

Standing up for mine
This is where I run across the line
This is what I'm fighting for
This is what I'm fighting for
Won't pretend I'm fine
I'm so sick of
Searching for a sign
This is what I'm fighting for
This is what I'm fighting for

Well, you're the last of us to know
It's exactly what we're made for
And if you
Have one of mine
It's the last thing that you'll ever
It's the last thing that you'll ever do
