lyrics

I’m the villain mister batman, empathetically bane
Shifting gears and changing in irrational lanes
Small hands big slaps unforgettable pain
Foundation turns to ruins I’ll just watch it decay
Then we stop ha, pull the pin on grenades
Toss em under tracks exposing your tank
While the goons are running up attacking your flank
With a sawed off shotty to the temple your made
The scorn on your face reveals the hate and disdain
For the ones that shut down your foolish riot campaign
They call it crowd control, another rank up the chain
But I’m the Motherfucker that’s derailing the train
When the locomotive stops right in front of your bank
Give the password to the lock that’s controlling the gate
You thought we were cops? fool quit drawing a blank
Cause The ticking of the clock is predicting your fate

Chorus
Burn that bridge, I’ll spread the ashes the ashes
Burn that bridge, I’ll spread the ashes the ashes
Burn that bridge, I’ll spread the ashes the ashes
Set that shit on fire cause you’re nothing but the past kid

Burn that bridge, I’ll spread the ashes the ashes
Burn that bridge, I’ll spread the ashes the ashes
Burn that bridge, I’ll spread the ashes the ashes
let that shit burn I’ll spread the ashes on your casket

Chorus 2
Arms and scrolls
The fire’s burning and it’s lost control
It’s getting closer til it grabs your soul
The skyline’s falling as we stoke the coals
Listen as the city burns

Mayhem ensuing, city blocks in ruins
Chief of command? Bitch you’ve lost you’re influence
Respect is always earned never given by pursuance
Drowning deadbeat, Now you’re lost in the movement
Choose quick, while the followers are still lucid
Uprising of the populace, these lambs are so stupid
Loose brick, thrown by the mob, they’re growing ruthless
Crack you in the dome leave that face fucking toothless
Slaughter house amusement, remains go unrecovered
Sifting through debris, another angel for the mother
The last one standing, the second oldest brother
Providing for the family, a dinner for the buzzard
Scraps is all he gets, that’s all he really needs
He only needs enough to fight through the fatigue
The war is waging on, divergent dirty deeds
With his ax he carries on, through the battle he proceeds


Chorus

Here we go again, conflict on the street
The deck begins to sway, about a thousand underneath
Keep your hands above your head, it’s easier to breathe
Let the brimstone drown you, purify the sea
But the sulfur in your lungs, will bury you alive
Huffing harder than before positions compromised
Pounding in your chest, the game just to survive
Rushing martyr becomes floored you’re a worthy sacrifice
That moment of fruition, realizing you’ve been cursed
Strikes you deep within your core envisioning the worst
The town has gone to shambles one more powderkeg burst
We found the reason war, they’re bloody for the thirst
Not easily coerced, you hear those storm clouds rumble
Shaken even startled, disoriented stumble
Coherent just enough to see the magnitude of struggle
You rise to your feet I’ll watch that skyline crumble
