Snakes in the Grass
cinematic neo soul bass-heavyLyrics
[Verse]
Rolling with the crew, thought blood ran thick,
Turned out they phonies, splitting quick.
Smiles masked venom, eyes so cold,
Fake love’s heavy, truth unfolds.
[Verse 2]
Saw you in the rearview, knife in the back,
Thought we were brothers, now heart attack.
Posing in shadows, slithering slick,
Enemies disguised, real ones split.
[Chorus]
Snakes in the grass, sneakin' through the dark,
Venom in the veins, leaving that mark.
Loyalty’s a myth, a mirage in the night,
Enemies in allies, sharpen that knife.
[Verse]
Raised up our glasses, toast to the lies,
Whispered conspiracies in your alibis.
Front row tickets to betrayal's play,
Grinning with a handshake, led me astray.
[Verse 2]
Phantoms of friendship, ghosting the truth,
Hollow camaraderie, shattered in youth.
Mirror reflections, puppets on a string,
Behind the curtain, hear the betrayal sing.
[Chorus]
Snakes in the grass, sneakin' through the dark,
Venom in the veins, leaving that mark.
Loyalty’s a myth, a mirage in the night,
Enemies in allies, sharpen that knife.
