Testo Return of the Antagonist - Grits
Testo della canzone Return of the Antagonist (Grits), tratta dall'album Grammatical Revolution
The antagonist has got me locked in the room
The door's shut behind me
It'll be morning before they find me
I hear a finger snap
Cause I'm still giving half
The antagonist has got me locked in the room
The door's shut behind me
It'll be morning before they find me
I hear a finger snap
Cause I'm still giving half
When I first moved to Nashville
Didn't know about the legend of the serial spiritual murderer
(Antagonist)
He thrived on those whose calling was music ministry
Spotted several times during GMA week
(Antagonist)
His approach was lunch meats and sessions at studios
Sometimes he was seen at the show
(Antagonist)
Creeping in silence like a prowler in hunt
Peeping through windows, vanishing as the wind blows
Black cape, white mask by night
Best friend or acquaintance by day
Someone you would least expect this plight
To be carried out, put on display
(Antagonist)
Waiting for the point of vulnerability
Suddenly when I was alone, no one around
Voices telling me to give up
Staring at the ceiling, praying they'll shut up
(Finish talking to me man)
Choose, they say, darkness or light
Good and bad don't mix, either black or white
And for a moment, the room turns gray
A foggy haze and I hear a voice say
(You're still a boy)
Follow me completely and the world is yours
You'll never get ahead trying to worship some lord
And at that same moment I heard lightning strike
And through the foggy haze I saw a image of light
(I can see)
Get behind me said the voice to another
Bow once again ye father of sins
And for you, make a choice now
Lay your life down, or be spat from my mouth
Hypocrisy is one of the sins I most hate
Don't become a victim
Of the antagonist
It was a dark and stormy night, just like this one
Trip when I was gripped by fear, it overcame me
Ooh, be the sinister eyes, ooh
Looking in my window, antagonist, antagonist
Do I scream, uh-uh, you can't forget that
Occasion, shadow chasing, face to face with Jason
Swinging wildly in the dark and brought to bode down the hallway
Emphasis on menace and nemesis
From Genesis, the one I'm calling antagonist
It's just you and me boy
His main three objectives, steal, kill, and destroy
Not of this world, the principality I wrestle
Conditioned apparition, he drawn in my whole position
What to do, it ain't over, ain't no way this is through
Was I, was I up to unmastered task without crew
Round two, slinging prayer like a crack dealer
To release a feeler, hands shaking like a faith healer
Take that, uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh
You big and bad to infiltrate my pad
Let's finish this once and for all, antagonize
We meet in the kitchen, you versus me and Adonai
Excitement finished, brutal fight to the death
From my right side he vanished, reappear on my left
He thinks somehow his trickery will gain him the victory
Deceived, fooled into believing his own imagery
Antagonist, antagonist, squeezing on my game plan
Abuse, no use, fight the titan build up
Just when I get loose the door shut
(X3)
