The Serpent is about the dark corners of ones mind, what are in the dark part of thoughts within the subconscious, we tend to lose ourselves within ourselves at times. Do we drown in this darkness or let the venom seep in our veins.
what would you do?
lyrics
Darkness I feel trapped in
this subconscious i'm wrapped up in
in this coffin i'm confined in
in a black hole is where I sin
This dirt thrown will fill my bones
lost in the unknown forever i roam
my name is stone, lost in twilight zones
mind is filled with storms
these horns will grow, they will soon show
eyes in the darkness glow
heartless disguise their lies
so i sow my eyes and ears shut now
then reality hits with that sharp cut
darkness i feel trapped in,
darkness i feel trapped in
I don't have time to waste, only a dream to chase
hoping to capture with this music I make
so, dont thread on me, cus il make you bleed
so sit back, relax, and smoke yo weed
if freedoms what you plead, just sit back, relax, and smoke that....
I dont understand
why you trying to drown me
all i want to do is set you free
get you to run wild and free
get you to join us on these running sprees
open up your mind, freedome is inside you
im not the flu so go and get a clue
open up that third eye in yo mind
and maybe youll see where these vision reside
drown in the sky, and coincide
cut open up your skin, let the venom in
all these lies rise out the veins
blood drips out the pain
all these lies rise out the veins
blood drips out the pain
Darkness I feel trapped in
this subconscious i'm wrapped up in
in this coffin i'm confined in
in a black hole is where I sin
darkness in my mind feels so deadly
tell me why do i feel so empty
what is this empty abyss
that hisses at me
its going right thru me
but lately they hissing has gotten heavy
it feel like they stinging all over my body
these demons are making me sin
now im running wild, like the venom
they summoning curses
they be mumbling
in my brain reality crumbling
they stomachs be grumbling
my fate they play in a sequence
trying to show me future grievance
my heart just trying to find a clearance
my mind bringing me radience
bust it open with a meat clever
im just losing my mind in this darkness
(tell me can you see things clearer)
Darkness I feel trapped in
this subconscious i'm wrapped up in
in this coffin i'm confined in
in a black hole is where I sin
