E-Manual Zi - Six Letter Lullaby Lyrics

Are you listening? Can you hear me?
I know you're there, 'cause you never let me be
Every day, every night the same routine
Never a moment of rest, why do you plague me?
You're a curse, a damn thorn in my side
You traumatize n' terrorize, but why?
Could corrupt any soul, why's it gotta be mine?
What did I do to deserve INX I?
N' what purpose do you serve in the first place?
You smell a drop of blood, then you give chase
I guess swimmin' with the sharks was my mistake
And before I knew it, every bone was up to break
I can't shake this overwhelming hate
This rage builds as you twist n' turn my fate
Puttin' the screws to me, makin' me a basket case
Laughin' like Walter White in his crawlspace
For f*ck sake, why don't you just go away?
I'm already underwater just row away
Or is that it? Are you feeding off of my pain?
A f*ckin' wraith who waits to pray off of my dismay
I'm callin' you out, so face me
You say that you're the fear, I'm not afraid, B
N' even if you become the death of me
I'll drag your ass back to hell with me screaming

Hey, Zi, why you gotta be so uptight?
All I did was shed some light on your life
Revealing you for the beast that you are
See, I'm not the one who caused all of your scars
When a friend dies, that shit's on YOU
11 times and you still can't face the truth
The proof is right in front of you, don't you see it?
YOU left em' there to die, YOU left em' strung out n' pleadin'
For their lives, cryin' why
As you stood there, silent, staring straight into their eyes
F*ckin' lies you fed em' and misled em'
Your wits done ran off, you better go get em'!
YOU'RE the viper, I'M the f*ckin' venom
Don't shoot the messenger when you're the one who sent em'
Momentum, fuel for the fire that you set
Now you're feeling the heat n' sweat the reget
You were in search of a punishment
Went to the shadowlands where I am the government
You run from the darkness I covetted
Tried to cleanse yourself of the blood you were COVERED in
You get it yet? you did this to YOURSELF
Go ahead, beg, cry, scream for help
No one will hear you at the bottom of the well
You can't drag me down, WE'RE ALREADY IN HELL

I've endured having my life burned to cinders
Watching my heart grow colder than the harshest winters
Barely breathing as the air around me gets thinner
But I swear on my death rattle that I will be claimed the victor
I know better than to listen to your tune
The harmony you say that will lead me to becoming you
That's what you do, infecting open wounds
Ripping apart the host's soul in hopes that it'll die soon
But you f*cked up, you picked the wrong victim
Your whisper's an ailment to which I'll never hold a symptom
You take my haunted memories n' deviously twist em'
But I'm fed up, I won't play a loop in your system
Who the f*ck are you to say I didn't try
To save the lives of my lived ones who left before their time?
From beggin' Adam to put the gun down
Before he hit the f*ckin' floor, after the hammer dropped loud
Or wrappin' Chris in my shirt to stop him from bleedin' out
Watchin' one of my best friends as he slowly faded out
Don't ever tell me I didn't do my best
You'll never know the pain that I harbor in my chest
The fact that you even exist, you oughta feel blessed
Don't test me, INX, you're nothing but a pest
A guest in this vessel I'd be glad to repress
'Cause if I pull this trigger
I'm puttin' us both to rest

(Put me to sleep... with a six letter... a six letter lullaby)
