Split Lyrics by Z. SMITH

Scorched

2020

[Verse 1]
Hold up, be quiet while I dust off my instrument
A weapon of destruction, combustion is now imminent
A vengeance driven vision's now blurring all my decisions
While my inner voice is screaming, "Enough's enough, isn't it?"
Yo, move on, grow up
Why you worried 'bout a fuckin' crowd who never showed up
Look at how you rose up
Close your eyes and listen to the people that have shown love
The only thing I hear is the ammo as it loads up
A spark igniting gasses from massive amounts of matches
To light the world on fire, creating an axis of ashes
A blazе that fogs the glasses of a kid who is picked last
Whеre a lyric's a bullet
To the masses who outcast him and watched him
Struggle on the floor - dirt poor, all ignored
Cry his eyes out in the day but at night throw on that uniform
Nah - this is more than me
More than writing raps
This is for the kid who needs fire to fight back
This is Z

[Hook]
'Cause I got one voice talkin'
The other don't listen
Two people taking one place
Two cooks in the kitchen
Whose got the key to my senses?
I swear it's been hidden
It's like I've got a breached mind
That makes split decisions

Theres a - divide
That I - can't hide
There's a - lease signed with two lives in one face
Rewind
Find the - peace sign
I will - be fine when both kill in one day

[Verse 2]
This is Jekyll & Hyde, but hide is what I can't do
How the hell you handle a mind that misunderstands you
With the glass that I ran through
The mud that I swam through
Yet infection in my body comes from a brain
That has planned to
Use the hands that have hugged my mother to strike fear in another
But these other fuckin' people are ones I used to call brothers
So soon it's I who is smothered
Retribution turned obsession
Back up Mrs. Caruthers
I think I need to seek cover
But I want war with the public
That has left me in exile
With time & preparation
That's an equation that fades smiles
Add a choice, an ultimatum of self worth
Mix it with the thorns that made me think I was well cursed
An excerpt - but this peasant doesn't accept dirt
Blood is what I want, I'm not concerned with my net worth
Red is on my shirt, I got a taste but it gets worse
My thirst is on display, I bet you'll love it
I'm well versed

[Hook]
'Cause I got one voice talkin'
The other don't listen
Two people taking one place
Two cooks in the kitchen
Whose got the key to my senses?
I swear it's been hidden
It's like I've got a breached mind
That makes split decisions

Theres a - divide
That I - can't hide
There's a - lease signed with two lives in one face
Rewind
Find the - peace sign
I will - be fine when both kill in one day

[Verse 3]
Yeah I've worked so hard and alone that my bones
Have cracked from thrown stones
My sweat is now cold
But I still walk tall from the morning to the evening
Every damn minute goes to calming down the demons - 'cause
They're not content with my actions speaking
They need it to be known that I was left bleeding
Starving, watching those around me feeding
How can I sleep when doubters are still breathing?

[Hook]
'Cause I got one voice talkin'
The other don't listen
Two people taking one place
Two cooks in the kitchen
Whose got the key to my senses?
I swear it's been hidden
It's like I've got a breached mind
That makes split decisions

Theres a - divide
That I - can't hide
There's a - lease signed with two lives in one face
Rewind
Find the - peace sign
I will - be fine when both kill in one day
