Wattz - Evil Hearts lyrics

[Verse One] If you look hard enough into a man's soul You may find a pit that's as dark and as deep as a manhole And you can't know, how much evil a man holds Or when his heart turn to stone or when his blood ran cold Behind every corner there's a story to be told About normally people who just morally fold On the road, when I'm touring doing these shows I see it everyday it's right in front of my nose I'm always watching my back from people wanting my doe So I watch how I'm packing and keep a gun in my clothes We ain't put here forever, when it's done I'ma go With a smile knowing I reached every one of my goals But every time I turn around it's like the game wants blood And the thing I most hate is the thing I once loved Snakes coming out the woodwork And everybody is putting out their hands without putting in footwork For money, some hit the block hard and push work Hoping that you hit the rock and get hooked worse Robbed of your innocence and robbed of a life Cause you spend half your time serving out jail sentences We never know if the ending is Going to be a happy one or one where we die when it finishes I read the book of Genesis and have a Revelation Evil is my nemesis, I'm seeking elevation [Hook] {x2} I know the heart of the lie We believe it's in the people Maybe that's the root of evil [Verse Two] Now are we all bad, that's the main question I face Cause I seen a lot things that keep testing my faith Like I've seen a gun shoved in my face And the d**h of a friend who would've gladly caught a slug in my place I never know when and how the reaper might silence me Violently? Or when I sleep at night quietly? I think privately, "Who can I trust?" When my so called friends can look in my eye and lie to me If necessary, y'all should ride and die with me My high times turn to stone cold sobriety Something inside of me turned to brick When my best friend went bad and learned to flip He was a preacher's son in college he deserved respect Now he's coked up calling me, a nervous wreck And one of my crew members used to serve it wet He did a bid now he's back, did he serve his debt? He's on the right path now trying to turn correct But the evil always got us, you ain't learn that yet? [Hook] [Verse Three] There's been times when we've all sin we're quite the same But when it's all said and done, how'd you fight the pain? It's like mind over matter But at times the dark part of our minds overshadow When our hearts lose the battle That's why we poison our body to lose memory And treat ourselves like our own worst enemy We devote time and energy to chasing cash So we do the unspeakable to make it fast But instead of trying to make it last We'd rather spend it at a club watching a chick shake her naked a** Will it ever end? I hate to ask What we do now, probably won't negate the past But these streets are on fire ain't no safest path So in case of emergency, break the gla** Like a state of emergency, these tasteless acts Got my mind spinning and my heart racing fast Cause I'm guilty as the next man for going astray Will I start a good thing just to throw it away? Is my only fact of life The fact that I see the afterlife before I've lived half my life? You can see my pain at times I don't mask it right Instead of crying sometimes I gotta laugh at night Cause the stars in the sky don't seem half as bright It's like the world went dark cause God snatched the light [Hook]
