Leland - Thief lyrics

[Verse 1] Gonna plant the trees in my mind 'til they grow through the floor And the roots will swell so thick That they split through the boards [Pre-Chorus] I was in the ground with the bad seed But I'm not gonna lift them off of me I'm not gonna obey my prophecy I'm looking at my past through puzzling me Will I consequent my identity? There's no guardian angel over me [Chorus] I'm a thief and I'm not trying to hide ('cause this is hunting season I'm not gonna have more reason) I'm a thief and the virtue is my vice ('cause this is hunting season I'm not gonna have more reason) I will proudly stand accused I got everything to lose I'm not looking for a fight I'm a thief and I'm taking what is mine [Verse 2] Gonna stretch these bones in my limbs 'til they find a way out Gonna be that girl in the mirror That wasn't allowed [Pre-Chorus] I was in the ground with the bad seed But I'm not gonna lift them off of me I'm not gonna obey my prophecy I'm looking at my past through puzzling me Will I consequent my identity? There's no guardian angel over me [Chorus] I'm a thief and I'm not trying to hide ('cause this is hunting season I'm not gonna have more reason) I'm a thief and the virtue is my vice ('cause this is hunting season I'm not gonna have more reason) I will proudly stand accused I got everything to lose I'm not looking for a fight I'm a thief and I'm taking what is mine Taking what is mine, mmm [Bridge] Coming up a mountain And the dirt is in my nails Machete in the forest And I'm clearing my trails What it means for it? To a yellow stained soul This is what my choice is When the writing's on the wall [Chorus] I'm a thief and I'm not trying to hide ('cause this is hunting season I'm not gonna have more reason) I'm a thief and the virtue is my vice ('cause this is hunting season I'm not gonna have more reason) I will proudly stand accused I got everything to lose I'm not looking for a fight I'm a thief and I'm taking what is mine
