IN YOUR MOMENT OF PLEASURE... IN YOUR NEW TIME OF GREED... YOU MUST WATCH FOR THE DECEPTION CAUSE IN YOUR FIELDS THEY WILL BREED. WATCH THE CROPS ON GROWIN HIGHER DONE PUT IN WORK INTO THE SOIL DIRT UNDERNEATH YOUR FINGERNAILS... AND NOW IT'S TIME TO TOIL THEY'RE SWARMING IN! FROM A SEED TO-EACH SUNSET-OUTSIDE WITH THE DAYS OF TIME I SEE THE PRIDE RESIDE STEADY STACKIN AS IM MACKIN TO THE POINT OF NO RETURN THERE-DOWN-DEEP-YA IT’S-TIME TO LEARN. INSIDE THE FIELDS OF MY WICKED DAYS LIES AN ENEMY A PLAGUE OF THE EVIL WAYS JUST SOME SMALL THING BUT IT GETS THE CREW RETURN LIKE AN ARMY AND DESTROY ALL OF YOU DESTROY ALL OF ME UNLESS I BRING GUARD AND THE FIGHT IS HARD MAINTAIN THE YARD KEEPING DEAD THINGS CHARRED BURNING ALL THAT’S IN THE WAY SEEIN MY FOES AND GOES ALL WAYS RIGHT THERE DOWN DEEP AT THE BASE AT THE ROOT WHAT YOU SEW YOU REAP. SOME SMALL THING LEAVE IT THERE UNCHECKED IT MULTIPLIES-RETURNS LEAVES EVERYTHING WRECKED! WHEN YOU'RE... FEELING THE SEASON... WHEN YOUR SUMMER WIND BLOWS THROUGH SMILE AT YOUR HARVEST BUT REMEMBER THAT SOMEONE ELSE IS WATCHING TOO YOU WILL NEVER KNOW THE MOMENT NO YOU WILL NEVER KNOW THE HOUR JUST WHEN YOU DROP YOUR GUARD THEY'LL STRIKE- SO SLEEP NAIVE AND THEY'LL DEVOUR... THEY'RE SWARMING IN! APETITE NEVERENDING WATCH THEM FEAST ONE-BY-ONE TAKE IT PIECE BY PIECE HUNGER NEVER ENDS BUT IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE WAY WE CHOOSE CUZ CAUTION DEFENDS BUILD BAD HABITS AND A STUBBORN MIND IF YOU CALL BACK THE THINGS YOU HAD LEFT BEHIND (THEN IT) FLIES ON IN (AND) STARTS TO UNWIND IT’S JUST A MATTER OF TIME …SAID A MATTER OF TIME.
