Ephelant - d**h Bed lyrics
[Verse 1: Time] Let the spotlight cremate me and burn me to ash Let me get what I deserve I wanted this in the past I'm seeing envy in my limelight and d**h in my timeline My third eye's trying to find sight I hope my stars align right I'm laying on my d**hbed contemplating the previous Thinking bout my good deeds along with the devious I tell the man next to me the earth is a hospice I see the reaper in the closet and blood from the faucet He said you never know how long you'll be here Yesterday I was 20 now there's ghosts in the mirror I ignored all my friends and neglected my family Only to impress record execs who couldn't stand me He said I went after victories and only found defeats But I met experience on all of those cross streets He said if you have nothing, don't die to defend it The truth was born straight but greed will bend it He said the past is a ghost and the future is a phantom And if you time travel, they'll hold you for ransom He said he was Jack Daniel's hostage and guilty of gossip He said he heard d**h knocking, then he stopped talking His first experience of freedom was after his d**h Because during his life he was a slave with every breath I ripped open the curtain and saw a familiar stare Cardiac arrest, flat line he wasn't there [Hook: Nonnahs] What if you knew that this breath was your last? Would you use it to complain or use it to laugh? This isn't about how I died on my d**hbed It's about how I got up, made it and left it [Verse 2: Time] The nurse ran in followed by the doctor They tried to resuscitate but they said they lost him Life's too fast my vitals started to crash Immortality times zero you do the math They said I had a fever temperature 451 No light in the tunnel just a laugh and a loaded gun I see the undertaker digging he's one foot down I'm napping in my casket, a future seed for the ground Now I'm 2 feet deep, I'm seeing flashes of my life My coffin's a cocoon I'm just a bu*terfly knife 3 feet now, give the gravedigger a hat trick The doctor's doing CPR I'm back on the mattress 4 feet deep. I see the worms got their dinner plates I'm see the highway to hell, there's a wreck on the interstate One more foot, now he's down 5 He says d**h is how much of your dies while still alive 6 feet now I take my last breath He says "Are you fighting for your life or fighting for your d**h?" I push open the casket and wake up on the mattress It was all theatrics, they were all actors The doctor, the man, the nurse, they were all me I was locked inside of my mind and their thoughts set them free The undertaker, the shovel, the grave, they were all me I was locked inside of my mind and my thoughts set me free [Hook: Nonnahs] What if you knew that this breath was your last? Would you use it to complain or use it to laugh? This isn't about how I died on my d**hbed It's about how I got up, made it and left it
