[verse 1] Counteract excuses, there's no reason for treason When my trust is vulnerable there's more room to be left with lesions I laid a welcome mat to find respect is what you're stepping on Hid your intentions with a mask, with no surprise you kept it on Who woulda known you'd be my personal Judas? A disciple blinded by the riches to set up his nooses Swallowed up by hype, your frame of mind is turned to black When the limelight is sour I know there ain't no coming back Backstabbing's in style on the road to success And the biters will do what they're known to always do the best Dreamers turn to fiends, the industry s**s em dry To ba*tardize the vision with the point of view of a ba*tards eye Cut me off like a limb and make sure I cauterize And if you take it as a diss I'm sure you caught a rise I'm sure fame has a thing for you, I'm sure you caught her eyes But between what's real and fantasy you gotta call her lies [hook] Your fall from grace (Oh how the mighty have fallen)
