Eye For An Eye by El Bandito Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The circle of trust, I won't expand the cycle
Turn the world into dust, and proclaiming my title
Cruelty defined, but mainly my on rivals
Rappers on my door, busy explaining the bible
I re-write the holy sentences, then send the bills
My pen dipped in blood, I use a feathered quill
As my weapon of will, I hit the pressure with skills
I saw my life flashing, I was destined to kill
Innocence, fading, when I applied the murder
Sick of this, hatred, that you never heard of
And I could of let it slide, but my foolish pride...
Was increasing up my ego for a foolish crime
Now, convicted for my rhymes, paint the pictures gritty
No saint nor hero just turned one and twenty
Never sobered really, even tho this is my city
Accusations for representing? Then I’ll plead guilty!
[Hook 2x]
Stare into my eyes, you'll see visions of demise
By the time that I was born was the only time I cried
Put my life on the line, an eye for an eye
So all you muthafuckas wanna front can come and die
[Verse 2]
Retaliation was expected for the shit I done commit
Hustlin' quick, even when the sun is lit
Hang with bad people plus the ones who are legit
Never had no faith in me, said I don’t amount to shit
Bunch of speed dealing miserable junkies who wreak havoc
Speakin' faster than I rap creates my sleep patterns
Them pill poppin' religious fanatics in panic
I'm still droppin' them vicious semantics I've crafted
Searching for the next high, drug and self-abuse
Reaching for the next sky, with all ya hellish views
Perception is reality, now put that shit to use
Created an alter ego, named him Hellion Cruel
I think I need to meditate and find a new faith
And you are not alone, no matter what the fuck you face
You really wonder why my heart is filled with hate?
It's cus I am not free, and I know I can't escape
[Hook 2x]
Stare into my eyes, you’ll see visions of demise
By the time that I was born was the only time I cried
Put my life on the line, an eye for an eye
So all you muthafuckas wanna front can come and die
[Verse 3]
Condemned to the fires below for what I wrote
The verdict is I’m guilty for extraordinary flows
Disintegrate the microphones, then I expose...
Sub-atomic particles visible for ya opticals
I make the most impossible things logical
I take props, even if it ain't propable
It’s so comical ... I'm unstoppable
Take you deep beneath where the miles are nautical
I rap over ya album beats and body your career
So scream for eternity, nobody's gonna care
This is hell here, no money or no welfare
I expel queers, demolish you and exhale
I exercise simultaneously while I smoke
The devil's green weed just got me in the zone
Demon spirits in my smoke signals flexin’ gun clips
I don't need medication, need a fuckin' exorcist
[hook 4x]
Stare into my eyes, you'll see visions of demise
By the time that I was born was the only time I cried
Put my life on the line, an eye for an eye
So all you muthafuckas wanna front can come and die
The circle of trust, I won't expand the cycle
Turn the world into dust, and proclaiming my title
Cruelty defined, but mainly my on rivals
Rappers on my door, busy explaining the bible

My pen dipped in blood, I use a feathered quill
