Snake Handler by India Ramey Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I swallow strychnine as the ground moves all around me
It slithers and writhes under my feet
Every step I take, I can feel them break my skin
Yet I tread unscathed on serpents and scorpions
[Chorus]
Call it arrogance
Call it ignorance
But I take them up and I show no weakness
Their venom cannot find its way through my veins
I take them up and I feel no pain
[Verse 2]
No devil or demon can withstand my righteous tongue
I cast them out one by one
The enemy has no power over me
Their mouths are filthy but the water washes me clean
[Chorus]
Call it arrogance
Call it ignorance
But I take them up and I show no weakness
Their venom cannot find its way through my veins
I take them up and I feel no pain
[Guitar breakdown]
[Bridge]
Time after time, again and again
Every single one gives me life
Or will the next one be my end
[Outro]
Call it arrogance
Call it ignorance
But I take them up and I show no weakness
Their venom cannot find its way through my veins
I take them up and I feel no pain
I swallow strychnine as the ground moves all around me
It slithers and writhes under my feet
Every step I take, I can feel them break my skin
Yet I tread unscathed on serpents and scorpions
[Chorus]
Call it arrogance
Call it ignorance
But I take them up and I show no weakness
Their venom cannot find its way through my veins
I take them up and I feel no pain
[Verse 2]
No devil or demon can withstand my righteous tongue
I cast them out one by one
The enemy has no power over me
Their mouths are filthy but the water washes me clean
[Chorus]
Call it arrogance
Call it ignorance
But I take them up and I show no weakness
Their venom cannot find its way through my veins
I take them up and I feel no pain
[Guitar breakdown]
[Bridge]
Time after time, again and again
Every single one gives me life
Or will the next one be my end
[Outro]
Call it arrogance
Call it ignorance
But I take them up and I show no weakness
Their venom cannot find its way through my veins
I take them up and I feel no pain
