Your Nightmare

Anthony Cochran 1982 (Chicago)



I'm living in a world of Hell
A place where Satan himself wouldn't even dwell
Devouring everything in my path
Leaving nothing but destruction in the aftermath
There is this venom in my veins running it's course
Turning my heart cold giving off no remorse
The monster I've become is part of your creation
So for you there will be no salvation
I was blinded by your cowardly attack
Only feeling the blade penetrating my back
You are foolish for becoming a snitch
And you can believe payback is going to be a bitch
Cause like a switchblade knife
I'll be quick to take a life
Starting with your family first
Maybe their blood will quench my thirst
Regardless the outcome I'll be coming for you
And there is no telling what I will be capable to do
Maybe throw you to the floor holding you down with a knee
While your bitch ass screams I can't breath
Maybe pull out the Glock and point the barrel to your head
And right before your brain meets lead
I'll tell you to close your eyes and say a prayer
For I just became your very worst nightmare.
