Prometheus Lyrics

[Verse 1: Cas One]
They want fire? Well let em burn
Ashes in my urn, past the passion of my work
Like the passage of my journey made me a new Earth
Fill it all to fill my cup and I won't ever give it up
A man of wounds and cuts, reshaped, and made new
And I paid dues with worn shoes walking on the lava
Like no longer am I ever on or past the pity parties
Fire in my arteries, make the world a part of me
Vice versa, line the words that take the curtain off the person
Feeling certain they determine won't burn up
Oh, ain't no quitter in my go-getter
Switch-hitter, bitter pill swallowed, I know, I know
I won't ever go home
Made my suit of armor out the road
Now I feel there ain't nowhere else to go
All the pieces of my soul got a reason that they glow
I'm a phoenix in the snow, these chains will never hold

[Hook: Bodi & Cas One]
Take the dark out the light
Bring a fire to the night
Let the demons dance, I’m never giving up the fight
If it’s wrong make it right
Til I’m gone I’ll ignite
An inferno in my eyes and it’s never gonna die

[Bridge: Bodi]
If I can’t make it out alive
Then I will leave it all behind

And hold my head and chin up high
Until the day I waive goodbye
And fade into the other side
And find a final piece of mind
My fears will never be my guide
And I will never hide

[Verse 3: Bodi]
So let’s strip away the bones and the skin
And the old jaded grin
And the grim simple truth that I won’t begin again

And win or lose don’t matter none, when it’s all said and done
The breath in the lungs, and steps that I’ve run
Go up and away, and set with the sun

I’m left with the one thing left to decide
What type of man I’ve become and soul that I was
Can hold to a grudge or shoulder and trudge
A molder of boulder til run out of blood

But I ain't waiting for the perfect shot
Draw, fire, aim, til the fucking wheels fall off

[Verse 4: Cas One]
And the deal's all off, kid, built the house alone
Cross my motherfucking bones on that long walk home
No thrones, no hopes, no idea where the story goes
Skeletons on my road journey got some soul
Behold that pale horse that burns the house down
The ghost of my former self now, kneel down
For the world now, like the motherfucking crowns
Got pushed down the queen's mouth, bleed on out
[Hook]
