○Not For Pride○

Killer In My Veins

I was raised by killer's

Raised in the cold where the light never stayed

I was raised to be a certain way

Shaped by shadows that never let go

I was raised to look you in the eyes

Even when the world around me froze

When I take you're life away

It’s not rage — it’s the echo of the place I came from

Covered by shadows when the light starts to fade

And the darkness settles into my skin

Like it’s always known my name

Think twice

when you pick you're battles

Think twice

when you cross the likes of me

I'm still here still alive because killer's raised me

And the cold they left in me never melts

I was raised by killer's

Killer's raised me with a knife by my side

Not for glory — but survival

I was raised by killer's

They taught me all the games you play

And how the world turns quiet

when the last bit of light slips away

Covered by darkness

Covered by shade

Covered flesh and a bloody blade

I can't help the way I was raised

Raised in a certain kind of way

Where the night speaks louder than the day

I carry the blade

Not for pride — but because it’s all I’ve ever known

I carry the blade

The blade

The last warm thing in a world gone cold
