Lyrics Monster, Pt. 1 - Prince Predator feat. Jordan Bloom

I've been in this pain for years... it made me an animal
It tore away my spirit. Enslaved me without a hope
It made me mechanical, the change it was gradual
Understand I can't handle the damage I don't know how to cope

Down the slope I'm slipping I'm tumbling fast, wow
The fact I'm still among the living, don't even ask how
The pressure's on now I'm feeling the pascals
No time left for dawdling, I'm ready to act now

You gotta do it now or else you'll never get it started
I tear away my mask so I can light up the darkness
But the words fall on deaf ears, impossible to hearken
Cold hearts long departed in stark contrast to the Martian

Now the disease has infected me, the apathy contagious as my
Rage seems to subside and dissipate in stages
Now I'm left with blank pages not quite sure how to fill them out
My temperature, can't gauge it, my mood
It's just the strangest feeling

To be spinning in circles wondering who I'm supposed to be when
Most of me's so deeply buried, can't see through my own deceit
No receipts or remnants in my brain to let me know it's me
Woe is me it's no use 'cause it's over I can't control the beast

Molded by the darkness, you adopted the moonlight
Forever trying to reconcile my bad and my good side
But they don't separate 'cause actually they coincide
Jekyll jekyll hyde jekyll hyde hyde jekyll hyde

Jekyll-Hyde, different sides, neither one can coincide
Mental pain can leave a nigga broken if he can't decide
Devil tellin' lies on my shoulder, getting older make you
Feel like screwin' over everybody is what's truly live

Hopeless if that devil catch me slippin' see it in my eyes
Easily manipulated, that can't be overstated
I could try, fronting but it's pointless I ain't one for fakin'
I see my demise super vivid yell a livid cry

Angel on the left shoulder tryna help me stay alive
But societal pressures make me swat him like he was a fly
Angel try to pry, look inside, see the issues from they
Roots, bring 'em out to the surface and make a different guy

I don't see the purpose when I'm blinded by the devil
Plus they told me that me working to be better prolly corny
All that positivity, leave yo probability of being
Someone that they idolize low, stay boring and

Predictable, make the same mistakes you made at 17
Wanna see you bleed on the pavement, wanna see your dreams
Shot down, body bagged, toe tagged, white flagged
Locked down never to return leave you down bad

Leave you with a skepticism aimed at aimed at yourself
And nothing else, it consumes you and leave you stuck in this hell
Turn a truthful mother fucker to someone who only tell lies
Meant to break the spirit of everyone else who hasn't fell

It's a domino effect
