Eric Dutton - Cold Snap

Cold weather can't put out the fire inside
The same way I'm alive after trying to die
It'll happen when it happens, I guess
I was quizzical, now I be passing the test
I'm invincible, how do I answer this best
Oh yeah, I'm down to just cancel the debt
Cancel the stress, demanding respect
Uh huh, stay classy, got your hand in your vest
Got your pinky out when you spillin' tea
There's no secrets here, there is no mystery
The past, our history's too heavy to take
Guess I'll work it out, now I've developed a taste
For eating beats, blood stained, remember this face
Ice cold, that's December in fate
Double negative when you pretend to be fake
And that's real, low like minimum wage
Getting stiffer with age, hate when I bend and I break
When the rain comes pouring down
And the flood is all around us
We tried to make it out alive
And now we see the light
At the edge of the night
Maybe we just ran outta time
And the shimmer that's in your eyes
Sends shivers down my spine
Black hoodie, black sweats,
Hood up, head down, pocketed hands, yep
I apologize like rocketing man up
To set foot on the moon but caught with his damn
Pants down, that's how we can't sweat it fa'sho
And wow - look at that, I'm finally lettin' it go
And my face, I know, man, it never would show
That when push comes to shove it's so pathetic I froze
Heaven can go shove it, hell can get up too
I'm livin' a nightmare here on earth but when the reaper wants you
He makes hell come to you and makes heaven retreat
"You're welcome" he taunts, you say you're never gettin' me
And now my back is to the wall again, do or die time
No suicide lines, just a sprint to the finish
Cause I be itching to win it
And when this winter is ended
I'ma get rid of this penance
And let this truer light shine
When the rain comes pouring down
And the flood is all around us
We tried to make it out alive
And now we see the light
At the edge of the night
Maybe we just ran outta time
And the shimmer that's in your eyes
Sends shivers down my spine
