Dark Lotus - The Drought lyrics
rate me(Verse)
Look to the sky, ask, why the sun is gone?
Why we grow strong? Why you steady wilted on?
Where's all the dust from, is it where the demon's long?
Is this the hell, the bible wants will come?
The end for some, the Lotus never pass or fade
Grow in shade or light, climate's always right
Never ever is an end in sight, I know your thirsty
Droughts done, you're dirty
Corroded you eternally and with the dust you blow away
(Verse 2)
No sun needed, no water needed, repeat it: no water needed
The sea deeded moonlight just to feed it
It blooms, blossoms and flourishes, possible to encourage?
Depressed, and discouraged, under moon rays they the purest
In a drought, I'm all about keepin' the consistent love flowing
Mix it with the ultra violet rays, these pots, they keep growin'
I don't need a moment, these crosses on our face repel opponents
And reflect like a mirror, showin' true power
Now don't it?
(Hook x2)
(We don't wanna, We don't wanna) Bring the drought
(We don't wanna, We don't wanna) Let them down
Lotus moves me, moonlight shines through
(Verse 3)
Oh, amen, the sun's comin' up
Which means the game's over, sayonara, out of luck
Fuck, my skin's dryin' up and starts to crack
Ribs stickin' out my skin, bones pokin' out my back
I'm steady losin' my vision, cause my eyes is sinkin'
Teeth fallin' out one by one, body rotten, stinkin'
Bones poppin' out they sockets, as I crawl to my tomb
The daylight's killin me', rejuvenate with the next moon
(Verse 4)
The sun beats on us for months
The once nourishing stem's are withered down in the stumps
Leaves crack, like a vampire's pale flesh
Tell me why the fuck are the Gods being so selfish?
Time moves slower than a slug across a hot rock
You hear the tick, but an hour passed before the tock
In this drought, all my seeds can do is pout
Thank God it don't take rain, for a real lotus to sprout
(Hook x2)
(We don't wanna, We don't wanna) Bring the drought
(We don't wanna, We don't wanna) Let them down
Lotus moves me, moonlight shines through
(Verse 5)
I feel so dry today, it's a one to cry for me(?)
Feelin' like I might die, put a deal up high(?)
Let the black rain all come falling down on me
My garden's filled with souls, some heartless, some emotional
But I hope you know that I get to grow
In front of moonlight, other individuals
Fuck residuals, I don't need a God damn penny if my life ain't felt
Just too many that could use my help
That's all that matters, nothing else
Not the stores, not the shelves
Not the women, not the wealth
Can't ever change the drought I'm dealt
So sometimes, I cry for myself
(Hook x2)
(We don't wanna, We don't wanna) Bring the drought
(We don't wanna, We don't wanna) Let them down
Lotus moves me, moonlight shines through
