[Intro]
āHe walks with no shadow.
He donāt knock.
He takes whatās owed.
This is his word. This is his law.
And weā
We are the pigs he feeds.ā
[Verse 1]
Found the book in a cinderblock shithole,
Pages soaked in moonshine and bullet holes.
Every word screamed b***d and flame,
Said Burlapās realāaināt just a name.
Preacher man twitchinā, covered in sores,
Preachinā through meth shakes, screaminā from pores.
āFeed the hogs! Burn the fakes!ā
Drank gas, lit match, never breaks.
He carved the symbol in his own chest,
Then told the camera, āThis is a test.ā
Trailer burned down with him inside,
But his voice still plays at night.
[chorus]
These are the cinderblock sermons,
From the meth-mouth prophets of pain.
They donāt sleep, they donāt breathe,
They just wait in the propane rain.
If you hear the callādonāt answer.
If you see the sackādonāt run.
He donāt k**l ācause heās angry.
He kills ācause itās fun.
[Verse 2]
Trailer #3 got salt on the steps,
They know the sack man donāt respect breath.
Old lady sittinā with a cross on her knee,
Said, āHe took my boy when he lied to me.ā
She heard the dogs go quiet at four,
Then found skin nailed to the screen door.
No prints, no b***d, no trailā
Just a smell like burnt teeth and mail.
Now she prays to a gas can altar,
Says, āHeās God nowāaināt no one darker.ā
[Bridge]
Burlap donāt talk.
Burlap donāt sleep.
He just watches, waits, and eats.
Rope for a spine. Knives in his breath.
Come to him cryināāheāll show you death.
[chorus]
These are the cinderblock sermons,
From the meth-mouth prophets of pain.
They donāt sleep, they donāt breathe,
They just wait in the propane rain.
If you hear the callādonāt answer.
If you see the sackādonāt run.
He donāt k**l ācause heās angry.
He kills ācause itās fun.
[Outro]
āThis aināt no warning.
This aināt no dream.
This is Burlapās gospelā
Written in screams.ā
