[Intro]
I been hearin’ whispers in the pinewood dark
Where the cold don’t sleep and the dogs don’t bark
Folks go missin’ and they call it fate
But it’s me in the brush with a twelve-gauge hate
[Verse 1]
I twitch when the moon hit a certain hue
Got a meth cloud mind and a .22
Got a twitch in my hand when the wind blow south
And a stitched-up mask on a killshot mouth
This land don’t judge, it just swallows the wrong
Every grave I dig, I’m hummin’ a song
Let the twitch guide hands, let the twitch pull steel
When I feel that shake, somethin’ ‘bout to get real
I got b***d in my boots and a snarl in my chest
And a pinewood soul that won’t let me rest
I don’t need no reason, I just need that shake
When it come, I move, and I don’t hit brake
[chorus]
There’s a twitch in the pines that the law can’t stop
And a voice in the wind sayin’ “drop that cop”
I ain’t right in the head, I was born this way
With a twitch in my brain and a price to pay
[Verse 2]
Rope h**g low where the squirrels won’t climb
And the bugs don’t chirp when you step in my time
Every tree got eyes, every branch got weight
From the neck of a snitch who ain’t move too straight
I don’t talk to God, I talk to bark
And it talk right back ‘bout the ones in the dark
Sayin’ they creepin’ in, tryin’ to steal my stash
But the twitch got plans, and it move so fast
Tore up trails in a bullet-riddled Ford
With a glovebox Bible and a murderin’ sword
I done cooked in a shack where the paint don’t peel
Just smoke, and fire, and a rusty seal
[chorus]
There’s a twitch in the pines that the law can’t stop
And a voice in the wind sayin’ “drop that cop”
I ain’t right in the head, I was born this way
With a twitch in my brain and a price to pay
[Verse 3]
Twitch make me mean, twitch make me grin
Every time I see a badge, that tremble begin
It ain’t no illness, it’s a bloodline curse
Passed from the dirt, straight into a hearse
Backwoods stitched into every nerve
Ain’t a soul I meet that I don’t observe
Like, will he run? Will he snitch?
Or will I just snap and flip that switch?
No mask, just Burlap grittin’ teeth
Twitchin’ like a wire with a killer beneath
When I walk, the woods hold breath in fear
‘Cause the twitch mean death when I get too near
[chorus]
There’s a twitch in the pines that the law can’t stop
And a voice in the wind sayin’ “drop that cop”
I ain’t right in the head, I was born this way
With a twitch in my brain and a price to pay
[Outro]
So if you hear a twig snap deep in the night
And you feel a shake, but you don’t see light
It ain’t no deer, it ain’t no breeze
It’s Burlap twitchin’ in the killin’ trees
[Outro]
Got a twitch like thunder, can’t hold back
When the pines start hummin’, I’m on that track
From the creek to the hills, I’m the twitch they dread
And the last thing you hear is a whisper: “d**d.”
