Twitch in the pines

[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.”
