[Verse 1]
Somebody said that it's the pressure always gets you
It'll burn right into your souls
Slip your sneakers as you creep around the sleepers
Got a long night of movin' on
So little sister, don't you be your brother's keeper
Got a mind to travel alone
You can get it ready, they can try to hold it steady
It'll unravel on its own
Let me tell you that
[Chorus]
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
[Verse 2]
Gonna brawler someone's lovin' you
There's the things that we want and the stupid shit we do
Never meant to hurt him, but you had to play dead
'Til you made it cross the border line
Bumpin' on your head, now you got it on your neck
And it's not a pretty way to die, let me tell you that
[Pre-Chorus]
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
[Chorus]
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
[Refrain]
I'm in the rain, your open mouth
The pocket change, you're goin' down
You're here to lick across his hand
[?], you're spillin' out
I'm in the rain, your open mouth
Taste like the rain, you're going down
I'm in the rain, your open mouth
You're not alive, ooh-ooh-ooh
(I'm in the rain, your open mouth)
(Taste like the rain, you're going down)
(I'm in the rain, your open mouth)
(Taste like the rain, you're going down)
[Verse 3]
Gonna brawler someone's lovin' you
There's the things that we want
And the stupid shit we do
Never meant to hurt him, but you had to play dead
'Til you made it cross the border line
Bumpin' on your head, now you got it on your neck
And it's not a pretty way to die, let me tell you that
[Chorus]
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
I, I know you're headed for the reaper
You, ooh, say you feel alright
