Creep

'Cause I ain't no killer with the complexion of sinner

Tryna slide me my dinner, but you can't paint my face

You can't paint my face, no

Yeah, uh, look

Open up and swallow the pill

Fear-monger, sell it, sip it, slowly take it down with your meal

I watch it sway how you feel

The morning birds are singin' over the fields

But siren songs ain't got that kind of appeal

My soul is covered in steel

Touch the microphone and let it be peeled

They wear the culture like stones, but they ain't loving us still

Till it spill, a different shade of burgundy in the hills

And I feel the subtle chains of how you look at me still, uh

How do you respond to life when days keep you up at night?

They press confessions from you if you in the wrong place, day or night

Rollin' with my brothers, tryna step without a shuck or jive

And I've got nothing less than my best, as long as I'm alive

And I got plenty minutes to stay

Why? 'Cause I'm breathin' (Why? 'Cause I'm breathin')

So, mama, I'll be gone for the day

I'll be back in the evening (Back in the evening)

'Cause everybody got secrets, everybody mislead them

Only she can calm me down when the world feel like it worth leavin'

When my future doesn't seem like it glow

Like sundresses and rave necklaces, ignite when they fold

What am I really tryna hold?

They placin' wages on my soul

My dad, he told me, "Be a good man in the end and it will show"

Tryna stay afloat, standin' on my ten toes proud

Nobody get involved

I seen a couple snakes slow down, now the grass is low

Movin' slow, I'm standin' braced up

I can't announce my next move until it's done because they fakin', fake love

I'm face up, above water, take a dip and wake up

Wesley Joe still make you shiver in the zone

And I ain't no killer

'Cause I ain't no killer with the complexion of sinner

Tryna slide me my dinner, but you can't paint my face

You can't paint my face, no
