The Touch Of Death
Blaze Ya Dead Homie Lyrics

The touch of death is coming, there's nowhere to escape
Death is inevitable and unstoppable, there is no way to avoid it.

Your life is slowly fading into your hollow grave
As one approaches their inevitable death, their life slowly disappears and loses meaning.

You can not be saved
Once death has claimed a person, there is no possibility of escaping it.

There was once a man that couldn't die
Introduction to the concept of immortality and the man who embodies it.

In fact to this day that man is still alive
The man with immortality still exists and is present in the world today.

He lives in the cosmos on the edge of time
He resides beyond the temporal world, existing in a different realm beyond the concept of time.

But he walks among society carrying a sickle and a shotgun
Despite his immortality, the man with the touch of death walks among regular people, armed and dangerous.

With a touch of death, and death's hands
The man possesses the ability to control and bring about death, as if it were an extension of his own hands.

He's a young, dying, unstoppable, dead man, you'll know
Despite his immortality, the man appears to be constantly on the brink of death, but continues to live and function nevertheless.

When death is upon us, come with me right now, and don't be afraid
Blaze encourages listeners to accept their own mortality and not be afraid of death, as it is an inevitable part of life.

I've been alive for many centuries
Blaze speaks from the perspective of an immortal being who has lived for centuries.

Watched new kings replace old kings
The immortal Blaze has witnessed the rise and fall of empires and the replacement of rulers throughout history.

Seen empires overthrown with war, disease and sickness, for rich or poor
Blaze has seen how wars and diseases can bring down even the most powerful empires, affecting both the rich and poor equally.

Armies form and prepare to fight
Throughout history, Blaze has seen armies assemble and prepare to go to war.

Damn what a battle it lasted twenty nights
Blaze recalls a particularly intense battle that lasted for twenty nights.

I'm in the afterlife that's where I grew
Blaze implies that he himself is now in the afterlife, having grown and matured in it.

Watched a whole lot on a thang or two
Having lived for so long, Blaze has accumulated extensive knowledge and experiences.

Found out quick that the world was cold
Despite living for centuries, Blaze has still experienced the negative aspects of the world, and understands how dark and cold it can be.

But I really ain't go nowhere
Despite all of his experiences and travels, Blaze hasn't really gone anywhere or progressed beyond his immortal state.

I sit here surrounded in dark countin' dead
Blaze is consumed by darkness and isolation, with only the dead as his companions.

Looking for someone to give this pain too
Blaze is seeking someone to share in the immense pain he feels from living an immortal life.

Looking for someone to feel the way that I do, like me
Blaze longs for someone to understand and empathize with the unique experience of being immortal and unable to die.
