Blood in My Eyes
Dimestore Hoods Lyrics

Ooh, what cha gonna do now?
Wondering what will be your next move?

(blood in my eyes...)
Feeling blinded by anger and revenge.

What cha gonna do,
What actions will you take?

When the rhythm comes kickin' you,
When you face the consequences of your actions.

Kinda makin' me bleed ear two,
Causing me physical and emotional pain.

Mommy said so, deafenin', happenin'
Childhood influences and environment that led to this anger.

Breathe like a disease,
Feeling like your presence is suffocating.

Gonna get you, off of me,
Desire and determination to get revenge and move on.

Thoughts of you rotting me,
Negative thoughts and memories that are affecting my wellbeing.

Animosity, burrows into me,
Hatred and anger deeply ingrained in me.

Boy you lost, when you made me the enemy!
You have already lost by making me your enemy.

Blood in my eyes,
I see red with anger and hatred.

I don't like to think...
Avoiding thoughts about you.

I don't like to think about you, NO!
Strong aversion towards you.

Who ya gonna do it to,
Who will be the next target of your actions?

Cause it's makin' me feel
It's causing me to feel...

(yea it's makin' me feel)
...intense anger and hatred.

My will, something I kill not,
My determination and strength are not to be underestimated.

Give enough to think about you,
You occupy my thoughts too much.

To another like me, punk!
Challenging other people with similar experiences and emotions to stand up for themselves.

You're gonna get yourself knocked out,
Your actions will have consequences for you.

Nightmares running through my mind,
The trauma you've caused is haunting me.

Watch your back, they want my brain,
Others are also seeking revenge against you.

Never left me quite the same,
The impact of your actions has changed me forever.

All the memories of my pain,
I can't forget the suffering you've caused me.

Put me down, and sorry me...
You've made me feel worthless and regretful.

So empty...
Feeling hollow and numb.

Hey you the kid in my face,
Directly addressing the person responsible.

Care to see my crib,
Inviting you to see the results of your actions.

Yea! Cause I'm just about to kick it,
I'm about to take action against you.

My innocents feeding your every-years,
Your actions have destroyed my innocence and shaped who I am.

I guess you gave no thought,
You didn't consider the consequences of your actions on me.

To your madness,
Your irrational behavior and actions.

Who you tryin' to fool now,
Your facade is not fooling anyone.

Thinking the insanity you knew now,
Your own craziness is catching up with you.

Waiting for a minute,
Taking a moment to plan and prepare for revenge.

Then I'm makin' you the enemy!
You've made me your enemy, and now I'm doing the same to you.

Rage, in my veins,
Burning anger inside me.

I cannot be made,
I cannot be broken down or defeated.

Thinking how you let me down,
Reliving disappointment and betrayal caused by you.

(how you let me...)
How I was counting on you and you failed me.

Fall, in my pain,
Sinking deeper into my own suffering.

Why don't you just let me drown,
Wishing for the pain to end and for you to stop hurting me.

Ooh, like I never knew,
Surprised by the level of betrayal and deception.

Distrust I grew everytime I think of you,
Losing trust every time I remember what you've done to me.

Rape my mind, to make me blind,
Mental manipulation and control.

Thought I would forget, oh boy,
Hoping I would just move on from the trauma and pain.

I'll hit you with the blindside,
Taking you by surprise with revenge.

No stoppin' it, watch me droppin' it,
Can't stop me now, I'll take you down.

Off of me, another nightmare rockin' it,
Getting rid of you and the memories associated with you.

Boy you lost, now I made you the enemy!
You've lost, now I'm in control and you're on the receiving end of my revenge.

[chorus]
Repeating the overall message of the song.
