Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When You Hear All Of Your Dogs Start Barkin
You Better Go Take A Look I'm Probably In Your Back Yard
See If You don't Wanna Be A Witness In This
Then You Better Turn It Off Cause The Criminals' Here
You Can Look At My Subliminal Sayin
You Would See That There Is A Evil With In
A Eviler Grin And Ill Begin
I Contend To Be Greatest Of Ever Start
M-O-N-O-X-I-D-E
Ya'll Can Even See Me In 3-D
All Up In Ya Like A
Now Let Me See How Many People
Are Really Gunna Be Fucked Up
If He Really Comes To Get Me
I Got A Strain Spillin Deep Into My Mind
Of Somebody Try To Kill Me As I Reach In My Blind
I Call It Evil And Evil Is What It Is
And The Only Way For Me To Express It Is Like This

Evil Is What Evil Does And
There's Little Bit In All Of Us Can
(Anybody Hear It While Its Callin My Name
I Hear Em Bouncin Off The Walls Trying To Drive Me Insane)

Evil Is What Evil Does And
There's Little Bit In All Of Us Can
(Anybody Hear It While Its Callin My Name
I Hear Em Bouncin Off The Walls Trying To Drive Me Insane)

Some Where In There Where My Fantasy Forms
Evil Thoughts Cross My Mind Thought Out The Chorse
Of My Dreamlike Day And Made It My Daydream
Until I Feel Crazy Got A Lot Of Comments With Creeps
Plus My Lack Of Sleep And The Thoughts Of Slaughtered Sheep
Being Hurdled Over A Gate Each Counting At Me
Gurgling Blood until They Slap
As I Look At The Celing Somethings Callin Up My Back
Wispering Affirmation Of The Lightnin In One Ear
Scream Carnal Curses In The Other
So Its Kinda Hard To Hear
I'm Hold Together Over My Screaming Inside
So I Play The Comatoes Reacion And Pay It No Mind
Feel Fine Till Evil Reveals Itself Inside
At That Point It Must Be Exercised
Unless Ya Plan On Playin A Host
To A Unclean Spirit With No Place To Go
Its All Evil

Evil Is What Evil Does And
There's Little Bit In All Of Us Can
(Anybody Hear It While Its Callin My Name
I Hear Em Bouncin Off The Walls Trying To Drive Me Insane)

Evil Is What Evil Does And
There's Little Bit In All Of Us Can
(Anybody Hear It While Its Callin My Name
I Hear Em Bouncin Off The Walls Trying To Drive Me Insane

I Think Its Time For Ya'll To Stop Foolin Your Self
Released From The East So You Know I Need Help
Always Felt Like A Victim Of My Own Inner Mind
Only Thing I Have Left Is Nothing So I Guess I Was Blind
And I Never Really Had The Nerve To Keep Shit Cool
Stop Starin At Me Rude Unless You Makin A Move
I'm A Warrior who's Brain Is Tangled Mangled And Crushed
And I Been Ran Out Of Trust Shit
Brush A Hater Away Like A Dusty Sleeve
Death Givin Ass Kickin Puttin Souls At Ease
Will I Ever Be Normal I Doubt It
But Time Keeps Tickin Waitin On My Self
Because I Love Self Inflicted
Thoughts In My Brain Drivin Me Insane
So Its Hard For Me To Try And Maintain
I'm Always Trippin
So When You See Me don't Look At Close
Cause In Reality I'm Just A Ghost
Its All A Dream Dawg

Evil Is What Evil Does And
There's Little Bit In All Of Us Can
