A Dream
The Creations Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wake up at the crack of dawn
In the sky
There it lies
A very
Meticulous Sun
Go to sleep
In too deep
My thoughts are clouded by fear
Of the moon
Red like blood
Life's a dud
Aye
When the blood moon is out
Everyone better hide
Only safe place is inside
Don't you get caught in the Tide
When the blood moon shines
Better watch for the signs
Better watch for that tide
Imma go Jekyll and Hyde
When the sky shines red
They gotta price for my head
I put a price on the name
They tryna steal all my fame
Acting like this is a game
Feel like I'm stuck in the flames
Feel like I'm trapped in these chains
Hell is the only place that will remain
I wake up at the crack of dawn
In the sky
There it lies
A very
Meticulous Sun
Go to sleep
In too deep
My thoughts are clouded by fear
Of the moon
Red like blood
Life's a dud
Aye
When the blood moon is out
Everyone better hide
Better hurry inside
Don't get caught in the Tide
Or get caught in the eye
Of the storm
Or the mouth of the beast
He been looking to feast
When the blood moon shines
Better watch for the signs
Better look for the clues
Live or die, you choose
Either way you lose
No matter what you do
Or what you use
They gon come for you
Gotta price on ya head
Gotta hit on ya name
They want the fame
This ain't a game
So what will you do when you're stuck inside the flames?
Locked in chains
Locked in cages
Hung by strings
Middle Ages
Dark times
That's a fact
Fucked up
Stay strapped
I wake up at the crack of dawn
In the sky
There it lies
A very
Meticulous Sun
Go to sleep
In too deep
My thoughts are clouded by fear
Of the moon
Blood Moon
Blood Moon
Blood Moon
Blood Moon
Blood Moon
Blood Moon
Blood Moon
Blood Moon
Blood Moon
