(Intro)
What up? Glad you could make it
It wouldn't be a fucking party without you. Yo....
(Verse 1)
Don't believe everything you read, it's even worse
And about to re-emerge out from underneath the dirt
Is a sketchy-ass crew full of wild card types
That like to party all day and riot all night
Take a look behind the front cause your back's a target
Every way out's a way in, you're trapped regardless
Every back-up scheme that you hatched was garbage
It's the real deal, they ain't just acting heartless
Might as well pass a 40 around so we can pour it out
You're walking in a lion's den smelling like a porterhouse
Too close to feeding time to walk away safe
Been here back in the day but this is not the same place
So typical, tripping when the stakes are high as ever
Falling flat upon your faces with your laces tied together
And in a cruel twist straight out of a horror movie
Who could that be controlling the pack but yours truly?
(Chorus)
Come on down, welcome to the riot house
It's a good time, don't knock it till you try it out
Never is a moment lost, no matter what
Said never is a moment lost, no matter what
And if anybody asks where you were tonight
Keep it tight and don't say a word, check you later
Never is a moment lost, bring it in now
Welcome to the riot house, and bring it on
(Verse 2)
No dice, don't even try to make the riot settle
That's only gonna push it to an even higher level
The only time they're ever playing is for keeps
Till you're laying in the streets bloodied, praying for release
And if anybody's feeling more special than Ed
We'll bring you back down, filling your zeppelin with lead
Thought it was all about you, better be checking your head
We're giving nothing up, not even respect for the dead
Watch it - this is no kind of place for a good shepherd
It's a backdrop for cast-offs and hood lepers
A quiet corner in the dark, good for decomposing
Where demons reach out and touch you in your weakest moments
Evil omens try to warn you to stay away
Don't be a hero, vigilantes couldn't save the day
You want to drop by, careful what you wish for
You'll be headed home as a devil short of a pitchfork
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
I been up, been down, been around, all over the town, all over the place
And I can see for a fact, there's no coming back
You're never gonna walk away
(Verse 3)
You never saw souls so severed and torn
It's crazy heavy and you ain't ready to weather the storm
Lost causes, their stories are done, if yours has only begun
Then break away before the warriors come
Too late, no escaping the fate that awaits you
As you knock on wood and wait for a breakthrough
Bodies bouncing off the walls, there's no limit
Can't get away, guess I got to roll with it
(Chorus)
(Bridge - x2)
(Outro)
