Lyrics:[]

[Verse 1]

—grace

Living in my room, and looking out through my door

Is there a reason to be or else think like me?

And hear the people around were not known to be bound

Being embraced out of President's grace, then they come and batter you


[Pre-Chorus]

All around me, people, well are they killed?

Hold me 'round the throat, well are they killed?

All around me, people, are they killed?

Killed? Killed? Killed? Killed?


[Chorus]

You flake! You flake! You're gonna fuckin' flake!

You flake! You flake! You're gonna fuckin' flake!

You flake! You flake! You're gonna fuckin' flake!

You flake!

[Verse 2]

The ghost with a heart of darkness

Pierces the hardened soul

Kneel to the killing by me

Bow down to the governor of all

Listening to freedom, do another disgrace

When they hear that the president beats me

Listening to freedom, do another disgrace

Listening to freedom, do another disgrace

When I hear that the president beats me

When I hear that the president beats me [Pre-Chorus]

[Pre-Chorus]

All around me, people, well are they killed?

Hold me 'round the throat, well are they killed?

All around me, people, are they killed?

Killed? Killed? Killed? Killed?


[Chorus]

You flake! You flake! You're gonna fuckin' flake!

You flake! You flake!You're gonna fuckin' flake!

You flake! You flake! You're gonna fuckin' flake!

You flake!


[Bridge]

I hear my betrayal and I now feel I can't see you in here

I fear my friend and I now feel I can't see you inside here [Outro] [Outro]

[Outro]

You flake! You flake! You're gonna fuckin' flake!

You flake! You flake! You're gonna fuckin' flake!

You'll die! You're die! You'll die! You're die!

You'll die! You're die! You'll die! You flake!
