Lyrics
STYLE & MOOD: Dark horrorcore rap-rock. Emotional arc moves between rage and sorrow, neither fully winning. Raw, heavy, and real. Influenced by ICP energy but written in a mother's voice.
TEMPO: 120 BPM][KEY: E minor][INSTRUMENTATION: Distorted heavy guitar riffs, thick driving bass, punchy aggressive drums. Sparse dark synth undertones beneath the heaviness.][Bridge strips to minimal just bass drone and distant guitar, nearly silent underneath the sorrow.][Guitars should be powerful but controlled. Leave space for vocals. Do not allow guitar to overpower the vocal delivery.][LYRICAL DIRECTION: Lyrics move between rage and sorrow, neither fully winning. Verses carry indictment and fury.][Bridge is intimate and grief stricken, a mother's raw sorrow beneath the anger. Outro surges with dark carnival justice then softens into loss. Every word should feel lived in and true, never theatrical.] [VOCALS: Male. Aggressive rap/half-shouted delivery in verses and chorus. Raw, gritty, and fierce. At times there is sorrow in the voice beneath the rage. Bridge shifts completely to low intimate male voice, almost spoken, emotionally naked. Fury returns for final chorus.][Vocals sit above the instrumentation] [EMOTIONAL ARC: Rage and grief trading places. Indictment building toward the bridge. Bridge breaks open into pure sorrow. Final chorus returns heavier and more final than before. Outro surges with dark carnival energy then softens into loss. Fade to silence.
Intro: [heavy distorted guitar riff, bass and drums building, no vocals, dark and ominous]
Verse 1: [aggressive rap/half-shouted, rage leading, minimal dynamics]
You called yourself a friend, you wore his trust like skin
He helped you when you needed, you paid him back like a djinn
His hand reached out in friendship, yours dealt poison back
A knife dressed up as loyalty, a smile painted black
He never saw the darkness hiding in your eyes
Too busy being good to recognize your lies
Chorus: [full band, heavy and driving, fierce and accusatory]
Dealer of death, you sell poison in the dark
Poison cursed by shadows, stealing all the light
You stole what can't be given back, no reprieve
Dealer of death, you're the reason I have no sun
Verse 2:[ same energy as verse 1, sorrow bleeding through the rage]
ou knew his laughter shook the walls and covered the world in light
You knew his kindness burned like stars at night
He'd give his last to someone who had nothing left
You dishonored his kindness by stealing his final breath
Now I hear silence where his voice once lived
Rage is all I have left, rage is what I'll give
Chorus: [repeat, slightly heavier texture]
Dealer of death, you sell poison in the dark
Poison cursed by shadows, stealing all the light
You stole what can't be given back, no reprieve
Dealer of death, you're the reason I have no sun
Justice Section: aggressive, dark carnival energy, almost triumphant but cold
Yeah, justice came and found you in the dark
Drowned in your own poison, stopped your blackened heart
The carnival came calling, took you for your sins
Death Dealer met the reaper, now the silence wins
You'll never pull another soul down into night
Drowned in what you sold them, gone without a fight
Bridge: instrumentation strips back, male voice low and intimate, emotionally naked, sorrowful]
I miss your laugh that shook the room and lit the darkest corners
I miss your smile that gave me hope in dark times
I miss your energy, the way you helped us out
The way you loved your brother with such tender care
I miss our silly conversations, just you and me
Eating at the Jamaican restaurant, just you and me
Love in the ordinary moments
I'd sell my soul to hear your laugh again
To hug you again
Just to talk again
Final Chorus: [heaviest texture, full emotional weight, rage and sorrow together]
Dealer of death, you sell poison in the dark
Poison cursed by shadows, stealing all the light
You stole what can't be given back, no reprieve
Dealer of death, you're the reason I have no sun
Outro: dark carnival surge, then instrumentation softens and fades to silence]
The carnival has spoken, and it has rules
The wheel has turned its last
The death dealer met his own fate
Swallowed by his own demons
Justice wore no blindfold when it came to call
Demon carrying a poison smile to watch the death dealer fall
Here I stand beneath a darkened sky
Still hearing silence scream
We never got to say goodbye
music softens
I'll carry you in ordinary moments
In every laugh that shakes a room
In every corner lit by someone's kindness
I'll find you
fade to silence
