The Prince Lyrics

I learned the rules on how to reign control the game

Keep your friends close but foes in equal flame

Manipulate dictate yeah it's all a dirty play

Power grabs stabs in backs it's the Machiavellian way

You gotta lie gotta cheat don't care who you beat

A ruthless king no strings force the kingdom to your feet

Deception in perception gotta earn your crown

Don't matter who you burn just take the whole town

Never mercy never trust always on a fucking grind

A tyrant or a savior? It's a thin-ass line

Bend the truth break the rules it's war never peace

Deliver that brutality make 'em beg for release

Power's just a game and it's kill or be killed

Everybody wants the throne it's where the blood is spilled

In this twisted fucking kingdom only snakes survive

Fight dirty fight mean to stay alive

Create illusions spread the fear be a master of disguise

Hide behind the mask pull strings tell them lies

Generosity's a weakness charity's a joke

In the shadows like a phantom watch them choke

Win the people's trust then you take their rights

Policy of treachery stay ruthless in the fights

Pretend to be the righteous but you're rotten to the core

Behind those grins and whispers it's a silent war

Yeah I feel it creeping

This hunger never sleeping

Played the game so fucking long

Now my conscience is seeping

Bury the guilt deep in the ground

Sacrifice is lost never found

I'm the serpent I'm the beast

In this game I'm crowned

Keep your weapons sharp keep your will unbreakable

To rule the masses become unfathomable

Puppeteer the mobs feed them what they want

Stay in control no matter how they taunt

When you rise expect the cuts bleeding through your skin

Scars from battles fought but that's what earns the win

From pawns to corrupt kings we manipulate the hell

Mastering this game inside a darkened shell

Power's just a game and it's kill or be killed

Everybody wants the throne it's where the blood is spilled

In this twisted fucking kingdom only snakes survive

Fight dirty fight mean to stay alive

So here I stand throne in hand with a wicked grin

Ruler of deceit I let the darkness in

Ashes to ashes from dusk till dawn

In the rage of power I stand still a spawn
