the widow's bane - ancestral ray كلمات الأغنية

sweet baby boy, rattlesnake in his hand
grinnin’ from the bottom of the cradle, i stand
like a proud father would, who slipped into fatherhood
like a trance
if a proud father could, he would give his boy
a fighting chance

i’m feelin’ scared, i can’t remember what for
i think there’s somethin’ dark movin’ under the floor
yeah, my boy’s outta snakes
and he’s hungry for more
but my bones were set broken at birth
so i can’t move to the door

i’m begging him
“please! son, behave!
i’m doin’ all i can to save
all our ancestors gave
and can’t you hear them callin’ you from the grave?
can’t you hear them callin’ you from the grave?
oh, can’t you hear them callin’ you from…”

tears are wellin’ up like the tar in his eyes
my blood is runnin’ thick as the fog outside
there’s a ghost in the corner
she’s tellin’ me to
“run and hide.”
and my boy’s eyes are red now
and he’s growin’ in size
i’m begging him
“please! son, behave!
i’m doin’ all i can to save
all our ancestors gave
and can’t you hear them callin’ you from the grave?
oh, can’t you hear them callin’ you from the grave?
well, can’t you hear them callin’ you from…”

(whispering)

i recall the crooked sound
of a music box by my bed
and the demons in my daddy’s eyes
that his crooked smile hid
i can see the snakes
moving underneath his skin
i guess i was faust, then
but now i’m him
but now i’m him

i wake to the whispers of my boy’s forked tongue
there’s a chill in the room makin’ the spiders run
there’s a pause like a silent sp_ce
after you c_ck a gun
and i’m thinkin’ to myself
“my god, what have i done?”
i’m askin’ him
“son, do ya think that you’re brave?
to cast out all that i gave?
well, you can’t k!ll the slaves, now
because we’ll be callin’ you from the grave
yeah, we’re your ancestral ray
yeah, we’re your ancestral ray.”
