Lyrics:
Leaving the light,
Always thought i was living a lie
Wasnt feeling it right
Always thought I was living a lie

Put my hand up on my heart, I beat my chest,
The chaos moving down and down, seep in my flesh
The obstacles wont block my path, i see the test,
They can try and swat me down, boy im the pest
Only know what you see from the outside,
You can run, God laughs with his mouth wide,
I won’t die on my knees, though my hands tied,
In the end it’s a Roach vs a landslide

Better run, there's a god
And he’s coming for me

Leaving the light,
Always thought i was living a lie
Wasn't’ feeling it right
Always thought I was living a lie

The pest is always on the move,
I aint vanish,
Crush me with your holy hell,
I feel no damage,
I can never stop my path,
Despite the panic,
The planet might be burning down,
Fuck it I'll manage,
Green hills I can see them smoking,
Big smile as the flames approaching,
Im a beast, I can feel them poaching
Stamp me down but a roach keeps roaching

Better run, there's a god
And hes coming for me

Leaving the light

I dont need a gun
I can hurt you with my tongue
And im trying not to burn out while I'm living in the sun
Leaving the light,
Always thought i was living a lie
Wasnt feeling it right
Always thought I was living a lie
