[Intro: Tech N9ne]
Man lives in a sunlit world of what he believes to be reality
But there is unseen by most an underworld that is just as real
But not as brightly lit... a dark side

[Chorus: Tech N9ne]
(Darkness) I can write a verse and take the sun away
(Darkness) Say goodbye to light because it's gone today
(Darkness) Ain't no smiling, happiness is done away
(Darkness) Watch me paint a pic that'll make you run away

[Verse 1: Tech N9ne]
I don't really give a fuck of what you think of me, I had it up to here, yep
Follow me into another dimension of insanity's right here, step
I know you're feelin' I'm lovin' you
When I'm kissin' and fuckin' you, in a minute I'ma veer, left
And by the pluck of the jugular see the blood of my lover
And then I finish when you're near death
I'm sorry, but I mean it
'Cause when I got to chewing on bitches I got bulimic
Up in her like a gynecologist, with a penis
And when they bled on me I was giddy and never squeamish
That is a demon I cannot get rid of, I really rely
On the feeling of the sex and the red of a woman
Can I take a bite of your cerebellum?
I think it'll really get me up if I could be sucking your serotonin
I'd rather just die than inflict any pain on somebody who truly put trust in me
Better yet I just make others suffer who taught me and mocked me and fucked with me
Maybe get up in the club and shoot it up and make 'em panic at the disco
Kcuf uoy, fi slived era, tahw uoy pihsrow
I can paint a dark picture
You don't want me to start with ya
Go in and comin' out with the heart, hit ya
Chew you up and if you really tart, spit ya
After the brain, I put the lemon moraine in
Blood of a dame, is what I drain my fangs in
Takin' the spirit and then the body it came in
Away from the sun and forever you can remain in
[Chorus: Tech N9ne]
(Darkness) I can write a verse and take the sun away
(Darkness) Say goodbye to light because it's gone today
(Darkness) Ain't no smiling, happiness is done away
(Darkness) Watch me paint a pic that'll make you run away
(Darkness) I can write a verse and take the sun away
(Darkness) Say goodbye to light because it's gone today
(Darkness) Ain't no smiling, happiness is done away
(Darkness) Watch me paint a pic that'll make you run away

[Verse 2: The Dirtball]
When I'm all up on a pallet of pain
With blood on my name, there ain't no sun up in it
I'm gonna break it down the walls
That try to stop me from poppin' my gun up in it
Skits onto me honor me for the time
That I gave into the rhyme in another mind lookin' like a nice guy
Behind the face be the beast of another motherfucker who be heard the least
So many hear me when I say that
I remember everybody that led me astray, yo fuck 'em
Nobody but my closest know about my darkness and when they fall away, yo buck 'em
I'm so sick that I never checked outta my mental-ward working in Sweden
Burning the bodies, this song made my memory feed them
Ghost in me loud and I'm proud I can see them
I don't even wanna talk about it
But I do it for the demons and the devils alive
Hopin' that the nonbelievers get a number two in the eye please try to die save me the time
Nobody better move when I'm comin' through I'ma stay devoted to rhyme
Next line devoted to mine hex sign with the wicked I'ma be forever de-dine
Picture this my wrist slit pissed off I'm hangin' by a meat hook
Yo I'm bangin' on a mean hook it's the twist
This chapter missed, the darker the better my main cook book
I'm tellin' everybody that I'm not doin' so well
Up in my noggin so you better watch your step
Sub-noise when I'm bangin' on a Tech set
Best believe the dark times are here my lips eclipse everything
[Chorus: Tech N9ne]
(Darkness) I can write a verse and take the sun away
(Darkness) Say goodbye to light because it's gone today
(Darkness) Ain't no smiling, happiness is done away
(Darkness) Watch me paint a pic that'll make you run away
(Darkness) I can write a verse and take the sun away
(Darkness) Say goodbye to light because it's gone today
(Darkness) Ain't no smiling, happiness is done away
(Darkness) Watch me paint a pic that'll make you run away

[Bridge: Tech N9ne]
I'm your worst fear, I'm your favorite
I'm your acquired taste, will you savor it?
If it's blood thirst, will you run from it?
No need 'cause I'm inside of you, when the sun is lit
You cannot escape me, I'm your last resort
When you have an eager, you cannot report
I am the void of sunshine, malicious, vain and heartless
If ever you need an alibi, rely on me, I am

[Chorus: Tech N9ne]
(Darkness) I can write a verse and take the sun away
(Darkness) Say goodbye to light because it's gone today
(Darkness) Ain't no smiling, happiness is done away
(Darkness) Watch me paint a pic that'll make you run away
