Shadows

Lyrics

[Verse 1: int eighty] Let's start it off, no need to validate Who shot first, the cycle retaliates Mood got worse, plotting and scheming An informal war that's so below freezing Ruthless, utmost treachery, defeat Nuisance, cutthroat, enemy, deceit Maybe you'd tell me: Who'd want to challenge this? Just two characters, no protagonist Espionage, emergency sirens Strike from behind a curtain of iron New opportunities to prove our immunity Sit so well with the Intel Community Tit for tat all across the board White moves, black moves, back and forth Traps so clever, my oh my Seeking revenge, why ask why, Spy vs Spy [Verse 2: int eighty] Got a bomb in the dresser, hole in the floor A bucket of acid perched above the door (heads up!) Unscrew lightbulbs, prepare for a flash Strike a match in a room full of natural gas Defuse the C-4, reroute the wires Dropped the extinguisher, still caught fire Drained all the water, pipes full of Clorox Plus a live wire hooked up to the doorknob Flip that switch, here comes the truth Man you better not even step in that booth Biological, these guys are survivors Unleash an aerosol of hand sanitizer (fresh!) Tracking the newest stats, laughing when you react Move them back, crash and collapse in a booby trap (heh heh booby) Just know it's coming, venture a guess Plenty possibilities no telling what's next, Spy vs Spy [Verse 3: int eighty] The actuator's sensor is ready to fire The sensor's connected to a segment of wire The wire's attached to the clock That's attached to the key, every tick it turns to unlock Every tock sends current to help the blast resonate Open the package, whole thing detonates Lots of contraptions, put them on ice (I get it) With the price of a Rube Goldberg device A few keepsakes that I need to keep safe Goal of the mission: Transport the briefcase I spy the other guy try to dismantle Plan to get cancelled, handcuff the handle Classified info, secret documents High profiles on targeted monuments Negative, positive, the yin and the yang Trust we get it started with the biggest of bangs, Spy vs Spy
