Another opportunist for hire
The cat with nine lives
Constantly feeding on desire
Somehow this rat thrives
Cowards watch the slaughter
Picks the bones find a gem
Through shit infested water
Without getting any on them
Right place at the wrong time
That’s how they gather dirt
Quick to drop a fucking dime
Finding solace in creating hurt
Trying to fill their black heart
Life has left them all alone
Can’t stop once they start
Until the knife kisses bone
