In the night
A vile creature plagues your streets
Looking to feed and eat
They come weaponized
To no surprise
They come to only cause destruction
It comes up to the door
And breaks in unannounced
While you fell sleep on the couch
Didn't even notice he was in your home
All up in your business, your shit
Just free to roam
He watches you will you sleep
Your family too
He's come to collect
A debt
You gently realize before your eyes
That vile creature coming for your demise
You scream
"I don't have it yet!"
It holds out it's hand and just says
"Debt"
Bet
You go to your little box and pull out all you have
"This is all I have left!"
Debt
"How will I live off nothing?"
Debt
You hand him everything
As it burns it in your face
"I needed that!"
You cry out as it disappears
And you just sit and cry, sit and cry, for folks seems to come every day and every night
That vile creature jumps from home to home, house to house, just collecting debt
(That vile creature, just collecting debt)
(Evil coming all up in the night, seeking to take your life
You better not run, better not hide because its coming out tonight)
(Evil coming all up in the night, seeking to take your life
You better not run, better not hide because its coming out tonight)
"That vile creature. What is it? Who is it? Is it you? Is it me?
What you sow, you shall reap. Will you reap goodness, or will you reap evil?"
