Your Time to Die
Born into Revolution, an industrial one
But I would not call me lucky
Coming up from the slums
Nobody's wondering why I hardly trust anyone
Cause if you're free from corruption
Then you must be a nun
You've got an army of thugs?
Then let me bloody'em up
Don't lay a hand on my coat
Unless you wanna be cut
I'll pummel you with brass knuckles
Leave you ugly as fuck
Then wipe the blood off my gauntlet
And act like nothing is up!
Because I'm keeping up appearances
Within my Syndicate
If you're pollutin' my community
I'm catchin' wind of it! I'm making history
With every single day I'm living it!
I'll leave a bigger footprint than
Frickin' Charles Dickens did
Cause my name is as famous
As David Copperfield is
Child labor's popular
My god that's awful for kids
I'm trying to stop these Hard Times
From getting harder than this
And I still got Great Expectations
Now that's an Oliver Twist HA!
Keep your children outta factories
You can haul your own coal
Sew your own tapestries
If you're living lavishly
That'll end in tragedy
I'll knock you off your balcony
And leave the rest to gravity
Here's my manifesto
It's practically a rhapsody
Who'da knew beneath this classy jacket
I'd be packing heat?
I'm a fashion masterpiece
Sent by the Assassin's Creed
If you're an aristocrat
Now's the time to flatter me
That dude is fly, with that suit and tie
He don't mess around
She's by his side, nowhere to hide
When they come to town
Cause there's Assassin their veins
Every Templar will be slain
A time to live, time to fight
Now, it's your time to die
Leave it to me and Evie
To keep these streets clean
Ha ha! That ain't gonna be easy, No, UH!
The name's Jacob Frye
If you can't wait to die
Inside my cane I hide a blade
With which I take your life
I'm taking over Devil's Acre with
This gang of mine drinking bitter
We prefer it to the taste of wine
When we got a problem, we assassinate the guy
Pick your pocket, take you hostage
Any way to make it by
Take your eyes off my sister, man
She ain't your wife
But she may slice you wide
Open with a table knife call us crooks
Soon enough we'll make you change your mind
Join the Rooks if you love it
When the stakes are high
I've climbed higher steeples
I've scaled bigger Bens
Don't believe me? Take a swim
In the River Thames
That dude is fly, with that suit and tie
He don't mess around
She's by his side, nowhere to hide
When they come to town
Send corruption to it's grave
Hidden blades decide your fate
You'll pay the price for your life of crime
When it's your time to die
Welcome to London, City of the Paupers
Don't think you're safe cause you were
Brought up prim and proper
You really oughta watch your back
You got a stalker six shot revolver
Let's see who can draw first
But if you draw last, you're gonna drop fast
I'll pull my hood down and
Throw on my top hat quit with the kukri
Don't make me prove my skill
I'll take these orphans out the textile
And put you through the mill
As long as I complete my mission
Doesn't matter who I kill
Bet your ass Jack the Ripper's got
Some massive shoes to fill
Knock me off the tracks
I'll come back with direction
Nowhere to run and you have no protection
You can thank Darwin, natural selection
That dude is fly, with that suit and tie
He don't mess around
She's by his side, nowhere to hide
When they come to town
Cause there's Assassin their veins
Trust in them, they'll take the reigns
When your injustice comes to light
It's your time to die
