Death Grips - The Fear Lyrics






I don't know dude, I just- I just drink blood dude

The fear (jump, jump, jump)
I'm gonna kill somebody (jump, jump, jump)
DON'T JUMP!

Downs you with dull pain
Won't we become strange
Tied up with your legs
Hide helps, on the way
Who will help you fall?
It's just all so frail
So long since we fell
Still don't know we failed
Go for the most tears
Stay cause it gets strange
Went there to shed years
Left there in lead chains
Been there since next year
Scarred us to death chair
Scared us to rest less
Skull full of house guests

The fear
The fear

I feel so sick today
I'm afraid to be here with you
You wanna kill somebody
I'm afraid to be here with you
I feel so sick today
I'm afraid to be here with you
You wanna kill somebody
I'm afraid to be here with you

DON'T JUMP!
Jump, jump, jump
Jump, jump, jump
The fear

Pulled close by its pliers
Cold, sharp, and expired
Like ribs of vampire
Like winds on high wire
Whips you like it cares
Push you down more stairs
Kicks you for quick laughs
Don't cry you won't last (The fear)
Missing entire weeks
Months gone as I peak
Lost tongue, mystery
Everyone's on to me (The fear)
Who's this stole my heels
Stumbled into hell
Hates me till it heals
Wakes me with the chills (The fear)

I feel so sick today
I'm afraid to be here with you
You wanna kill somebody
I'm afraid to be here with you
I feel so sick today
I'm afraid to be here with you
You wanna kill somebody
I'm afraid to be here with you

Frightening and embarrassing
Like one percent and pleasantries
Gather your things bolt till you reach
The crystal fields of ketamine
I'll meet you there, I'll beat you there
Bet I'll be there before you leave
Time you get there I’ll be midair
Like peace of mind's a bore to me

The fear
The fear
Jump, jump
DON'T JUMP!

When the rail holds you
Flight like stairs grows you
Off your mind must wish
This is not my ditch
Ah that ditch wears you
Host torn and worn through
Hard looks at blank walls
Held way too long pause
The fear
The fear

  6. d.... ....

    not gonna like, this track's instrumental is orgasmic
    ESPECIALLY that piano part at 0:41
    i mean, this whole track is amazing but there's something about the instrumental that makes it so satisfying to me

  7. d.... s....

    how is nobody appreciating that hook?

  8. N.... ....

    I really didn't like this but when 0:59 came it was a jam.

  9. P.... S....

    Now, you must acquire a taste for FREEFORM JAZZ.

  10. A.... L....

    This reminds me of a DMT trip gone bad

  11. D.... K....

    I feel so sick today

  12. r.... w....

    I wonder if Justin Chancellor's time in Death Grips, especially on this song, helped influence the creation of the name for Tool's new album: "Fear Inoculum".

  13. a.... c....

    This track is low carb.

  14. A.... ....

    "I dunno, dude, I just-- I just drink blood, dude."

  20. P.... ....

    my brakes in my car broke and i crashed into someone listening to this song

  21. B.... ....

    This literally fucking Scooby Doo chase music. I think they're just trolling us at this point, spoon feeding their fans the most random sounds they can create and of course we eat the shit up. Not mad though, well played Mr. Grips

  22. C.... M....

    What did I end up listening to this song again?

  23. d.... ....

    mc ride pulled out that break the bank flow.

  24. B.... P....

    I always knew Frank Zappa would come back to lead an experimental hip hop group.

  25. P.... W....

    YOU WANNA KILL SOMEBAHDEH!!!!!

    Sam Butera - Fever

  32. J.... ....

    When you think about, it makes perfect sense that Death Grips would make a song that incorporates bebop jazz.

  33. S.... ....

    Did they sample the shining?

  34. S.... ....

    Gets better every relisten

  35. B.... W....

    this makes me imagine a batman comic that wasnt made yet

  38. C.... ....

    0:59 is too good

  39. D.... O....

    Fucking sick song, I love it and I think it's the best one on the album. Exmilitary vibes anyone?

  40. m.... ....

    year of the snitch didnt have to go so hard but it did

  41. R.... M....

    One of my favourite DG songs, right up there with TPTB. To me it's also one of their most personal songs alongside On GP, as although it has no overt references to suicide or such, Ride is still vulnerable as hell in a downward spiralling trajectory which picks up throughout the track. It also explores the Jekyll and Hyde narrative that I keep hearing in the album (maybe a reach), where in the chorus it's like Ride is shouting 'You wanna kill somebody,' representing his DG persona, and the high pitched voice saying 'I'm afraid to be here with you,' representing everyday Stefan who's afraid to be with Ride because Ride keeps highlighting his depression through DG and is sort of stopping Stefan from suicide, putting a backspin on the idea that the loud one is the most dangerous. This is probably far from true but it's what I take away from it. All in all though, I feel like this song is what all of DG has been leading up to. It's as triumphant as it is depressive and when Ride says "Bolt to crystal fields of Ketamine" to explain substance abuse as a coping mechanism gets me every time.

  42. m.... ....

    this literally goes so hard hands down best track on year of the snitch

  43. S.... ....

  52. H.... ....

    The lead synth sounds a lot like the bassline from Metallica's For Whom The Bell Tolls, but played by a jazzist
    In a rave
    While he's drooling and overdosing on heroine

  53. S.... M....

    I’m confused. So it must be art

  54. V.... ....

    every time i hear the fear i imagine a magician doing the voila motion with his hands and swinging his cape as he walks away

  55. A.... ....

  90. C.... V....

    This is my favorite album so far because how much you hear of each member. Zach’s drumming is beyond comprehension.

  91. j.... ....

    Something about the collapse at 1:21 is just perfection, the sound of pure fear

  92. y.... s....

    sounds at the beginning and end of the track are same as in "known for it", Deaf Grips be on some Castlevania shit

  93. L.... ....

    "I don't know dude, I just drink blood dude"

  94. v.... ....

    J A Z Z

  98. F.... ....

    There's a guy playing Town of Salem who switches his nickname from Zack Hill to Death Grips constantly

  99. M.... ....

    Man, I get a really strong Nine Inch Nails vibe from that "I feel so sick today" part. I think it's the delivery of it or something.

    M.... ....

    fuck yes! that's a downward spiral scream

  100. R.... R....

    Horror jazz with a psychedelic touch.
    Huh, never thought I’d see the day.
