Lyrics
[Verse]
In the heart of the bayou, where the mossy oak trees sway
There are legends of monsters, lurking night and day (oh-oh-oh)
With a shotgun in my hand, I'm on a hunt so wild
But I gotta watch my back, 'cause danger's in each smile
[Verse 2]
Whiskey in my flask, chasing shadows in the night
Walking through the darkness, with my heart filled with fright (ooh-yeah)
There's a curse upon this swamp, it's hard to see it's end
Amidst this treacherous war, the line between foe and friend
[Bridge]
A hunter's life is treacherous, full of risks unknown
In shadows of the moonlight, we face the great unknown (oh-oh-oh)
But if I slip and make a mistake, with my finger on that trigger
I hope I find redemption, before I meet my maker
[Verse 3]
Through murky waters, where the gators silently glide
I tread cautiously, with every step a stride (oh-oh-oh)
The creatures of the night, they hunger for my fear
But I've got my sights set, my resolve crystal clear
[vocal solo]
[Verse 4]
Amongst the tangled roots and the whispering vines
I sense the presence lurking, where darkness intertwines (ooh-yeah)
My senses sharp, my instincts keen, I stalk my prey
For in this deadly game, there's no room for delay
[vocal solo]
[Bridge]
A hunter's creed is written in blood, on the pages of the night
In the depths of the unknown, we choose to stand and fight (oh-oh-oh)
But if I falter and stumble, in this dance with fate
I pray for mercy in the jaws of my final gate
[Chorus]
In the heart of the bayou, where shadows dance and play
I chase the elusive quarry, until the break of day (oh-oh-oh)
For in this twisted labyrinth, where danger's ever near
I'll stake my claim, and face the darkness without fear
[Pre-Outro]
As dawn breaks upon the bayou, the creatures start to fade
Their whispers linger softly, in the secrets they've conveyed (oh-oh-oh)
I may have won this battle, but the war still rages on
In this eternal hunt, where the weak are quickly gone (oh-oh-oh)
[Outro]
So I'll rest my weary bones, under the morning's light
But I know come nightfall, I'll resume the endless fight (ooh-ooh)
For in the heart of the bayou, where the shadows hold their sway
I'll continue to hunt, until my final day. (oh-oh-oh)
