Howl Down the Chimney feat. Krazee Jarmin

Silver Tongue... I am a target

I discovered early on I had a talent for persuading
A way with words that switch your neurons to receiving
I can talk you out of anything you own
Instant trust and you'll let me into your home
It's like hypnosis but there's no defense against it
Anything I want, I can get my hands on it
But I'm intelligent enough to know the score
Being greedy gets you caught coming back for more
So I keep a low profile
Keep my name out of the government's x-files
I only use my power just enough to get by
Enough scratch to sustain a simple lifestyle

I thought I was doing enough to keep myself out of the spotlight
But evidently my strategy wasn't airtight
Yesterday there was a dark sedan following me
Thought I was paranoid until they took a shot at me
Another inch and the bastards would've killed me
As it was, the bullet only grazed me

I arrived home shaken to find a cryptic message on my answering machine

Wir kennen deine Nummer, du kannst dich nicht verstecken
Wir haben Leute ueberall, wir werden dich entdecken
Und zu hacken brauchen wir dich nicht, wir wissen alles ueber dich
Dein Einkommen allmonatlich, du brauchst es nicht, wirst bald verrecken
Wir werden dich bestrafen, also geh besser nicht mehr schlafen
Halt dich wach und den Ball flach, keinen Krach, bleib unterm Dach
Denn Satellit und wir hoer'n mit, folgen dir auf Schritt und Tritt
Kapitulier doch und bleib steh'n, wir seh'n dich sowieso bald draufgeh'n

And I don't even speak German

It wasn't just a case of mistaken identity
I've got a silver tongue and it makes me a target
A shadowy organization is after me
I've got a silver tongue and it makes me a target

I've got to lay low for awhile
I'll find someplace safe
Figure out what to do next

As I said before, my wife wouldn't even let me get past the intro while she was in the room, so this is a first listen. Interesting hurky-jerky flow. At no point do I feel like you're not in control of the genre. I like the pizzicato strings in the background. The vocals are a little too hot in the mix. J-Krueg's rap is pretty cool, though I'll need to have my brother translate it. Right before and after his part, the rap sort of devolved into spoken-word, which is pretty neat. Heck of a story here. I wouldn't boot this one out, nosiree.
