Shadows & Demons
Yeah, yeah…
Lost in the shadows, fightin’ my mind
Demons inside, they ain’t lettin’ me shine
They say I’m fine, but they blind to the signs
I been at war with the ghosts in my life…
Yo, I been up in the attic, battlin’ static
I panic, my brain is erratic
It’s tragic, I’m manic, I’m stuck in the traffic
Of thoughts that be burnin’ like acid
They told me relax, I told 'em, "I can't!"
I’m holdin' these raps in the palm of my hands
Explodin' like gas when it meets with a match
And I ain't goin’ back, I’m too deep in the trap!
Oh, I don’t wanna fall, but I can’t escape my past
Demons knockin’ at my door, wonder how long this will last…
Shadows creepin’ through my veins, I don’t feel the same
Lately I been drownin’ deep, I can’t numb the pain
If I die before I wake, bury me in flames
Let my soul just levitate, fly beyond the rain…
I been at war with my monsters, I'm boxing
I'm dodgin', they poppin' up often
Talkin' and talkin’, I silence the nonsense
Like coffins, I'm droppin' ‘em, watch it!
I don’t need no doctor, no therapist
Bury this rage in a verse, I inherit it
Parents were careless, my head is nefarious
Still I keep killin’ this game, it’s hilarious!
(Distorted vocal echoes)
Heart froze, but the world still turns...
Blood drips, but the fire still burns...
No love in a place so cursed...
No love in a place so cursed...
Yeah, these shadows they follow, they hollow my soul
Try to escape, but they never let go
I can’t breathe, I can’t see, let me be free…
I just wanna live my dream, but the dark’s in me
Lost in the shadows, fightin’ my mind
Demons inside, they ain’t lettin’ me shine
They say I’m fine, but they blind to the signs
I been at war with the ghosts in my life…
Yo, I been up in the attic, battlin’ static

It’s tragic, I’m manic, I’m stuck in the traffic
