I can't escape from the shadows

I see the dark in my way

It's hard to evade

I'm always placed in a battle

I see the scars in my face

It's hard to convey

I feel restrained by the lasso

I see I'm caught and restrained

It's hard to escape

I can't escape from the shadows

I see the dark in my way

It's hard to evade

A lot of times less is more

The less that I address is the best for all

For every party involved

I gotta make sure the person getting bullets is person who the message for

Hear me loud and clear

My lungs full of dread, finna drown in fear I need some chest support

I gotta get all these fair weather friends outta here and expect the storm

When it rains, I expect a pour

I'm a dog, I'm a reservoir

Break the walls down and wreck the door

See Ima make way through

Lot of dumb shit I gotta stop making investments on

All the rhetoric they talking probably best ignored

I vent when I press record

All these skeleton be laying in the closet by the dresser drawers

When the fire too bright, the shadows make it dark I can rest assured, man

I can't escape from the shadows

I see the dark in my way

It's hard to evade

I'm always placed in a battle

I see the scars in my face

It's hard to convey

I feel restrained by the lasso

I see I'm caught and restrained

It's hard to escape

I can't escape from the shadows

I see the dark in my way

It's hard to evade

Feel like I'm Makaveli in '96

I been a target the adversaries cannot hit

They hate to hear when I'm keeping it mega real

The truth resembles a venom, they classify me as toxic

I got these feelings vocabulary cannot list

I can't put it into words at all and worst of all

Its something I've had to carry and lock in

They couldn't break in with a lock smith

Ima remain in the field

Russian roulette, only the pistol is aiming at them

One in the chamber gotta bring my A game or be killed

They gotta pay the dues, so 'til they pay up the bill, Ima be dangerous still

I really wonder if whatever they saying is real

The very question let's me know that we can't even build

I started seeing all the light at the tunnel but now the shadows are makin it dim

If it's a way, it's a will

I don't know what I'm needing to find peace

Don't know if it's in my realm or it's even beyond reach

The Highway that go to hell I'm careening at top speed

Take away my joy and then leaving here Scot-free? Think again

The motives they secretly got deep

Inside of they heart, that shit don't even surprise me

And every time it shows, they frequently cop pleas

My response: **** please

All about my kids, they the ones that I see on my Lock Screen

They deserve the energy people do not need

If the love you got for me is all on condition you can keep it from 'round me

That is on everything, look

Try to gaslight but promise I'm never compelled

All your "woe is me"s ain't making me question myself

I was born in the dark like Bane so the shadows remember me well

I can't escape from the shadows

I see the dark in my way

It's hard to evade

I'm always placed in a battle

I see the scars in my face

It's hard to convey

I feel restrained by the lasso

I see I'm caught and restrained

It's hard to escape

I can't escape from the shadows

I see the dark in my way

It's hard to evade
