I don't believe you wanna see the other side of me

Crooked heart, crooked smile, but a prodigy

Fallen angels on the road, I see them walk a beast

I've been praying for a while, it's like my talk is cheap

This message is not for the weak

Finna let my demons out, somebody gon' call the priest

This pain run deep, can't find relief

These shattered dreams beneath, battle scars

I've been through the fire and I won't retreat

This message, it ain't for the weak

It's for the ones who feel the pain

Fighting battles in the dark, still walking through the pouring rain

Demons creeping in my soul, I'm screaming but they won't release

Somebody light the candle now, somebody gon' call the priest

Laughing loud inside my head, they trying hard to take control

But I've been swinging through the fight, I'm coming back to claim it whole

Pressure heavy but I'm strong, I never fall, I never cease

Somebody light the candle now, somebody gon' call the priest

Uh, this ain't side ****, this is EIS

I come from the other side, the belly of the beast

Where blood and tears they stain the ground, the war don't ever cease

Where hunger keeps you wide awake and peace is out of reach

I'm the one that come with pride, I'm the one that lied

I done saved his life a hundred times, secrets I'ma keep

Really I'm his only friend cause he the black sheep

But in his silence I can hear the wisdom running deep

This message, it ain't for the weak

It's for the ones who feel the pain

Fighting battles in the dark, still walking through the pouring rain

Demons creeping in my soul, I'm screaming but they won't release

Somebody light the candle now, somebody gon' call the priest

Laughing loud inside my head, they trying hard to take control

But I've been swinging through the fight, I'm coming back to claim it whole

Pressure heavy but I'm strong, I never fall, I never cease

Somebody light the candle now, somebody gon' call the priest

Lord, can I testify, Lord, I'm still alive

Put my hands up to the sky and then I touch the bottle

Put my hand upon the Bible and I still ah lie

And I put that on my mama and I swear to God

Gotta take over the fire, gotta stir the pot

Cause the ones that come before you, Lord, they start to drop

Take another shot, make sure you drink a lot

And when he don't hear from God, I say I'm all you got

This message, it ain't for the weak

It's for the ones who feel the pain

Fighting battles in the dark, still walking through the pouring rain

Demons creeping in my soul, I'm screaming but they won't release

Somebody light the candle now, somebody gon' call the priest

Laughing loud inside my head, they trying hard to take control

But I've been swinging through the fight, I'm coming back to claim it whole

Pressure heavy but I'm strong, I never fall, I never cease

Somebody light the candle now, somebody gon' call the priest
