Shadows

Let me take you back to when I was a youngin Everything was simple I ain’t worrying bout nothing But nothing turned to something I been runnin’ through the game I been building up the pain When you finally living better now but nothing feel the same I ain’t changed, yeah I’m still me Always underrated now but that ain’t ever ruin me All it do is fuel me Friends turn to enemies but that ain’t nothing new to me Hear the voices in my ear saying it ain’t meant to be F*ck ‘em all I made it here now I gotta ball Back against the wall but I’m better under pressure, imma set it off And everybody from my city watching everything I’m doing Hoping that I’m gonna lose it, I won’t ever fall I’m amazed by the critics Never said that I was perfect but I’m livin’ how I live it And I couldn’t give a damn if they got a problem with it Cuz people be your friend only if they benefitting, wassup I can feel it burning I can see it coming in the shadows I can never run away I just need to find my way I just gotta save me from myself I can never go and let it change me It’s the only thing I got People tell me what to do, I been hearing that a lot But you wouldn’t understand if you wasn’t in my life When I gave it everything I had, working through the night This is blood, sweat, tears I been drained but I’m still here Only getting started it be feelin’ like my rookie year 10 years later I been talking to the mirror Tryna be a better man, letting go of all my fear Imma let it out, didn’t know then but I got it now Always gave trust til' they fucked it up and made me doubt Thought it was a problem with myself but it turned out People so cold in this world they don’t care about Anybody else, or anything you doing They always tryna doubt anything that you pursuing Cuz it make 'em insecure if it’s something they ain’t felt I done ran outta trust now I’m moving by myself I can feel it burning I can see it coming in the shadows I can never run away I just need to find my way I just gotta save me from myself
