fate

Heart cold, got the weight like a tall tally. Enemies lurking, I can sense the tension, Every move calculated, no room for extension. Got the city on my back, it’s a heavy load, Trust no one in this game, it’s a treacherous road. Whispers in the dark, they plotting my downfall, But I’m built for the struggle, I’ll never stall. (Verse 2) Eyes on the prize, but the world’s full of snakes, Fake smiles, fake love, all for the take. Counted out before, now I’m stacking my chips, In this life of sin, I’m just tightening my grips. Ghosts of my past, they haunt me at night, But I’m ready for the battle, ready for the fight. We gon' get you, boy, you can’t hide from fate, In this game of survival, it’s all too late. Heart cold, got the weight like a tall tally, Shadows creeping, lurking deep in the alley, Night's a canvas, paint it dark, no rally, Echoes of the past, yeah, they haunt like a mallet. Chains on my soul, feel the drag and the strain, Ice in my veins, can’t escape from the pain, Trust is a gamble, like dice in the rain, Lost in the struggle, but I’m still in the game. (Verse 2) Eyes wide open, but the vision's all blurry, Life's a race, but I'm stuck in a hurry, Dreams turn to dust, and the nights get murky, Chasing shadows, but the light feels so surly. Thoughts like a prison, yeah, they cage me inside, Fighting my demons, but they won't let it slide, Heart cold, got the weight, can’t run, can’t hide, In this dark world, I’m the ghost in the ride.
