Yeah, they say they got my back, but I'm watching my six Every handshake feels like a loaded clip, full of tricks I've seen 'em smile in my face, then whisper behind my back Building walls around my heart, ain't no turning back They talking loyalty, but their actions tell a different tale My trust is a safe, and they all wanna break in and prevail Used to ride for my day ones, but the circle got too wide Now it's just me and my shadow, got nowhere to hide. ​(Chorus) This ain't a game, this trust is a war I'm fighting alone Every single word you speak, is a stone on my throne I'm paranoid, I'm guarded, I can't let nobody in 'Cause the last time I did, man, they left me with a grin, a devilish grin Trust issues, a disease, a trap I'm stuck inside Trying to find an exit, with nowhere to run and hide. ​(Verse 2) I'm seeing ghosts from my past, every time a new friend appears Their friendly gestures feel like daggers, fueling all my fears They say they're different, but I've heard that one before Another lie, another crack in my soul's metal door I'm a king in this castle, but the drawbridge is always up 'Cause every friendly toast feels like a poisoned cup I'm looking for a real one, a solid, a true G But the streets are full of fakes, and that's all I see. ​(Chorus) This ain't a game, this trust is a war I'm fighting alone Every single word you speak, is a stone on my throne I'm paranoid, I'm guarded, I can't let nobody in 'Cause the last time I did, man, they left me with a grin, a devilish grin Trust issues, a disease, a trap I'm stuck inside Trying to find an exit, with nowhere to run and hide. ​(Outro) Yeah, the beat's a steady heartbeat, but my mind is in a race Trapped in this cycle of trust, can't escape this place I'm still searching for a light, a sign of something true But until then, it's just me against the world, me against you.
