Talking to Shadows

(Verse) Blood splatter, they say it’s matter, But that pain don’t cut, leave you lifeless, shattered. Streets cold, heart froze, no love in the gutter, Dark nights, bright lights, but they only bring clutter. Chasin' shadows, demons whisper in my ear, Lost souls in the mix, man, it’s hard to steer clear. Trust is a myth, loyalty's a rare sight, In this game of life, only the strong fight. Life's a gamble, roll the dice, take a chance, But the stakes are high, ain't no room for romance. Ghosts in my rearview, haunt me like a phantom, Blood on my hands, but I’m still in the anthem. Pain in my verses, every word cuts deep, In the silence of the night, where the real ones creep. A king with a crown, but my throne feels cursed, In this world of chaos, man, I’m feelin’ immersed.
