Walk Away Shadows

Walk Away Solo Shadows **[Intro - Ad-libbed, low growl]** Yeah... shadows creepin', heart bleedin'... nigga walk alone... fuck it. **[Hook]** I walk away, solo in the dark, heart scarred and torn apart, Hard to love, this pain's my art, bitches come and go like false starts. Fuck the crowd, I stomp alone, concrete throne, no hand to hold, Walk away, let the echoes fade, nigga built from pain's cold blade. (Hard to love... yeah, walk away...) **[Verse 1]** Sittin' in the silence, memories hit like hollow tips, Lost my dawgs to streets' grip, now I'm ghostin' through the mist. She said she ride or die, lied with them bedroom eyes, Now I'm solo flyin', cryin' inside but mask it with pride. Hard to love a king scarred from wars unspoken, Heart broke open, hopin' for peace but it's always chokin'. Niggas switch sides quicker than lanes on the freeway, I walk away, betrayers pray, but karma's my relay. Pockets full of pain, chain swingin' like pendulum swings, Demons singin' hymns while the world blings, I'm invisible wings. Multisyllabic solitude, latitude for my attitude rude, Feelin' like a fool, but cool—I'm the blueprint, unglued. **[Hook]** I walk away, solo in the dark, heart scarred and torn apart, Hard to love, this pain's my art, bitches come and go like false starts. Fuck the crowd, I stomp alone, concrete throne, no hand to hold, Walk away, let the echoes fade, nigga built from pain's cold blade. (Walk away... hard to love, nigga...) **[Verse 2]** Nights get colder, soldiers foldin' under pressure cooker, Lover turned hooker, lookin' for that sugar but I'm the trooper. Double entendre: walk away from the fake, don't stalk the prey, Predator turned prey, now I'm stray, prayin' rain wash the stain. Tears mix with the piss in the alley, rally my sanity shattered, Hard to love when love's a trap, snapped back to reality battered. Mama said "boy hold on," but the rope's frayed and I'm fallin', Callin' out to ghosts, toast to the most lost, now I'm ballin' in bawlin'. Internal inferno burnin', yearnin' for a turn but it's learnin' curve, Serve these bars raw, no preserve—nigga swerve through the hurt. Friends turn fiends, schemes for the green, left me in between, Walk away clean, mean machine, supreme in my regime. **[Bridge - Slowed, emotional ad-libs]** (Ay... fuck... hard to love...) Echoes bouncin' off these empty walls, calls goin' unanswered, Dancer in the dark, spark dimmin', swimmin' in the cancer. Of the soul... walk alone... yeah. **[Hook - Outro fade with echoes]** I walk away, solo in the dark, heart scarred and torn apart, Hard to love (hard to love), this pain's my art (my fuckin' art), Bitches come and go like false starts, fuck the crowd, I stomp alone... Concrete throne, no hand to hold, walk away... let it all fade... nigga. (Walk away... solo... hard to love... yeah, fuck it.)
