Whispering Shadows

Shadows creep on crack concrete I took low, hard, heavy Dodging fate on the street light Obstacle light, vultures, eyes cold No mercy in sight One wrong step and it's late So, buried deep in the fight Mama prays in the kitchen Tears mixed with the steam while I chase Ghosts in the alley Living this fever dream Bullets whisper secrets They sing a deadly tune Lost brothers in the pavement Under the blood red moon Trial life, we ride or die No peace in these streets Hide or slide let the pain that we keep I had trial like a chainsaw My soul is caused And we answer the toll From the block to the grave We hold it down tight Confront the storm, ignite the night No escape from the grind It's easy to be eaten This war's on hard, forever beaten Talk is empty But the clips, they fall Survival's the code Enemies plot in the dark But my radar's on overload Flash of the steel Echoes bounce off the walls One pull of the trigger and empires fall Caught in the crossfire blaze It's left amongst the corners These endless haze days We mask up the corners These endless haze days These endless haze days We mask up for the hunt No names Just to score for one For the falling Then load up for more Feels like the world's closing in Breath short in the cold Every scar tells a story That the young never told But the fire in my chest Won't let the darkness win We rise from the ashes Let the battle begin Trial life, we ride or die No peace in these streets Hide or slide let the pain that we keep I had trial like a chainsaw My soul is caused And we answer the toll From the block to the grave We hold it down tight Don't front the storm Ignite the night No escape from the grind It's easy to be eaten This war's on hard Forever beaten Street life eternal We etched in the stone Drill forever In the chaos, we're home In the chaos, we're home In the chaos, we're home In the chaos, we're home In the chaos, we're home In the chaos, we're home
