Shadows
(My life)
Late nights city lights and the path I walk
Silhouettes of my dreams in the way we talk
Searching for real in a world that's often fake
How much more of this solitude can I take?
I started from the bottom now they say I'm here
But "here" is a place where the love's unclear
Surrounded by faces but who really knows
The weight of this crown and how heavy it grows?
I talk to my reflection but it talks back in silence
In a room full of voices my thoughts turn to violence
Not against others but the demons inside
The insecurities that I constantly hide
'Cause I'm just a man standing in the light
Hoping my shadows don't win the fight
Seeking truth in a land of disguise
Looking for the real in your eyes
I've seen love come and go like the tide on the shore
The more I give they just want more
It's a game of give and take but what's left of me?
Searching for a sign for something to believe
I pour my soul into every line every rhyme
Hoping to find the essence of time
But time is a thief and it's stolen my peace
Leaving behind a sense of incomplete release
'Cause I'm just a man trying to understand
Walking through life with my heart in
'Cause I'm just a man standing in the light
Hoping my shadows don't win the fight
Seeking truth in a land of disguise
Looking for the real in your eyes
I've seen love come and go like the tide on the shore
The more I give they just want more
It's a game of give and take but what's left of me?
Searching for a sign for something to believe
I pour my soul into every line every rhyme
Hoping to find the essence of time
But time is a thief and it's stolen my peace
Leaving behind a sense of incomplete release
'Cause I'm just a man trying to understand
Walking through life with my heart in
