Fighting Demons
See I grew up on the block
Legend has it ever since it's been infested with cops
Remember lil bro got shot
But the bullet wasn't for him it was for his brother
And his brother let it slide even as he got older
See my little sister trynna rock with me and my crew
But I don't wanna get caught up in the things that we do
I'm just tryna keep her safe and let her know that I'm cool
Cause though I love her I don't wanna ending up in the pool
In a pool of her own blood and it be on my conscience
I don't want her getting in the middle of my nonsense
And I been trynna be the brother that she want me to be
But I been caught up in some things that I don't want her to see
I'm just trynna grind and work my way to the top
But niggas out here in the trenches trynna knock me back down
I'm posted to keep it silent ain't no kiss and tellin
No it don't get to my head, but no they still ain't my friends
Demons in my brain
My mind stay like a train
Switching through these lanes
I'm tired of playing all these games
Show me where I can do better
I stay writing these letters
I'm flying with no feathers
But our souls bind like it's tether
Think I need a minute
So I can gather up my thoughts and contemplate my feelings
I been trynna find the old me back when I was happy
When I could trust the ones that had my back and always laughing
Now I'm down on my knees, begging God for mercy, have mercy on my heart
I made mistakes but I'm repenting, I can't do this on my own
Sometimes I ask myself why I don't pick up the phone
Maybe sometimes I don't wanna talk about what I'm on
And I been walking through this life with a chip on my shoulder
And I been trynna make a way but I been getting colder
Steady reaching for the top but I'm not any closer
Walking through the storm
When it rains, it pours,
I been waiting for the rainbow that's at every corner
Hopefully my struggles disappear I no longer know her
pray I make it out the trenches and my people come with me
I was busy fighting demons and I'm stuck in my feelings
Demons in my brain
My mind stay like a train
Switching through these lanes
I'm tired of playing all these games
Show me where I can do better
I stay writing these letters
I'm flying with no feathers
But our souls bind like it's tether
Legend has it ever since it's been infested with cops
Remember lil bro got shot
But the bullet wasn't for him it was for his brother
And his brother let it slide even as he got older
See my little sister trynna rock with me and my crew
But I don't wanna get caught up in the things that we do
I'm just tryna keep her safe and let her know that I'm cool
Cause though I love her I don't wanna ending up in the pool
In a pool of her own blood and it be on my conscience
I don't want her getting in the middle of my nonsense
And I been trynna be the brother that she want me to be
But I been caught up in some things that I don't want her to see
I'm just trynna grind and work my way to the top
