Dark Days

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Am I wasting time? Am I checking in, to trade this life? Am I really headed for dark days? The devil in your face don't lie All you do is prey on my pride Maybe they just gas me up I can't read between the lines [Pre-Chorus] Cause the game's like a jail it's a lockdown I get lost in the word, I've been locked out But my brother and my sister got my back now And my mother and my father pull me back out [Chorus] On and on and on Man you know they knock me down knock me down On and on and on Get up and they knock me down knock me down All this shade is a disguise, I can't see right through their eyes On and on and on Get up and they knock me down Oh, oh [Verse 2] I got my mind inside this wire still My mom she tells me if I slip Just don't go downhill Like when I got the deal My advance was fatter than rappers' Stacks out when they mock a phone Only thought about big dollars Thick wallets, diamonds, got lots of clothes Yeah I had the force I would just floss, nobody telling me off Mom and dad they got divorced I didn't want it to be like before That's what pride is, that's how lions think Now I'm lying sick, trying to just get through my daze But everybody is a monster [Pre-Chorus] Cause the game's like a jail it's a lockdown I get lost in the word, I've been locked out But my brother and my sister got my back now And my mother and my father pull me back out [Chorus] On and on and on Man you know they knock me down knock me down On and on and on Get up and they knock me down knock me down All this shade is a disguise, I can't see right through their eyes On and on and on Get up and they knock me down Oh, oh [Bridge] I'm lost in the shadows, falling from grace And they left me in the dark out here The strain is gone, though I ask myself Am I really headed for dark days? (No I won't be headed for dark days) [Chorus] On and on and on Man you know they knock me down knock me down On and on and on Get up and they knock me down knock me down All this shade is a disguise, I can't see right through their eyes On and on and on Get up and they knock me down Oh, oh
