[Intro]
I been gone with the wind, yeah, I’m driftin’ again…
Life’s a rigged game, but I still play pretend…
Heart of a lion, but the hunger’s been thin…
Demons whisperin’ close — can you pull me in?
[Verse 1]
I lost control like a soul in the snow,
Chasin’ highs just to bury the low.
Warrior born, but the war took its toll,
Mind of a hustle, hands full of soul —
But lately I’m crooked, bent at the seams,
Drownin’ in my dreams, stuck in between
Love and the lies that I let myself breathe,
Takin’ more than I give, yeah, I feed my greed.
Selfish when I should’ve been selfless instead,
Left you out in the cold while I played with my head.
Now the guilt’s settin’ deep, diggin’ trenches in bed,
Where I fight with my shadow and talk to the dead.
[Pre-Chorus]
I know… I know I been wrong…
But I’m carved from the storm, I was built to hold on…
Yet the weight of the world’s got me sinkin’ too long…
Can your love be the rope when I’m breakin’ the song?
[Chorus]
Can you ease my mind before I fade?
Before the shadows start to parade…
I been dancin’ with devils, flirtin’ with pain,
Tryna find peace in a world full of rain.
Yeah, I was born a warrior, but warriors break,
And the lion inside is too tired to rage.
Can I count on you? ‘Fore I slip through the crack?
Down where the light don’t shine…
Where the cold don’t look back…
[Verse 2]
I been dodgin’ fate like a curse in the vein,
Every check I cash, it just feeds the same pain.
Success taste bitter when you’re lonely inside,
Fame like a mask with no face to hide.
I hustle to numb it, but the numbness attacks,
Stackin’ my blessings but still facin’ the black.
You the only truth in a sea of disguise,
Look in your eyes, see the soul that survives.
Forgive me the times I ghosted your call,
Chasin’ a lie that couldn’t love me at all.
I need you like oxygen, real as it gets,
You the calm in the storm, the last ember left.
[Bridge]
The world don’t care if you're bleedin’ slow…
They’ll smile at your pain, then pass you the blow…
But you… you hold me together when I’m split at the seam…
So please… don’t let go…
[Chorus]
Can you ease my mind before I fade?
Before the shadows start to parade…
I been dancin’ with devils, flirtin’ with pain,
Tryna find peace in a world full of rain.
Yeah, I was born a warrior, but warriors break,
And the lion inside is too tired to rage.
Can I count on you? ‘Fore I slip through the crack?
Down where the light don’t shine…
Where the cold don’t look back…
[Outro]
I been gone with the wind…
But I’m comin’ back…
If you’re still here when I land…
Just hold my hand…
Yeah… hold my hand…
Before I vanish…
Where the light don’t… shine…
