Shadows behind me always following me
Nothin but shades of gray these shaded trees are hollow beneath
Running away from it has always been so challenging, see
The path ahead is a reminder of the reality
The gravity that keeps a shadow stuck right into the ground
The glue that keeps us tethered underneath the earth it surrounds
The push and pull the pressure's building up inside of the clouds
It is the same thing that's marking us as lost and not found
You see when shadows share the time of day with sun & the light
It means that yesterday is far and there is dust left to bite
When everything is wrong and nothing else can seem to be right
Just remember that your shadow's just an owl of the night
And that's me - a shadow falling into the earth
There is no homeward bound when my insides are covered in dirt
There is no chance that I can make it through without getting hurt
Friday the 13th I was meant to be a shadow since birth
Impending doom looms over
Am I consumed by disclosure
To face this faceless silhouette
It's not the first time that we've met
He felt a cold breath on his shoulder
Superego in the mirror moves over
Finally meet this marionette
That I've controlled with a planchette
Life is boring give me hell here on earth
Cause I've been blessed with this curse since the day of my birth
F*ck work I'd rather murder a verse
It's perverse how many times I feel I've done the adverse
Blood diamonds make these chains hang low
Slowly build up the resistance but the banks don't know
Decapitate DiCaprio incinerate Jane Doe
How many lines of blow we got to do to free Django
Hang onto every syllable that I write
Just to recite them to the demons visiting in the night
When day breaks my sleep paralysis recedes
So I just smoke on sensimilla till my brain starts to bleed
Freud can't even save my from my old id
Lurking just beneath the surface of the sins I just did
I wouldn't change my thoughts even if I could
Because the good place isn't real so tell me why that I should
You're not perfect
You're not perfect
You're not perfect
