Demons Lyrics by Chris Cookz

Into The Water

2015

[Chorus]
Demons tryna hold me down
In my mind and my life (they be all around)
I used to know them by name but I won't call them out
They tryna take me away but I'll be stronger now
Demons never hold me down
In my mind and my life (they be all around)
They used to call me by name but now I block them out
Never going down a foul route is my motive now
[Verse 1]
For 10 years of my life I been fighting with a pen
Writing all my sins so with a mic I can cleanse
Myself of demons when I otherwise might have given in
Going down this long road with no lighting at the end
But I'll begin again, blow that dust off my pen and pad
Still spitting writtens killing demons with a sword of lead
I've got assorted debts but, I'ma forge ahead
No more looking back nah that's for foolish men
And I ain't one a them, I'm only looking forward now
Demons all around me but I'll brush them off my shoulders now
And I'ma stand up ready to shine
No more dark from my past cuz my future is bright
Behind is a black tunnel but I'll follow the light
Now I'm in a great spot set on getting it right
I'll climb the ladder to the top of my life now in my mind
All that really matters is the love of my wife
[Chorus]
Demons tryna hold me down
In my mind and my life (they be all around)
I used to know them by name but I won't call them out
They tryna take me away but I'll be stronger now
Demons never hold me down
In my mind and my life (they be all around)
They used to call me by name but now I block them out
Never going down a foul route is my motive now
[Verse 2]
So many times I talked with them
Demons in my mind and in my own time I walked with them
But now I'm stalking them, killing them all with kindness
I'm turning a blind eye when they be tryna bind Chris
Because of music I'ma lose them, I'ma force them out
Ten years in the making and I'm shaking off all the doubt
Hating all the coward routes lazy's what I'm talking bout
Yo they wanna call me down but I will not be falling now
I'm too lucid to lose it over some stupid shit
I've seen the light and I'm never moving on foolishness
Gotta have a reason to believe in whatcha moving with
My reason is my wife shes the rock to which I anchor ship
The sacrifies that I'm making and she's making to make it
Are insane she's my hero I would never fake it
I've had demons before but now they've all been vanquished
I'm so thankful for the help that I have had to face em
[Chorus]
Demons tryna hold me down
In my mind and my life (they be all around)
I used to know them by name but I won't call them out
They tryna take me away but I'll be stronger now
Demons never hold me down
In my mind and my life (they be all around)
They used to call me by name but now I block them out
Never going down a foul route is my motive now
Demons tryna hold me down
In my mind and my life (they be all around)
I used to know them by name but I won't call them out
They tryna take me away but I'll be stronger now
Demons never hold me down
In my mind and my life (they be all around)
They used to call me by name but now I block them out
Never going down a foul route is my motive now
