Gotham Lyrics by Eskafell

2019

[Verse 1]
King in the north, not a Stark
I was forged in the dark
My water is Smart
That's velour on my arms
Like a force on the march
The storm's coming, start building an ark
I roll with the punches and burnout a car
Cook up a fusion to burn like a star
(Night falls)
I write satanic verses like Rushdie, don't push me
These jokers are clowns like Krusty
Trust me, don't try me
Don't make me get grimy like Wiley
When I dash up on-stage like hyphen
And shut down the rave like sirens
It's not Hong Kong but don't be surprised if I incite a riot
No denying, it's exciting
Stood next to the flames with a lighter
No hiding, I'm just styling
Iconic without the designer
Kerosine on me but prove that I started the fire
As the sun sets on Gotham the dark night rises

[Chorus 1]
When the light's out I run the house
(So far, so good)
Underground, play 'round with that basement sound
(So far, so good)
I'll be outside when the sky comes down
(So far, so good)

C'est l'histoire d'une société qui tombe
Jusqu'ici tout va bien

[Verse 2]
Step in the scene, all eyes on me baring my teeth
Lone wolf, I don't need a --
I lead the --, ahead of the pack
My vision's keen, I see my dreams without sleep
The future's bright 'cause I stay full beam
I know because of the places I've been
If I fall I'll be back like Sean on screen
Oh my, I've been up all night
Don't ask me why, you can see in my eyes
Oh my, I'm done with watching life blow by
Now, riddle me this:
Dominoes exist just to get played and fall
What do you stand for? Or are you the same?
Just a spectator watching the games
Safe in your seat, not me
I make power moves and power moves
The new king in his blue suede Pumas
Watching my back for Brutus and getting my dues

[Chorus 2]
Rain's pouring, the sky's falling
(So far, so good)
Fire burning, flames scorching
(So far, so good)
But we survive the storm
(So far, so good)
And we stand

[Interlude]
Back in my dreams, I'm alone when I sleep
Visions of darkness, my heart hits the carpet
It's hard not to fall when Lucifer's calling
Where is my Virgil? I'm Dante
Surrounded by demons, I'm haunted
Phantoms keep playing, run round in my brain
I think I must say I'm insane
Hold up
Raised wild like Mowgli
Show me what you want
(Show me)
I don't scare easy
(My eyes run dry)
Why should I fear another man if he...
(Not afraid to cry)

[Outro]
The sirens call
The cold approaches
