Boxed In Lyrics by MadChild

Shane

2021

And it always seems to go like this

I was pretty crazy bro, look
Straight up, I was thugged out

Knucklehead to a drugged out
Kid; was bugged out
Lost years and I came back
To a new world that just loves clout

No heart it was tugged out
Then stomped on till the love left
Light pink now it's dark black
Blood red, I'm not upset

My soul was charcoal
In a dark hole, it's okay
Changed the way that I look at life
You should too, it'll be okay

Ay, change your mind into a weapon, no more cocaine
Stop complainin' and soul drainin', think perfect thoughts and start prayin'

I'm not playin, my art's sayin' what my soul's sayin' and I won't change
This time when I start a fire, got gasoline no more propane

Just soak it in and then hold it in while I show you all what is possible
If you're moving right in the universe; I will prove you can be unstoppable

I'm 45 lookin 35, by the time I'm done I'll look 30 dog
I'm sober and training I'm clean as fuck but I'm not afraid to get dirty dog

I'm not the guy that you knew before, I will hold my ground and then hold it down
That younger me you still think you know did a lot of drugs and it slowed me down


They want me boxed in
They want me boxed in
Happy I was hiding from the world, hope I stay locked in
Hoping I would keep all my relationships as toxic
So many bad memories in life but I just block them
Now I'm feeling brand new
Now I'm feeling brand new
Mad because there's nothing out there that I feel I can do
Follow what I'm saying on this album and you can too
Set your goals and go and live your life, you always planned to


Look I had millions and lost millions and got it down to the pennies man
Look, any man taking twenty Xans like every day ruins any plan

Built an entire empire, pounding my chest like I'm King Kong
Climbed to the top of my building then I started ripping it down like I'm King Kong

Did it my way, Frank Sinatra but the thing's wrong
Now I'm back at square one, I'm a ding dong

But I'm moving right and I'm learning things and I'm quickly watching things turn around
I'm working hard and I'm rebuilding and this time I won't burn it down

I thank god that I'm aging good like good whiskey of veterancy
But some dumb fuckin asshole from my past still tryna threaten me

And telling me that I can't run my own company, that shit crazy right
And saying he's gonna get me, well that shit does not keep me up at night

Supposed to be scared, cause he's telling me I'm dead
To me it kinda feels like I got free rent in his head

Bringing up some shit from 15 years ago, that's something right
I guess if I am on their mind, I must be doing something right


They want me boxed in
They want me boxed in
Happy I was hiding from the world, hope I stay locked in
Hoping I would keep all my relationships as toxic
So many bad memories in life but I just block them
Now I'm feeling brand new
Now I'm feeling brand new
Mad because there's nothing out there that I feel I can do
Follow what I'm saying on this album and you can too
Set your goals and go and live your life, you always planned to
