Evil Lyrics by Shahn Akhtar

Dark City

0

[Verse 1]
Pen and paper causing heavenly action
I despise myself in theory but I’m better in practice
Chain reactions in my brain have got me steady relapsing
Free of passion pain and guilt, I crave a better attraction
Revelations from God had got me feelin lit
Then I saw the facade and I ain’t feeling it
Cause there’s a man inside the dark I swear he follows me
Call on the abyss as all my demons start to swallow me
See him out the window and I see him in the alleyway
Should’ve stayed inside and never went out like like my daddy say
Melt my soul cause my heart is cold and hell’s hot
Tripping over dopamine and hoping I don’t get shot
Ain’t no diamond cause I’m cracking under pressure
Got a weapon in my closet that I’m keeping for good measure
Numb, soon enough forgetting pain and pleasure
I’m addicted to the fast life, and paying for my pleasure

[Verse 2]
See the vultures coming, picking buried bones
I hear the fading cries, they barely carry tones
I see the people never changing like they set in stone
Never go outside, I’m always heading home
Live in a dark city, carry no spark with me
I see the devil every night he try to spar with me
Wake up every morning, feel a little colder
Reaper hanging on my shoulder, and I feel him growing bolder
Visions of the apocalypse
You bitches barely conscious, I seen a lotta shit
But if I speak up they gon bury me in hollow tips
They say I’m over the edge, they say I’m falling quick
You try to battle reason, I try to battle demons
I try to swim against the river as I battle seasons
Busy building up an army while you steady scheming
And if you try to cross me, I leave you barely breathing
