Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Woke up with the chill on me
Same dream, same teeth on me
Same name on a cracked ID
But the eyes in the glass look past me
Hand shakes when I lace these boots
Whole block know the weight I move
Whole lotta talk, I don't chase no proof
Just pray what I did don't trace back through
Mama said, "Boy, that's a curse you hold"
Granddad gone, but the word stayed cold
Every choice that I made like a mark, like a cut
Whole family tree got
[Chorus]
Shadows in my blood
They don't ever sleep
Runnin' through my veins
Crawlin' when I breathe (yeah)
I could change my name
Still they catchin' up
Can't outrun the stain
Shadows in my blood
[Verse 2]
Heart beat like a knock at the door
Every siren sound like a war
Every hug feel a little too short
'Cause I don't know who I'm livin' here for
Got a son now, eyes too bright
Terrified he'll inherit this life
Told God, "If you really outside
Cut the cord, let it die in my mind"
But the rush, that hunger, that itch
Every time I get close to the cliff
Feel a hand on my back when I slip
Same hand that my father once gripped
[Chorus]
Shadows in my blood
They don't ever sleep
Runnin' through my veins
Crawlin' when I breathe (breathe)
I could burn it down
Still they rise from dust
Look what I became
Shadows in my blood
[Bridge]
If I'm born from the dark
Can I bend it to light? (yeah)
If the past in my pulse
Can I edit that line?
Tattooed sins
Under this skin
Do I pass 'em on
Or do they end right here? (right here)
[Chorus]
Shadows in my blood
They don't ever sleep
Whisper in my ear
Every time I slip (every time I slip)
If I break this chain
Will it be enough?
Til my last breath buzz
Shadows in my blood

Style
rap, Dark, cinematic trap beat at mid-tempo; hollow kick and tight snare under a droning sub-bass. Haunting piano loop and reversed vocal chops weave through the verses, male vocals laid-back but icy. Hook explodes with stacked, chant-style doubles and distant choir pads, then strips down to bass and hi-hats for the verse swagger.
