(Verse 1)
I walk in shadows, city breathes beneath my soles,
Counting every heartbeat like it’s digging at my soul.
Life’s a maze of mirrors, truth fractured in the glass,
Every friend a reflection, some will fade, some will last.
I scribble prophecy in margins of my notebook,
Every loss a lesson, every glance a second look.
Fuck luck, I make my own fate in the noise,
Every choice a weapon, every failure my voice.
(Chorus – melodic rap hook)
I paint the sky with my skeletons, let ‘em fly,
Every scar is a constellation, every lie a sky.
I’m the architect of pain, the poet of my streets,
Every whisper of my past is a drum beneath my beats.
(Verse 2)
I wrestle with ghosts like they owe me rent,
Lessons learned in silence, that’s where intent is spent.
Hustle in my marrow, dreams in my lens,
Fuck pretending, I speak in verbs, no pretense.
Life’s a chessboard, I move kings, I move pawns,
Every dusk is a canvas, every dawn is a song.
I measure success in breaths I didn’t waste,
In the echoes of truth, in the things I faced.
(Chorus – repeat, layered)
I paint the sky with my skeletons, let ‘em fly,
Every scar is a constellation, every lie a sky.
I’m the architect of pain, the poet of my streets,
Every whisper of my past is a drum beneath my beats.
(Bridge – flow switch, internal rhyme)
I lace the night with syllables, a lit fuse, a spark,
My mind’s a galaxy, my thoughts collide in the dark.
Fuck the clock, fuck the path that they prescribe,
I live in riddles, in rhythms, alive, alive.
I count the wounds that became my currency,
Turned my weakness to bars, my silence to urgency.
Every metaphor a pulse, every simile a vein,
Every verse I spit, yeah, I bleed through the pain.
(Verse 3 – reflective, almost whispered)
I learned love is a ledger, pain deposits in stacks,
Trust is a currency, but betrayal prints the tax.
I see life in angles, corners most ignore,
I build empires from ashes, foundations from war.
Every line a mirror, every rhyme a confession,
I navigate chaos with conscious precision.
I don’t rap to impress, I rap to unmask,
Every verse a lifeline, every hook a task.
(Chorus – final, powerful)
I paint the sky with my skeletons, let ‘em fly,
Every scar is a constellation, every lie a sky.
I’m the architect of pain, the poet of my streets,
Every whisper of my past is a drum beneath my beats.
(Outro – whispered, haunting)
Skeletons in the sky, shadows in my veins,
I’m awake in the storm, dancing in the rains.
Every loss, every fight, every step I defy,
I’m alive in the chaos, skeletons in the sky.
