I been fightin’ demons in the dark, don’t nobody see the pain
Made it out the mud, but I still walkin’ through the rain
They say I’m cold-hearted, I just had to numb the brain
And if they play with me, I promise, bullets never miss they lane
(Verse 1)
Came up out that gutter, I was sleepin’ where it’s cold
Dreamin’ of a million, had to get it, had no home
I can’t let ’em take me, keep that iron when I roam
Mama say she prayin’ every night I make it home
I done lost my brothers to the streets, it made me savage
Now I’m countin’ hunnids, but the pain, I still can’t manage
Heart been broke so many times, I had to bandage
Still I keep it real, never fold, never panic
(Hook)
I been fightin’ demons in the dark, don’t nobody see the pain
Made it out the mud, but I still walkin’ through the rain
They say I’m cold-hearted, I just had to numb the brain
And if they play with me, I promise, bullets never miss they lane
(Verse 2)
Money on my mind, I can’t let the devil trick me
Trust is just a game, so I don’t let nobody with me
They smile in your face, but they prayin’ that you fall
I been through it all, swear to God, I seen it all
Now I’m ridin’ with that fire, windows tinted, feel the vibe
Told my girl I love her, but the streets, they call my life
I just wanna live, but the past cut me deep
NBA forever, I put pain on these beats
