Lyrics

[Intro]

Late night

Walls talk

Clock stuck

Heart locked

[Verse 1]

I been walkin' down the hallway of my own head

See a shadow in the mirror that ain't quite me yet

Every corner got a whisper that know what I did

Every silence feel violent when it digs in my ribs

Mama said "pray" but the prayers bounce back

Like they hit a black ceiling then they fall through the cracks

Voices sittin' on my shoulders, holdin' my breath

Every laugh in the distance sound close to my neck (yeah)

[Chorus]

Shadows in my head, won't let me be

Feel eyes on my back when it's only me

I see dead faces in my TV screen

Tell me, am I haunted or just losin' me

Shadows in my head, follow my feet

Hear my name in the dark every time I breathe

If I scream out loud, would you even see

Or would you say I'm crazy while they stare at me (while they stare at me)

[Verse 2]

Got a man in the corner wearin' my old coat

He don't blink, don't breathe, but he still got hope

He say "Come take a seat, we been waitin' for you"

All the ghosts from my past in a church back pew

I been talkin' to the cracks in the bedroom paint

They been tellin' me the saints ain't really that saint

My reflection start smilin' when I feel real low

Ask me, "Who you really trust when the lights all go?" (huh?)

[Chorus]

Shadows in my head, won't let me be

Feel eyes on my back when it's only me

I see dead faces in my TV screen

Tell me, am I haunted or just losin' me

Shadows in my head, follow my feet

Hear my name in the dark every time I breathe

If I scream out loud, would you even see

Or would you say I'm crazy while they stare at me

[Bridge]

Is it you?

Is it me?

Is it guilt?

Is it grief?

Every knock on the door sound like last rites

Every creak in the floor spell my last night

If I'm drownin' on the inside, can you hear that sound?

Or you just see a smile while I'm spiralin' down (down)

[Chorus]

Shadows in my head, won't let me be

Feel eyes on my back when it's only me

I see dead faces in my TV screen

Tell me, am I haunted or just losin' me

Shadows in my head, follow my feet

Hear my name in the dark every time I breathe

If I fade right now into what they see

Would you pull me out

Or leave the dark with me (oh)

Style

rapmoody blues-soul fusion with male vocals; minor-key rhodes and reverb-drenched guitar set a haunted groove over a slowknocking hip-hop drum pocket. verses lean into gritty rap cadences that melt into sungmelismatic r&b lines. chorus swells with stacked gospel-style harmonies and a gritty bass line; subtle organ swells and distant vocal chants creep in like ghosts. final hook strips back to voicerhodesand subletting the paranoia hang in the air.r&bhip hopsoulbluesenglish
