Shadows Talk

Shadows Talk **

** Yeah, darkness creeping, feels like a ghost, Ooh, can’t trust these faces, I’m haunted the most. Makin' moves in the city where the pain don’t show, But shadows talk louder than the friends I know. Yeah, never know who’s fake, who’s real, who’s a snake, Harmony in my heart but damn, still got that ache. Cleveland nights, cold winds whisper in my ear, Bitch, trust is dead, all I feel is that fear. Remember nights hustlin’, tears drop like rain, Ooh, loyalty ain’t a game, it’s a motherfuckin' chain. Grew up with my brothers, blood thick like a scar, Yeah, we made it this far, but it’s hard where we are. **

** Shadows talk, shadows talk, can you hear their call? Yeah, trapped in the silence, just waiting to fall. Ooh, shadows talk, shadows whisper my name, Bitch, I’m living on the edge, and I’m tired of the game. **

** Yeah, creeping like a thief at the dead of the night, Ooh, watchin' my back, got my hustle in sight. Played the field with the real, but the fake piece of shit, Haters want me down, but I’m still livin' lit. Harmony fades, streets filled with rage, Niggas makin' moves, but I’m trapped in a cage. Poverty's a killer, wrapped tight in a grip, Yeah, I learned to fly but I can’t let it slip. Motherfuckers envy what they can’t comprehend, Yeah, I rise through the pain, but where the fuck is the end? Still I grip my dreams like my boys grip the block, Ooh, shadows whisper, but they can't break my walk. **

** Shadows talk, shadows talk, can you hear their call? Yeah, trapped in the silence, just waiting to fall. Ooh, shadows talk, shadows whisper my name, Bitch, I’m living on the edge, and I’m tired of the game. **

** Ooh, whispers in the wind, I’m feeling the dread, Yeah, every step forward’s a dance with the dead. Lights flicker low, but my vision stays clear, Yeah, shadows don’t scare me when I’m holding my fear. Harmony in my heart, gotta keep that in check, 'Cause friends turn to foes when there's paper to wreck. Shadows talking loud, but I drown out their call, Yeah, just me and my dreams, I’ll never let them fall. **

** Shadows talk, shadows talk, can you hear their call? Yeah, trapped in the silence, just waiting to fall. Ooh, shadows talk, shadows whisper my name, Bitch, I’m living on the edge, and I’m tired of the game.
