Can't fight these demons I've tried
Can't trust these thoughts in my mind
So reckless
So reckless
Can't fight these demons I've tried
Can't trust these thoughts in my mind
So reckless
So reckless
Foot on they necks I'm playing for keeps
All of the benefits that they reap
Have come from my city
Hope Jesus forgive me
For taking my anger out on the elite
I just got word my brother was free
One less thing on my mental
Know he was serving the time
The conviction was not accidental
They set him up, he took the fall for it
They took it all for it
I switched up my mind
Now I'm working and biding my time
Back on the streets
Ready to change
Jump off the leash
I'm going insane
Giving my all
I'm fighting for peace
My nosey old neighbors just called the police
I lift up my hands they told me to freeze
Feeling the gravel press into my cheek
I see my neighbors high-fiving and smiling
Thinking they got me up off of they street
I gotta surprise when they close they eyes
And wake up tomorrow first thing that they see
Is little ole me having a party
Dance with the demons the sending at me
Can't fight these demons I've tried
Can't trust these thoughts in my mind
So reckless
So reckless
Can't fight these demons I've tried
Can't trust these thoughts in my mind
So reckless
So reckless
The story continues with no casualties
Although the one that they wanted was me
To tell you the truth I know why they mad
Let me just share one of my memories
Saw me perform and pass off the check
Don't see no jewelry wrapped all on my neck
I'm driving a Ford I work for the state
I'm living to give it's rare that I take
Know that they hate it, cause I'm not
One of them kids that shoot up the block
When I'm not home I'm punched on the clock
Wish that my neighbors would get off my jock
Talking reckless, feeling helpless
Just cause my life is not suited for them
Think for you say this
Might yellow tape this
Because my chances of leaving are slim
They just see the kid from the outside
Plus they only see me from the outside
All these demons that they throw will never win
Take a demon then I turn em to a friend
Can't fight these demons I've tried
Can't trust these thoughts in my mind
So reckless
So reckless
Can't fight these demons I've tried
Can't trust these thoughts in my mind
So reckless
So reckless
