The light is killed by darkness
That's the world we live in, man there ain't no way around it
Every time that you want to go and climb a mountain
There is always something that wants to push you down it
The grass is always greener on the other side
Yet how would I know I ain't even tried
I just lay low and live my life
Then again I'm just really trying to get by
There's one girl that's on my mind
But she taken, I'm sure he's a great guy
Always tell her that I'm feeling just fine
Wish I could say, I want to make her mine
I just wish I had the balls to tell her that she is the girl of my dreams
She is my sliver of light, but the darkness it is acting a fiend
It's about time I stand up for myself and break it's control of me
Time I break out of my shell and hold it up for the world to see
I hate going to parties, I hate drinking and smoking
I like eating a little too much, but I suck-in so you never notice
I say I'm half and half, but I'm way more white than I am black
There goes all my insecurities, now there's nothing that is holding me back
The light is killed by darkness
That's the world we live in, man there ain't no way around it
Every time that you want to go and climb a mountain
There is always something that wants to push you down it
The light is killed by darkness
That's the world we live in, man there ain't no way around it
Every time that you want to go and climb a mountain
There is always something that wants to push you down it
Yeah, EK, yo
My Heads been a mess
And I'm thinking of taking the meds
For the pain that's inside of chest
Man, Cause and effect
I push away people I love
And I see everyone as a threat
If I let you inside of my life
Will you leave like the rest
Of the people who told me they'd always be here
For me
And not for my music career
And the benefits
Dog I've been at this for years
In the Basement
Ain't nobody thought I could do this
My family and friends really thought I was stupid
The movement was made in my room while being Secluded
I don't like parties and bulls**t
I don't like drama
You mess with the kid you get you split like piñatas
I put that s**t right on God and my momma
Woah
Got a few plays
And my heart turned cold
508 really don't feel like home
Am I losing my mind
Or just losing control
Of my thoughts
Somebody show me the remedy
To be honest I'm lost
Up at the plate with bat
Swinging right for the fence when it's nothing but dark, yeah
The light is killed by darkness
That's the world we live in, man there ain't no way around it
Every time that you want to go and climb a mountain
There is always something that wants to push you down it
The light is killed by darkness
That's the world we live in, man there ain't no way around it
Every time that you want to go and climb a mountain
There is always something that wants to push you down it
The light will kill darkness
That's the world we live in, man there ain't no way to drown it
Every time that you want to go and climb a mountain
Use the light and you will always find a way around it
