Shadow by EXPSR Lyrics
/intro/
Lets start with a toast and a prayer for you
Get lost in the words that i say to you
May the god of your choice have its way right now
So remorse on your soul doesnt weigh on you
/hook/
Dont say you real
Dont say you will
Have to cut that talk
And save you from me
Im not who i used to be
I just try to keep you out of my shadow
Every single little game its a battle
Coloured in a dark shade like the matter
And i know why
/verse/
Always run into a wall
When i think i got it
Have to distance myself
So im looking heartless
Never feel like its enough
But i try my hardest
Tend to come off too blunt
Least im being honest
But we keep keep dreaming
Weve been going in circles
Like on a repeat listen
Insecurities we share
But they eat me different
Lately ive been making changes
I could see it shifting now
See it different now
Same thing different now
No more flipping now
No strings im living now
You can tell that brothers they know
That i saved myself a couple problems ago
I dropped what was using me
Now im talking truthfully
Now i am, not soon to be
Im playing the field
/hook/
Dont say you real
Dont say you will
Have to cut that talk
And save you from me
Im not who i used to be
I just try to keep you out of my shadow
Every single little game its a battle
Coloured in a dark shade like the matter
And i know why
/bridge/
Nowadays for a second i should think
Before i make decisions, before i make a sin
Gotta check it right before i let it in
I gotta scout it, if its wrong, im not doing it again, no
Many fishes but im only going swimming
With excuses that i need some independence
Honestly though i just wanna see me winning
And if i said it, i will do it - thats a given, yeah yeah
/hook/
Dont say you real
Dont say you will
Have to cut that talk
And save you from me
Im not who i used to be
I just try to keep you out of my shadow
Every single little game its a battle
Coloured in a dark shade like the matter
And i know why
Lets start with a toast and a prayer for you
Get lost in the words that i say to you
May the god of your choice have its way right now
So remorse on your soul doesnt weigh on you
/hook/
Dont say you real
Dont say you will
Have to cut that talk
And save you from me
Im not who i used to be
I just try to keep you out of my shadow
Every single little game its a battle
Coloured in a dark shade like the matter
And i know why
