Inferno by Eskafell Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was drifting, sedated
Sailing through smoke
Tried to speak with my hands round my throat
Choking by my own volition
Bad decisions I committed to
To try and hold position
I came crashing through like a wave on the rocks
Jaded, a little mix in my cup
Spacing, always chasing the Sun
A cocktail of lies, feeling numb
Caught up tryna be like all the other older kids
Self-medicate to escape
Until it fades away
And I'm just lying there awake
The future's feeling grey
Destined for a life of insignificance
It's all falling apart
Criminal music stole my heart
Criminal music steel my heart
[Chorus]
Eden must wait
My visions are permeated by shadow
Fading, I'm chasing but cautious to tackle
Keep running 'cause if I stop then what happens?
(I will haunt you)
Fear of the unknown
(I will)
Wants to stifle my soul
[Verse 2]
Don't drown but I only swim deep end
Jaws in the water, I'm feeding
But only when the meat's fresh
I stay locked in from morning til evening
Writing til the walls start speaking
Didn't pop shit but I feel like I'm peaking
Leaving me sleepless
Remind me - what's a weekend?
Regarde-moi dans les yeux, mon frère
Et dis-moi ce que tu vois
Comme Moscou j'connais le froid
Eska fell but the game's not up
Despite the pain in my feet
I stay running this beautiful machine at full speed
Blessed with this freedom I step with a spring
Refreshed by the stream's honest sting
This music made me who I am today
Gave me a canvas for painting my pain and frustrations
And laid the foundation for my road to salvation
After the original sin
Shame was my burden
Cast out and cursed
I vowed to return
But I learned the reward's on the journey
Lost and alone in the forest dark
The way back to the garden's no walk in the park
Tryna be perfect I realised I can't
The creator's always gonna see the flaws in their art
But now I've found peace, no more arks
J'suis dans ma zone
T'avais raison
Je t'aime à mort
Je t'aime à la folie
J'sais que j'suis fou
J'en ai rien à foutre
J'vais faire kamikaze comme un bolide
Life's a game to me
And I only play hard like Nadal
Train like a Spartan to tear 'em apart
I put my heart in the name and for what?
D'you think Nirvana heights would change my life?
D'you think I'd pack my bags and leave it all behind?
Don't underestimate my pride, I overstand the hype
My name proclaimed in lights 'cause people feel my vibe
Won't send me blind
I see the world through different eyes
Regret made me see the only enemy's me
Humbled myself on my knees
I looked to skies for a sign
Not willing to blemish that image I'd written of mine
Now I put ego aside, think outside my mind
Observing the world that I find
Evil runs rampant
Don't let it dampen your warrior spirit
I'm not tryna hear it
Walk into the storm, I don't fear it
Shield and Sheffield on my back
Carry it all, I don't crack
[Chorus]
Eden must wait
My visions are permeated by shadow
Redemption for sins I won't find in a chapel
Keep running 'cause if I stop then what happens?
Fear of the unknown
Been tryna stifle my soul
(Tryna stifle my soul)
Hunter or hunted?
I play Snow White and the Huntsman
I was drifting, sedated
Sailing through smoke
Tried to speak with my hands round my throat
Choking by my own volition
Bad decisions I committed to
To try and hold position
I came crashing through like a wave on the rocks
Jaded, a little mix in my cup
Spacing, always chasing the Sun
A cocktail of lies, feeling numb
Caught up tryna be like all the other older kids
Self-medicate to escape
Until it fades away
And I'm just lying there awake
The future's feeling grey
Destined for a life of insignificance
It's all falling apart
Criminal music stole my heart
Criminal music steel my heart
[Chorus]
Eden must wait
My visions are permeated by shadow
Fading, I'm chasing but cautious to tackle
Keep running 'cause if I stop then what happens?
