SHADOW BOXING - TIF

Do you see me? Do you see what I've become? I'm not the same beast I leave a scar on all I touch You think you know me now Is it better than I know myself? I know it hurts like hell Admitting just how you've misjudged All my life I've been told the same old Don't step out, don't test the mould We know your kind, yeah, we know you So much better than you know yourself See, the ones that won't engage me Are the same trying to cage me But I can't sit still, and I won't be tame When the lights go out, better know your enemy 'Cause I've spent a lifetime shadowboxing with death And we'll dance with the Devil till there's no songs left So do you see me? Do you see what I've become? I'm not the same beast, no I leave a scar on all I touch You think you know me now Is it better than I know myself? I know it hurts like hell Admitting just how you've misjudged You don't know me, you cannot own me The path I'm on don't fit the old me I bare my soul as I keep evolving And I chase this taste for blood See, I learned real young, don't seek no gold Trust no fool, and you won't get sold I never feared the dark, no, I just became it When the lights go dead, you better pray you're safe, kid 'Cause I've spent a lifetime shadowboxing with death And we'll dance with the Devil till there's no songs left I try to keep my cool and not let this hate win I find this mask I wear can't keep the darkness in The world you know was born to fade We'll dance upon its grave You don't know me, you cannot hold me You should've guessed that you can't control me I raise my soul like a private army And I steel myself for war 'Cause I learned real young when you walk through hell The Devil can't buy what you won't sell So I took my fear, reshaped and aimed 'Cause when the night caves in (No one will save you) So we'll dance with the devil till there's no songs left I try to keep my cool and not let this hate win I find this mask I wear can't keep the darkness in This mask I wear can't keep the darkness in
