Fightin’ the Force - K Rino

I wrestle with a force in the nighttime

I felt like I was slipping out my right mind

An image that I couldn’t seem to wipe out

He’s waiting every time I turn the lights out

Constantly attacking while I’m sleeping and he won’t rest

I’m paralyzed, trapped inside my own flesh

Tryna think of something I can do to make him slow down

I’m screaming but my mouth is making no sound

Maybe if I calm down, I can try to break free

I know it’s over if I let him take me

Suspended animation and I couldn’t even stand up

My wrists stuck together like I’m handcuffed

Begging for the morning, it’s the only time that I’m free

His presence automatically would blind me

Panicking and nervous, got me shaking and it’s no lie

And the crazy part is I don’t even know why

I’m afraid to go to sleep with forces hanging over me

I’m swinging ‘bows and wrestling while in my mind I’m questioning why

Who is this guy?

Coming every night?

Making me fight?

If I don’t make it out of this, I will sink

I couldn’t say a word but I could still blink

Had to find a reason to get out of his control soon

A dark shadow covered up the whole room

Then it flew down from the ceiling and the bed dropped

It put me in a full nelson headlock

Tried to fight it back but I didn’t last too long

I couldn’t get away ‘cause it was too strong

Then he lifted me and threw me up against a stone wall

I’m wishin' I could yell or make a phone call

Tryna think it out and tryin' not to make a wrong move

That’s when I heard a deep voice say, «I own you»

Couldn’t deal with the punishment I was absorbing, the external and internal

torment

Wonder if I’ll ever make it back to a calm state

‘cause it’s been happenin' every night for ‘bout a month straight

I’m afraid to go to sleep with forces hanging over me

I’m swinging ‘bows and wrestling while in my mind I’m questioning why

Who is this guy?

Coming every night?

Making me fight?

The next night, I was tryna clear my mind out

I came up with an idea to find out what was terrorizing me and causing all

these head wounds

I put a video recorder in my bedroom

Felt myself gettin' sleepy so I took my clothes off

Then I hit record right before I dozed off

Fought through the night again 'til I felt the sunrise

But this time I’ma see him with my own eyes

I was real anxious when I woke up the next day

I picked up the recorder and I pressed play

Couldn’t wait to see the entity when it rose up

I watched about an hour then it showed up

Now I get to finally see who could this brother be

He picked the pillow up and tried to smother me

Fought my way out and took a breath for recovery

He looked in the camera, that’s when I saw it was another me

All of these nights I been fighting in this hell-house

It was me against me tryna take myself out

Why was this evil clone here?

What’s he gonna do?

Then a voice in my head said, «The evil one is you

I’m the righteous side of you, you chose to go a lower route

So I come every night to fight your wickedness and choke it out

If you want me to unlock the greatness, I’d be glad to

I just need you to submit and let me kill the bad you»

I’m afraid to go to sleep with forces hanging over me

I’m swinging ‘bows and wrestling while in my mind I’m questioning why

Who is this guy?

Coming every night?

Making me fight?
