The Road - Shahmen

Tonight is long enough for us to dream twice

But I ain't catching no Z's, sing while I swing dice

There is a bet in every minute

This is what I sound like winning...

This is the Road between me and myself

Driving blindfolded down the highway of my hell

Standing on my own two, and I know my shit stank

Part of me everywhere, everywhere the kid paints

Hear me like a mural that be calling out your nickname

Never had no reason, like we grown in the first place

Even though I'm still blind, I can just feel mine

The ladder gone grow and I'm tired, but I still climb

Poet and a prisoner, watch us both feel time

Hear the hollow in my headphones wake me up

Start the search for mine, and a sky that will pick me up

My name's Fire, I am a friend of Dust

I am tying all the ends that touch

Now get down with it

You and I are same, but I belong here

Sense's turn to sleep, now I'm lost in the chair

And I don't want to search, I just want to find

And I don't want to work, I should've chose the life of crime

Villain on his own grind, living in a goldmine

Damn, this a good world, studio is all mine

Now, I see where I sit is the throne

From the shit from up which we've grown

I am built for the worth we're owed

To the dirt where the earthly go

Ain't no earthly soul

Now, I see where I sit is the throne

From the shit from up which we've grown

I am built for the worth we're owed

To the dirt where the earthly go

Ain't no earthly soul

Or maybe I'm tripping, I don't really know

Maybe I'm slipping, blood up in my bones

The marrow of my mission, not bundles of dough

But breaking out of prison, this prison of my own

This is the Road between me and myself

Streets indigo with a glow that will make your eyes melt
