The Town ft. Nkosi Kamal Lyrics

Every street is like an alleyway

Darker grays of the world color everything in this place

The pain, rage, it's screaming through the house paint, the cement paved, it's strange

A normal neighborhood it seems, hard to believe after

What happened to me, still I'm strolling the way

Thoughts rave, ruin the quiet, can't hear a thing, not a peep from the people around, is Anybody hear

Cold shivers, my skin quiver, I feel the fear, ironic, because I was just demonic

Was slitting throats in someone home a minute ago, now a stroll through the dark cold is Killing my soul

Blood dripping from my clothes, each step bringing me close to the end

Remember my story, it starts again and again, the clock gon tick forever, that's just how It is

Still going to walk, I choose to live

Together, just me and the quiet, all intimate with my thoughts as our kids, a family I never Meant

The thick of it I'm in, no way that I could quit, I'm weathering the winds in hope that I can Win

I know the chance slim but I'll attempt and lend my strength, while in the mix and grip not Life

The sin I'm soiled in is rich, it's now up to my neck, I got to drown or swim, take a dive

I slip behind the houses, over the fences into the woods, counting every second as it's Own blessing, I start doubting

Shouting all in my head, "I maybe won't make it out", I'm broken, I will admit

I look to the sky, I'm hooked by the lights, the stars, then went from calm to shook as a Helicopter flew by

Right through the sky, this is my time, started chasing on foot, not thinking, just got to try Going

Right Left

Right Left

Right Left

RIGHT Left

Right Left

RIGHT Left

Right Left

Left foot, right foot, left

Flying through the sky, my ticket to where I rest, my home

For you I longed, so long, I got a chance, I'm taking it man Trusting my gut and listening

Running through the mud, above the bird turns and burns fuel to advance, then it's gone With the wind

I can't see defeat, I can't, just let it be with my death around the corner, I lean on what I Need

Survival instinct take over, I let it lead, now my senses on ten, I'm taking in everything

A smell hit my nose like burning wood, it stinks, it reeks but still I seem drawn to it, I Think

Maybe it's calling to me, I follow crossing a creek, seeing smoke above the trees, I'm Running, sticks in my feet

Hearing voices, I tiptoe behind a tree, take a peek

See the whole town gathered watching a fire burn deep

You never know never know never know when

You'll only know only know only know in time

You never know never know never know when

You'll only know only know only know in time

Hey

Hey, hey buddy, hey snap out of it

Oh I'm-I'm-I'm sorry I'm sorry, my fault my fault

So, so what happened? Where did you go?

I just um

I kept running
