Fighting Demons Lyrics

See I grew up on the block

Legend has it ever since it's been infested with cops

Remember lil bro got shot

But the bullet wasn't for him it was for his brother

And his brother let it slide even as he got older

See my little sister trynna rock with me and my crew

But I don't wanna get caught up in the things that we do

I'm just tryna keep her safe and let her know that I'm cool

Cause though I love her I don't wanna ending up in the pool

In a pool of her own blood and it be on my conscience

I don't want her getting in the middle of my nonsense

And I been trynna be the brother that she want me to be

But I been caught up in some things that I don't want her to see

I'm just trynna grind and work my way to the top

But niggas out here in the trenches trynna knock me back down

I'm posted to keep it silent ain't no kiss and tellin

No it don't get to my head, but no they still ain't my friends

Demons in my brain

My mind stay like a train

Switching through these lanes

I'm tired of playing all these games

Show me where I can do better

I stay writing these letters

I'm flying with no feathers

But our souls bind like it's tether

Think I need a minute

So I can gather up my thoughts and contemplate my feelings

I been trynna find the old me back when I was happy

When I could trust the ones that had my back and always laughing

Now I'm down on my knees, begging God for mercy, have mercy on my heart

I made mistakes but I'm repenting, I can't do this on my own

Sometimes I ask myself why I don't pick up the phone

Maybe sometimes I don't wanna talk about what I'm on

And I been walking through this life with a chip on my shoulder

And I been trynna make a way but I been getting colder

Steady reaching for the top but I'm not any closer

Walking through the storm

When it rains, it pours,

I been waiting for the rainbow that's at every corner

Hopefully my struggles disappear I no longer know her

pray I make it out the trenches and my people come with me

I was busy fighting demons and I'm stuck in my feelings

Demons in my brain

My mind stay like a train

Switching through these lanes

I'm tired of playing all these games

Show me where I can do better

I stay writing these letters

I'm flying with no feathers

But our souls bind like it's tether
