[Intro]
Late night
Red eyes
Whole block
Quiet lies
[Verse 1]
I came up where the rent late
Mama prayin’ over duct tape
Two phones buzzin’ on the lunch break
Had to turn a side road to a runway
(yeah yeah)
Face cold but my palms warm
Rain hit when the talk warm
I was countin’ on the park bench
Dreams heavy in the dark storm
[Chorus]
I got these shadows on my shoulder
Money get closer, heart get colder (colder)
Every step I take, I’m lookin’ over
Talk to the sky, hand on the holster (hand on it, yeah)
We hustle in the gray, in the gray, in the gray (in the gray)
Tryna make it out before we fade away (fade)
I got these shadows on my shoulder
But I still walk through the night like a soldier (like a soldier)
[Verse 2]
(Second voice)
You was there when the lights cut
Split crumbs from the same cut
Shared coats in the same bus
We was starvin’ on the same luck
(now we up)
You still flirt with the quick flip
I still flirt with a quick trip
One call, whole script switch
Name buzz when the smoke lift (smoke lift)
[Chorus]
I got these shadows on my shoulder
Money get closer, heart get colder (heart get cold)
Every step I take, I’m lookin’ over
Talk to the sky, hand on the holster (talk to the sky)
We hustle in the gray, in the gray, in the gray (in the gray)
Tryna make it out before we fade away (before we fade)
I got these shadows on my shoulder
But I still walk through the night like a soldier (soldier, soldier)
[Bridge]
(First voice)
If I fall, would you ride in the rain for me? (ride)
(Second voice)
If they call, would you lie, do the same for me? (same)
(Together)
We both scarred, but we still chase the same story
Same story, same story (yeah)
[Chorus]
I got these shadows on my shoulder
Money get closer, heart get colder (brr)
Every step I take, I’m lookin’ over
Talk to the sky, hand on the holster (talk to the sky)
We hustle in the gray, in the gray, in the gray (in the gray)
Tryna make it out before we fade away (fade away)
I got these shadows on my shoulder
But I still walk through the night like a soldier (like a soldier, hey)
