(Verse 1) Once upon a time, I spit venom on the mic, But now I'm drowning in darkness, lost in the night. A narcissistic lyricist, a shadow of my past, Eating Cheetos on the couch, it's all fading fast.... The TV flickers, but I'm lost in my mind, Haunted by the ghosts of the rhymes I left behind. I used to be a warrior, fearless and bold, Now I'm just a broken man, with stories left untold. (Chorus) I used to be a lyricist, ruling the streets at night, But now I'm just a hollow shell, consumed by inner fright. A mortgage and a kid, chains I can't escape, Trapped in this nightmare, suffocating in my fate. (Verse 2) The echoes of my past, they're driving me insane, A constant reminder of the glory, now stained. I walk through the shadows, haunted by my sins, Wondering if redemption lies beyond where darkness begins....I used to battle demons, now they're tearing me apart,Every night I'm fighting, but I'm losing from the start. I'm drowning in regrets, in a sea of despair, A once mighty king, reduced to nothing but a prayer. (repeat Chorus) (Bridge) But maybe there's a flicker, a spark within the gloom, A chance for redemption, to rise from the tomb. I'll embrace the darkness, let it fuel my fire, And reclaim my throne, amidst the (Bridge) But maybe there's a flicker, a spark within the gloom, A chance for redemption, to rise from the tomb. I'll embrace the darkness, let it fuel my fire, And reclaim my throne, amidst the funeral pyre. (Outro) I used to be a lyricist, but I'll rise from the dust, A phoenix in the ashes, fueled by righteous lust. So watch out world, 'cause I'm coming for the crown, This darkness will be my kingdom, and I won't back down.
