Lyrics
It's the change that I trusted, to the dust I became
Expressing a transformation from trust to disillusionment and becoming insignificant.
I walked the line, I was rushed and restrained
Describing a challenging and conflicting experience, feeling hurried and restrained.
See the cuts in my chain , I'm becoming a slave
Noticing the impact of restrictions, feeling enslaved and losing freedom.
But I come alive, running out of time just when I come of age
Feeling rejuvenated but running out of time as maturity sets in.
Pick up the cup and the j
Picking up a cup, possibly symbolic, and adjusting to the dub (music style).
As I adjust to the dub in the base
Adapting to the bass in the music.
I double up come say what's up to the ugly angel
Meeting an unconventional figure, the "ugly angel," suggesting complex relationships.
But from this angle I'm a troublemaker
From a certain perspective, being a troublemaker or causing disruptions.
Making love while I'm in danger
Engaging in risky behavior, making love in dangerous situations.
And I've had enough of what you got away with
Expressing dissatisfaction with past actions or decisions.
Trying to be clean but you tax a bag of soap
Struggling to maintain cleanliness but facing challenges and deception.
They want me to feel the heat but left me standing in the cold
Feeling abandoned in difficult situations, experiencing betrayal.
He wanted me to cheat I found the answers in the flow
Resisting temptation, finding solutions within oneself.
And they taught me how to breathe
Learning to breathe despite adversity.
With the hands around my throat now I'm strong
Gaining strength despite external pressures.
I used to loose my mind at a time like this
Repetition of the feeling of losing control and experiencing uncertainty.
Feel like shots in the dark
-I used to loose my mind at a time like this
-It feel like shots in the dark
-I used to loose my mind at a time like this
-It feel like shots in the dark
-I used to loose my mind at a time like this
-Feel like shots in the dark
-I can't see nothing , I can't hit nothing, I get something right
Expressing difficulties in perceiving and achieving success.
On the screen I'm looking single and livin out this double
Being outwardly composed but internally conflicted.
Seeing double what, I mean is I'm in trouble
Experiencing confusion and challenges.
Try to see me in another light without the struggle
Desiring a different perspective without the struggles.
But it's such a lovely fight, I wont retreat
Acknowledging the beauty in the struggle, choosing not to retreat.
I'm fighting crime and killing demons
Engaging in a metaphorical battle against crime and inner demons.
Them the reasons I'll be up at night, writing them lies that I believe
-So I don't believe that I could die
Expressing disbelief in one's mortality.
When I'm back to my old tricks
Reverting to old behaviors and habits.
Black Moses going mad, going mad
Reference to "Black Moses" going mad, possibly a personal or cultural reference.
I used to loose my mind at a time like this
Repetition of the feeling of losing control and experiencing uncertainty.
Feel like shots in the dark

They want me to feel the heat but left me standing in the Cold

-(How the answers in the flow?)
