Lost
Expressing a state of being lost, perhaps emotionally or spiritually.
Tell me what's the cost

But my soul's not for sale

I've got to post my mind up for bail
Indicating a need to secure mental freedom by metaphorically posting the mind for bail.
Enslaved in this hell, I'm
Feeling trapped or constrained in a difficult situation or mindset.
Running

But these demons close to my trail
Facing inner struggles represented by demons that are close and threatening.
Screaming out to YAH do you have my back
Calling out to YAH (God) for support and protection.
Screaming out to YAH do you have my back
-Cuz I
Transitioning into a realization or acknowledgment.
I'm coming down off my high

And no that faith I ain't had in a long, long time

-I

This ain’t a verse it’s a prayer

Lord I know my heart ain’t pure, but
Acknowledging impurity of heart but expressing a commitment to seeking a cure.
At least I’m looking for the cure, I’ve
-Opened my eyes for the first time
Opening one's eyes to truth, acknowledging the presence of lies.
See the molten looking glass through the cloudy sky

-I’m corrupt in your image and I apologize
Recognizing corruption in the image of a higher power and apologizing for it.
Born in the valley, I show no fear
Being fearless in facing challenges in the valley but avoiding certain dangers.
There's eagles in the desert but I don’t go there
-I ain’t scared of that long night
Fearing the journey more than the darkness of the night.
I’m scared of traveling in search of the wrong light
