City Lights

Lost in the city lights (3X)
Lifestyle looks appealin
But you don’t see the pain underneath it
Lost in the city lights
No longer slave to addiction
Now I’ve found faith and forgiveness
Diagnosed with a sickness my mind composing eclipses
A fire coal am equipped
With providing hope and forgiveness
A line of coke for the sniff heads
Rhymes as potent as piif is
Desire shows my conviction
I’ll buy a boat for the shipwreck
Seizin the momen defeatin eager opponents
The teens are treated as olders
As they keep it real in the photos
Sweets appeal to the jokers keys
A dream free from exposure
Even believe what they boast in
What has happened to society
Where junk TV is a daily dietary requirement
Couch potatoes see but alpha males stew beef
Stuck in a system
Tryna get it on with a loose lead
Got your wires crossed
Mind full of striking while the iron’s hot
But there’s no electricity
No connectivity to a higher power
Pints in happy hour you might just buy a barrel
Lost in the city lights
Lifestyle looks appealin
But you don’t see the pain underneath it
Lost in the city lights
No longer slave to addiction
Now I’ve been saved from the system
Lost in the city lights
Lifestyle looks appealin
But you don’t see the pain underneath it
Lost in the city lights
No longer slave to addiction
Now I’ve found faith and forgiveness
Lost in the city lights
I’ve been struggling and tryna keep my focus
Life’s been a puzzle bin troubled in my emotions
Closer to the edge
Tryna keep my balance from the ledge
Need the stamina and calibre to x
Any type of obstacle that drops in my path
Time’s of the essence I am not goin back
Face my flaws and the places I slip
Then I redo the course til the paces they shift
Gotta carry on changing
Face to the wind
Til I realise the reason I fail til I win
Shaped to a King from the clay of a pauper
Formed to a son from the fortress of orphans
From a place where my soul was in pieces
Frozen in death til the moment
He freed me
He’s the one that makes the fallen rise
Life changes when looking through the author’s eyes
Lost in the city lights
Lost in the city lights
Know I gotta let go let go Lord
I gotta find my way
Know I gotta let go let go
Now I’m at the final stage
