Clarity/Street Lights Lyrics

Street lights, another city night

Strapped tight, tryna keep my sanity tonight

I'm overcome by suicidal tendencies

I Been searching but ain't got no friend in me

The devil and god rage inside my mind

It feels so familiar, like I've said these lines

Watching my life slip away as the sun rises

Could have walked another path but chose my vices

And I know that I'm the one to blame

Was I meant to carry this shame

I'll bear the burden if it relieves the pain

The hurt, the lies, all done in my name

I just wanna know if I was cursed from birth

Destined to fail, to rot in this earth

Maybe I sound dramatic, a little theatric

But feel like I'm in a matrix, if I can just crack it

Street lights, another city night

Strapped tight, tryna keep my sanity tonight

I'm overcome by suicidal tendencies

I Been searching but I ain't got no friend in me

The devil and god rage inside my mind

It feels so familiar, like I've said these lines

Watching my life slip away as the sun rises

Could have walked another path but chose my vices

Or they chose me, cause it's written in the family tree

A couple generations of broken men

Now I have a chance to bring it to an end

I'm breaking cycles of trauma, a new life begins

There's so much on the line, but I'm running low on time

Too many to let down, straighten up your spine

I do this for me, and for my nieces and nephews

Just Remember, nobody got your back, except you

Street lights, another city night

Strapped tight, tryna keep my sanity tonight

I'm overcome by suicidal tendencies

I Been searching but ain't got no friend in me

The devil and god rage inside my mind

It feels so familiar, like I've said these lines

Watching my life slip away as the sun rises

Could have walked another path but chose my vices

God tell me this isn't the end

Is this where I pay for my sins
