Walk Alone |
| Trapped, no shield, no sword |
| The unbeaten path got my soul so sore |
| Allured by the lust, something money can’t cure |
| The Devil want me as is, but God he want more |
| Eyes closed, eyes open, great another day, here we go |
| Like a nigga woke up late in The Truman Show |
| Living life without a care, mean pokerface |
| But I’m forced to play solitaire 'til I get up out of here |
| Move like a wanted man with a bounty on his head |
| Work alone, sleep alone, eat alone, daily bread |
| Counting 'til my fingers red, how you gon' judge a man? |
| Walking in the shoes of a man with a broken leg |
| Flame on the trail headed for the powder keg |
| Last place in the race I ain’t never led |
| Like I ain’t never bled, time to get up out of bed |
| Serving in the army of one, it’s on again |
| Walk alone, I walk alone, you know I walk all alone |
| I always been on my own |
| Ever since the day I was born |
| So I don’t mind walking alone |
| Walk alone, I walk alone, you know I walk all alone |
| I always been on my own |
| Ever since the day I was born |
| So I don’t mind walking alone |
| I’m in a chess match, I’m in a death trap |
| I’m tryna find out where the eggs in the nest at |
| I’m one blood when the sky turns jet black |
| No love in the world can correct that |
| I’m in a slow lane, I’m on my Cobain |
| I’m in the new spot tryna run a old game |
| I got a new chick, put out my old flame |
| No peace, no sleep, no love for a young beast |
| You can put me in a cage |
| You can put me in the jungle where the lion get blazed |
| There ain’t no hell like the hell I raise |
| I’d die in the bed I made 'fore I lay with a love I loathe |
| I’m a snake in the garden of bones |
| I’m a loner in a world of clones |
| I’m the piece that don’t belong, see I roam |
| Where the Reaper roam 'till they put my name on a stone |
| Walk alone, I walk alone, you know I walk all alone |
| I always been on my own |
| Ever since the day I was born |
| So I don’t mind walking alone |
| Walk alone, I walk alone, you know I walk all alone |
| I always been on my own |
| Ever since the day I was born |
| So I don’t mind walking alone |
| The longest walk I’ll probably ever be on |
| The road to perdition, guess I’m finna get my plea on |
| I pray these wings strong enough to carry me on |
| I promise every second felt as if it took an eon |
| Walking like the lost boys of Sierra Leone |
| The trail of tears what they got me like a Cherokee on |
| Between the ears something I require therapy on |
| For working to the bone like my name Robert Guillaume |
| I go above and beyond, the duty called, truly y’all |
| Even though they kind of blew me off like a booty call |
| Ask me if I’m just another mouli or a movie star |
| Forced to face the music like a graduate of Juilliard |
| Walk alone, talk alone, get my Charlie Parker on |
| Make my mark alone, shed light upon the dark alone |
| Get my sparkle on, it’s a mission I’m embarking on |
| A kamikaze in the danger zone far from home |
| Walk alone, I walk alone, you know I walk all alone |
| I always been on my own |
| Ever since the day I was born |
| So I don’t mind walking alone |
| Walk alone, I walk alone, you know I walk all alone |
| I always been on my own |
| Ever since the day I was born |
| So I don’t mind walking alone |
