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 |
