Back from black
No fiend could drag me back
Life's like a round of blackjack
More cash, more room for drawbacks
Most cats chase plaques
I'm just backpacking on the race track
Man on a mission with no map
Dying to live like Kodak
Flashbacks of lilac flats and lost past
Ain't had a blast like Bush
Please don't clap
Barren playgrounds
Urban wastelands
Battling goliaths in the quicksand with a phony wolf pack
Something changed
Aged a decade or eight in a day
From a child to a soldier mind
Seeing shades of love and hate collide
I cried on the sly
Ain't know how to dry those tears inside
Just kept it wild

Don't be fooled by the pale skin
I could rap circles around most of these people and um
This ain't even my first language so
No excuses

Learn from my mishaps
This music path's full of beartraps
A contract could be a death cap
Hold on to your hat
You need a slap
You'll find a crapton of cap
Red flags painted lilac
It's been that since the dawn of rap
Don't nobody care about you, no
Glitz and glamour faked for a day
It's a mirage
It's all a game
The predators disguised as prey
Waving and smiling
Gun out of frame
Watch your step
Watch your words
If you nap they might grab your purse
You're not the last
You're not the first
It's a free-for-all like in The Purge

You arrive in the wide world with all that blinding innocence like a blooming rose
Lilac dreams
Pitch-black reality
It turns you cold
You witness the selfishness
You step into the traps
You stop trusting strangers
You turn numb to survive
You build up that magnificently resilient stronghold with moats, gates and all but
You forget to invite anyone else in
So you sit in its dark hallways all alone never daring to step outside
Your castle has become your prison
