Cypher

Now look into my eyes tell me what you see

I've been taking over since the birth of me

I listen to this beat and all i think about is

How to make my lines sound better than the least

Look into the past, no forgiveness for sins past

Fast forward into the future, get a life fast

Leave the shadow haunting calling teasing taunting

Turn over a shoulder, get the haunted feeling

Never made amends for sins i committed

Now they everywhere the skeletons in my closet

Following me around like am a freaking demon

Kept them at bay and kept my mind sane for aeons

Now they at the door, asking for their pound of flesh

I never really cared when they put my mind to the test

I don't need no genius, figure out who's the best

Lines stand out like white on black, where's the rest

Slow or fast, I left my mind to the test

I still see them shadows lurking in the dark

Trying to draw me deeper into the dark

But they give inspiration, like I've never felt

Questions keep running amok and wild in my head

Could this be a force for good or a force of evil

Could i really be from hell?, could I be the devil?

Tell me its all in my mind and this don't sound evil

Tell me how good this is, bring another beat and i make a sequel

Oh, that's a Hollywood cliche, make a prequel

It still doesn't take away these forces I've been trying to dispel

Get the repellent but these shadows don't seem to repel

But I take a deep look within, find the light and see em shrivel

I know the music make em shrink to size of beetles

that be boring into my mind, eating a piece at a time

But they drop the fic imagination just the way i like

And they've been the inspiration to the way i rhyme

They always wanted that little inner light to shine

Though it doesn't matter, am still in my prime

They ask me how I've been and i say just fine

Get me some fine wine

Do the nae nae do a vine

They said you'll be fine

Am calling this as a sign

On top of the world, call me Optimus Prime

Get off the stage idiot cos its my time

And this is where I draw the line

Cause the shadows got that pound

And all i hear now is the beat sound

As i drop to the ground

As my back hit the sand

the game is over, do you see the hell hounds

Head down, held spellbound

T'is the end, could i be hell bound?

Call em, make a sound

Tell me this is just a dream now

Cos i cant feel a thing now

This is how it is now
