Lyrics

[INTRO]
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I put my heart on the line,
But she don’t understand,
Caught up in the crime,
Take a seat, girl, let me explain,
I’m running from the shadows, dancing in the rain.

[VERSE 1]
She says, “Baby, this ain’t the life we planned,
You’re losing yourself, you gotta take my hand.”
But I’m tangled in the chaos, it’s hard to unwind,
Got these demons in my head, swimming in my mind.
Every day’s a struggle, trying to break free,
But the streets keep calling me, living recklessly,
Promises I made feel like chains in my soul,
But I swear I’ll find a way to regain control.

[CHORUS]
I put my heart on the line, she don’t like that,
Caught up in crime, can’t seem to fight back.
She wants her life back, baby, can’t you see?
Stay with me, girl, I’m begging, just believe in me.
I got a few knives to settle, still stuck in my back,
But I’m trying to rise up, trying to stay on the right track.

[VERSE 2]
Running with my brothers, we’re locked in a fight,
LMGs in our hands, ready to ignite.
But every step I take feels like a step to the grave,
I’m losing you, girl, and I’m feeling so brave,
Froggy leaping, the stakes are getting high,
But with every leap forward, I’m just too scared to fly.
I know you’re tired, babe, of the weight I carry,
But trust me, I hate me more than you know, it’s scary.

[CHORUS]
I put my heart on the line, she don’t like that,
Caught up in crime, can’t seem to fight back.
She wants her life back, baby, can’t you see?
Stay with me, girl, I’m begging, just believe in me.
I got a few knives to settle, still stuck in my back,
But I’m trying to rise up, trying to stay on the right track.

[BRIDGE]
You kick me to the curb, say I’m dead to you,
But every night I’m dreaming,
