Lyrics

Song Title: "Court of Shadows"
(Chorus: Female Vocalist)
I’m breaking free, can’t you see?
No more chains, just the real me,
In the court of shadows, I’ll find my way,
Through the pain, I’ll seize the day.
(Verse 1)
Lost in the haze, drowning deep in the night,
Chasing that high, I was losing the fight,
From the corner deals to the darkest of nights,
Thought I was winning, but I lost all my sights.
Dealing in the shadows, I thought I was slick,
But the game turned cold, like a knife in the thick,
Possession of firearms, felt like a king,
But every bullet I carried made my heart sting.
Had a crew on the block, we were running the show,
But loyalty’s a myth when you’re chasing the dough,
Friends turned to foes, all for a quick hit,
In this life of crime, I was lost in the grit.
(Chorus: Female Vocalist)
I’m breaking free, can’t you see?
No more chains, just the real me,
In the court of shadows, I’ll find my way,
Through the pain, I’ll seize the day.
(Verse 2 - Fast Bars)
Yeah, sitting in the courtroom, my life on display,
Facing charges stacked high, can’t run away,
Trafficking weight, like a ghost in the night,
Thought I was invincible, but I lost all my might.
Kidnapping whispers, blackmail in the air,
Had my hands dirty, but I didn’t care,
Used to think I was untouchable, living that thrill,
But reality hit hard, now I’m facing the chill.
Firing off rounds, caught up in the scheme,
Now I’m staring at the judge, living a broken dream,
Every plea and every tear, drowning in regret,
In this life of crime, I placed all my bets.
(Chorus: Female Vocalist)
I’m breaking free, can’t you see?
No more chains, just the real me,
In the court of shadows, I’ll find my way,
Through the pain, I’ll seize the day.
(Verse 3)
Had the world in my hands, but I dropped it all,
When the sirens blared, man, I knew I’d take the fall,
Lost my license, lost my pride, lost my way,
Thought I could outrun the darkness every day.
But the streets are cruel, they don’t play fair,
Every deal I made came with a weight to bear,
Women used and abused, yeah, I played the fool,
But the lessons I learned, man, they broke every rule.
Sitting in the cell, I’m haunted by the past,
Reflecting on my choices, wondering how long it’ll last,
Fighting through the darkness, searching for the light,
In this life of crime, gotta learn to ignite.
(Chorus: Female Vocalist)
I’m breaking free, can’t you see?
No more chains, just the real me,
In the court of shadows, I’ll find my way,
Through the pain, I’ll seize the day.
(Outro)
So if you’re lost in the struggle, know you’re not alone,
You can rise from the depths, find a place to call home,
In this court of shadows, we’ll fight for the dream,
Together we’ll break through, and reclaim our esteem.
