Escape Velocity

[Verse 1] Ready for the war, I step outside the line Voices in my mind, but I never let 'em bind Shadow in the distance, keeping secrets from the dawn Danger in the silence, but I gotta keep on Pressure building in my veins, I ignite the spark Swinging through the chaos, pushing back against the dark Eyes inside the alley always telling me to run But I'm stronger under fire, that's when my work is done Dark figures in my city, and they're creeping when I walk Hearts pounding in the silence every time I hear 'em stalk Never falling victim to illusions in the mist I fight for resistance with a vision with a twist [Chorus] We keep fighting every night Shadows closing in with all their might No surrender, stand and defy All these dangers fill the sky [Verse 2] All these monsters in my mind try to make me break But I blaze another path, burning everything fake Echoes in the alley, jealous devils on the prowl They forget my legacy is never letting go Crimson in my vision, see the battle in the rain Every time they try to trip me, I dismantle every chain Never close my eyes to the violence in the night I stand up for my people and I stand up for the fight [Chorus] We keep fighting every night Shadows closing in with all their might No surrender, stand and defy All these dangers fill the sky [Verse 3 – Psychological] Labyrinth inside me, every mirror starts to crack Voices whisper secrets, tryna drag me to the black Shadows of my failures tryna carve into my skin But I weaponize the trauma, turn the pain into my kin Every scar’s a scripture, every wound a revelation Twisting through the madness like a sinner’s meditation Can’t escape the demons ‘cause they live inside my skull But I cage ‘em with the rhythm ‘til the silence turns to null I’m the nightmare that they bred, the chaos they designed And I flipped it on the system, made the terror all mine [Bridge – Violent] Rip the mask off the beast, let the fangs show raw Take the claws to the neck, hear the night jaws gnaw Stomp the monsters in the dirt ‘til the bones all break No retreat, no mercy, I decide their fate Blood on the pavement, rain in my eyes Every devil that I crush is another that dies I was born for the hunt, for the slaughter, for the war Kick the gates off hell, then I’m knocking down the door! [Instrumental] [Haunted Piano solo] [Haunted music] [Chorus – w/ Ad-libs] We keep fighting every night (fight on, fight on!) Shadows closing in with all their might (all their might!) No surrender, stand and defy (stand tall, defy!) All these dangers fill the sky (fill the sky, fill the sky!) We keep fighting every night (never back down!) Shadows closing in with all their might (come get it!) No surrender, stand and defy (stand tall, survive!) All these dangers fill the sky (sky, sky, sky!) [Instrumental] [Haunted Piano playing] We keep fighting every night (never back down!) Shadows closing in with all their might (come get it!) No surrender, stand and defy (stand tall, survive!) All these dangers fill the sky (sky, sky, sky!) [End]
