[Female Chorus] I am balancing on a razor's edge tonight This world is growing colder, can you feel the plight? Heavy burdens on my shoulders, but I walk the line Forgive my sins and errors, I'm just trying to find a sign When the storm is raging, I will hold my head up high They try to break my spirit, but I'm reaching for the sky That’s what you always told me, echoing so clear... That I am way much stronger than the things I fear. [Aggressive Male Rap Verse 1] Staring out the window, streets are empty and gray Thinking 'bout the brothers that the streets took away Life is moving fast but my soul is stuck tight They see the flashing lights, they don't see the midnight fight People talk behind my back, yeah they judging my pain But they never walked a mile through this pouring rain Sometimes I wanna lock the door and just disappear Sit inside the silence where the ghosts are too near But I cannot back down, made a promise to the sky Even when the road is steep and the well is running dry. [ Female Chorus] I am balancing on a razor's edge tonight This world is growing colder, can you feel the plight? Heavy burdens on my shoulders, but I walk the line Forgive my sins and errors, I'm just trying to find a sign When the storm is raging, I will hold my head up high They try to break my spirit, but I'm reaching for the sky That’s what you always told me, echoing so clear... That I am way much stronger than the things I fear. [Aggressive Male Rap Verse 2] Got a chill down my spine when I look at the past From the concrete jungle where you gotta move fast Put a smile on my face, acting like I'm okay But this heavy heart of stone is just dragging me away Sending prayers to the mothers who are missing a son 'Cause the truth really hurts when the damage is done But I hope that you see it, yeah I hope that you know That I carry your flame everywhere that I go. [Epic Bridge] [The Female takes over completely, rising in intensity and emotion] Oh, I carry your flame! Through the shadow and the rain! I am stronger! Yeah, I am stronger! [ Female Chorus] I am balancing on a razor's edge tonight This world is growing colder, can you feel the plight? Heavy burdens on my shoulders, but I walk the line Forgive my sins and errors, I'm just trying to find a sign When the storm is raging, I will hold my head up high They try to break my spirit, but I'm reaching for the sky That’s what you always told me, echoing so clear... That I am way much stronger than the things I fear. [Outro] [The beat drops out, leaving only the piano and a soft choir fading] Stronger than I fear... Still holding on... Yeah, I walk the line... [End]
