Shadows in the Alley

[Verse] I walk through the smoke where the streetlights cry Whispers in the dark where the lost souls lie A city of shadows where dreams go to die But I keep on moving I can't ask why [Prechorus] The moon hangs low A silent guide In the alley of doubt where truths collide [Chorus] Shadows in the alley Chasing me down Trying to steal my crown Trying to make me drown But I keep my faith Through the night I rise Living in the struggle Where the soul survives [Verse 2] Every step’s a gamble The dice don’t play fair The echoes of the past They linger in the air A preacher on the corner says hope’s still there But the weight on my chest Man It’s hard to bear [Prechorus] The stars look on They don’t intervene Watching over a world caught in between [Chorus] Shadows in the alley Chasing me down Trying to steal my crown Trying to make me drown But I keep my faith Through the night I rise Living in the struggle Where the soul survives
