Roaring Shadows

[Verse] Smoke curls from a cigarette, ghosts in the air Gin pours in the backroom, danger everywhere Velvet curtains, secrets whispered, deals unfold Jazz band croons, but the night feels cold Fast life, dice roll, table's too hot to hold Pocket watches ticking, time slips, stories untold Streetlights flicker, shadows dance, moonlit gold Hunger for the rush, but the soul feels sold [Chorus] Fast living, hard sinning, can't slow the ride Dancing with the devil, but the thrill won't hide Fast living, hard sinning, nights collide One step from the edge, but I’m still outside [Verse 2] Top hats, flappers, and a crimson tide Champagne spills while ambitions collide Whispers of the mob, deals inked in blood A violin cries, like it's drowning in the flood Card tricks, quick flips, smiles hiding lies Street kings, gold rings, power multiplies A violin sobs, a trumpet defies A life built on the edge, but the heart denies [Bridge] Cogs in the clock, the city's gears grind Everyone’s chasing, everyone’s blind Feathers in their caps, lies intertwine Tomorrow ain't promised, it’s all by design
