Vordul Mega - Shadows (Main) lyrics

The Reavers (ft. Akir, Hasan Salaam, billy woods, Goldenchild, and Vordul Mega) - “Shadows” [Produced by Axis (AKA Axis 360)] [Samples: Frank Sinatra - "I Wished on the Moon"] [Hook: Sample from Frank Sinatra - "I Wished on the Moon"] Every night was long and gloomy Shadows gathered in the air [Verse 1: Akir] Yeah Every night, I tried to write about the urban plight Trying to highlight moments to shine bright. “We'll be aight” Cops sliding by, trying to get some guy Crooked. Seen in it his eyes. Another n***a took it Pocketbooks shorter to cook. Coming back to books Shorties laughing on the corner ‘cause that n***a's shook [Verse 2: Hasan Salaam] Another song from the lord every time I tune up My vocals cords and press Pro Tools and record Every night, I tally up the abacus. Broke as f** With a wallet full of callouses paying for life's challenges Hear the screams of the seeds, mothers waiting For Maury to tell ‘em who the daddy is. Sadly, it's Getting tougher to love life, so we getting raised To find a way to pocket sunlight until it's done right [Verse 3: billy woods] Every night, corners tight under lamplight, soft white Hand-to-hand flight, dreaming pipes, fiends in satellites He really writes on the handlebars If traffic bright, exploding cars, holding stolen Stars for light. Every night, clutching mics Folding swollen bars, shrapnel shards [?] [Hook: Sample from Frank Sinatra - "I Wished on the Moon"] (x2) Every night was long and gloomy Shadows gathered in the air [Verse 4: Akir] They Clap at a f*ggot with a automatic, blast and leave [?] it's magic and it tragic n***as catching never flashing. Then they ma**ive And making a craft is fast, pa**ing the evening hours Cowards get devoured—even n***as stuck on powder Got to know some overpowered, claiming that they doubt it [Verse 5: Goldenchild] Every night is another chance, last dance With the Devil. One foot in the grave, holding the shovel Soldier for trouble. [?] clever levels To maintain obedience, n***as is greedy once Four cord-rockers. Turn our d**h into profits [?] we ever stopping, keeping this war popping Feed it to us watching. When will we ever stop it? We got to, yo, we got to stand up And just let them know exactly how We gots to go. We gots the shows. We gots to blow [Hook: Sample from Frank Sinatra - "I Wished on the Moon"] (x2) Every night was long and gloomy Shadows gathered in the air [Verse 6: Vordul Mega] Can't even look. Every night, you wait Sometimes dream we could be away from all the stress Still, we ahead, smoking weed Lead leaves lead to escapes. [?] [?], heads Rolling, chasing big faces. Natural- -born writers vandalize to express We need papers and high wages. Mixed Messages in sky pages to textiles And amarettos for old boroughs that got A billy with the TEC out [Verse 7: billy woods] Every night, open season Telescopic sight. Anything breathing I'm seeing I'm squeezing strong. High treason bust the law Snipe, take off an arm. Eagles nest calm, hype d**h in the palm, rocking the charm, blunts Ripe, serenaded by car alarms, siren songs [Hook: Sample from Frank Sinatra - "I Wished on the Moon"] Every night was long and gloomy Shadows gathered in the air [Verse 8: billy woods] Cannibals bite bombs, devils spawn laws Boys man-strong. White noise, blackened forearms Horus whirlwinds in the eye of the storm Unfurling black flags on your lawn, gunpowder warm Cold fusion burn like Vietnam Every night, blazing the traum, blazing the traum Terror Firma
