"City Walls"

Square up with me, I can take your right, throw a left

Pair up with me, I'mma take you right to the chest

Warpath etched in the surface

Lines of the yellow tape, they’re moving quiet like a

Serpentine in a formation

Buddy, that’s my team, pretty impatient

Now they’re waiting on me

It might be the furthest we’ve reached

Now move it up, move it up, it’s a breach

I wonder where you are

I wanted you to show me

The way around those city walls

The way on through

I wonder where you are

I wanted you to show me

But now the night has fallen

Abandoned by the sun

Square up with me, I can come to you, tell me when

Pair up with me, I can run on you, in the end

I write a promise in pencil but my loyalty’s in pen

Use a mistake as a crooked stencil

Then we trace it back again

From the mainland to the island of violence

It was the same plan for a while, decided

To send me up and rip you out of your seat

You see, in a city with no entrance there is not a retreat

I’m wondering what you thought would happen

Who you thought I would be

Was this a side-swipe or did you picture this in a dream?

Buckle down, this is possibly the furthest we’ve reached

Now move it up, move it up, it’s a breach

I wonder where you are

I wanted you to show me

The way around those city walls

The way on through

I wonder where you are

I wanted you to show me

But now the night has fallen

Abandoned by the sun

Abandoned by the sun

My smile wraps around my head, splitting it in two

two

two

two

I don’t have a clue how I can keep the top half glued

glued

glued

glued

My smile wraps around my head, splitting it in two

two

two

two

I don’t have a clue how I can keep the top half glued

glued

glued

glued

I wonder where you are

I wanted you to show me

Entertain my

Entertain my

Entertain my

Entertain my

Entertain my

Entertain my

Entertain my

Entertain my faith

This is the last time, this is the last time

Entertain my faith

This is the last time that I try

Address my soul

Address my soul

Address my soul

Entertain my faith

This is the last time that I try
