MACKLEMORE: SHADOW (FEAT. IRO)

[IRO]
got me straight up drinkin’ form the barrel
I;ve been losin’ hour
singin’ sad songs underneath the gallows
running from my shadow
running from my shadow

I need relief, I need some peace
but the voices , they keep talking to me
and I keep going to meeting
I pray every evening
but I can’t escape my disease
lookin’ at me
stare in the mirror
liik at the man starin’ back at you
you are your failures
you are your triumphs
you are a prophet , you are an asshole
you are the devil and you are a god
you buy a shovel and bury ait all
think you can purchase your way right out of the void
and not end up payin’ the cost?
lie to yourself, lie to them, hell

whatever helps, forgotten what’s real
you think the secrets you keep saty between you and me
but shadow’s attached to your heels, like

[IRO]
got me straight up drinkin’ from the barrel
I’ve been losin’ hours
singin’ sad songs underneath the gallows
running from my shadow
running from my shadow

I let it rain through the sunroof
I’ve been parked out by the waterfront
been going to war with myself
reading Sun Tzu, bumpin’ Tha Carter I
I;m back n day two
forgot who the target was
I thought I was over this
this isn’t what sober is
What kind of dad would hold their kids

[IRO]
got me straight up drinkin’ from the barrel
I’ve been losin’ hours
singin’ sad songs underneath the gallows
running from my shadow
running from my shadow

runnin’, I am runnin’
I can’t get away, away, away
chasin’ me down every night
and all day, and all day, and all day,
runnin’, I am runnin’
I can’t get away, away, away
chasin’ me down every night
and all day, and all day, and all day,
runnin’, I am runnin’
I can’t get away, away, away
chasin’ me down every night
and all day, and all day, and all day,
