"Demons" lyrics

Yeah, I got so much on my mind, got me workin' out like all night
You know I gotta climb so that one day I'll be alright
Feel like I got people comin' at me, yeah from all sides
I just shut em out yeah, like my demons I got all types
I feel this pressure been buildin' it's been a minute since I dropped
Gotta carve all my intentions, give this everything I got
Gotta show 'em who I am and cut out everything I'm not
Gotta show 'em where I stand, clock's tickin', don't stop

I gotta polish the motor, man this is more than the showbiz
I gotta kill all my omens, can't let em find where my soul is
I finally cut out all the people that were tryna control it
And now I steer this ship alone, can't let em know where I'm roamin'
I'm boutta lock in, took my time now I'm back, but I been cautious

I know my demons right behind me, they been stalkin'
But I keep on fighting, yeah I got no option
I'm locked and loaded if the devil wanna walk in
I'm on a whole different level, now this is personal
The way that I been writin' all these songs, I'm getting surgical
Guns sittin around, I want my charts, they're looking vertical
And to everyone that doubted me, I won't be merciful
I know I gotta prove myself again, gotta keep my spot, gotta seal it in cement
Fightin all my demons, while I do it from the trench
It's time for me to come back for revenge

Swear there's so much in my way, I just wanna dive in
I don't wanna wait, gotta keep on climbin'
Do it 'til the grave, I'm the only one that can ever seal my fate
And I can't let nobody else try that

And all my demons dragging me lower
I'll pray that I make it out fine
And all my demons dragging me lower
But I'm still trying

I used to care how they perceivin' me
Used to wanna blow up, get my name up in the industry
But as I got closer to the spotlight, the more that I can see
I'll rather be the only one believin' me. Yeah
Because I realise this whole game fake, and it ain't about your talent
Only about how much you pay, or the method that you pay
One way or another, they're gonna try to take your soul
So I'm sayin' no thanks, no way

I'd rather be the righteous one in every move I'm makin'
Rather have integrity than tryna fill some stages
Rather have no money, but a family that I'm raisin'
Look into the mirror, proud anytime I face it

I'd rather be broke than like, fake and rich
Y'all can take the throne, I don't need fame to live
This game is filled with clones, and it's all pay to win
I feel this in my bones, it's time to make a switch

Every day, yeah I gotta keep fighting
Put my soul on my track when I'm writin'
Keep the fame, keep the clout. I don't like it
I'm in a whole different lane

Swear there's so much in my way, I just wanna dive in
I don't wanna wait, gotta keep on climbin'
Do it 'til the grave, I'm the only one that can ever seal my fate
And I can't let nobody else try that

And all my demons dragging me lower
I'll pray that I make it out fine
And all my demons dragging me lower
But I'm still trying
