lyrics

Dark nights, surrounded by demons in plain sight
they tell me to follow them and everything will be alright.
I've been hearing them since my mom fell into the after life.
I ignore the demons and dive into the darkeness by choice
And when people hear me they'll know what I've been through just from listening to my voice.
Abandoned by everyone and everything I loved ,
I learned to fight the demons off with my own sweat and blood.
It was either being cautious with my trust or to trust none
and I can tell you the amount I trust is few
the ones who starved with me and knew that we would eat soon.
the ones that stayed with me in the dark and could see my vision illuminating the room.
I'll reach the top refusing to let the bottom be my tomb.
So many artists claim they're on another level
but theyre re hash and rebuttal , so subtle
my flow is different, listen to the difference, demons behind me in my tracks because they've followed us since we were children.

Try not to let this get lost in translation
use your imagination on the verge of suicide
but of course I would decide. I wanted more
to accepts lifes challenge and see what was in store
if these were the cards I was was dealt then fuck em
I'll surely play with the cards dealt and laugh in the face of the one
who made them. I made my own Ultimatum.

It is first when your engulfed in the darkness
that you learn what light truly is
you see what so many others take for granted.
I was a young individual looking for help
when all I really needed was to turn to myself
listen to my poetry in motion
Im not a rapper im a musician with a motive
So dont be surprised if not too many notice
theyd rather the mindless nonsense of the moment

walk with me I am no demon but I can name them all
And each can tell you how Portrey Youth just laughed them off.
