I'm in the trenches
I got my defenses up I
load all my weapons,
yeah I'm aimin' at everyone Famous
stars in Hollywood Every night is
dark as hell Demons always on
the prowl Lookin' for a soul
to sell But I'm a soldier,
yeah Bullets 'round my shoulder strap
If I make it out,
I'm never goin' back
Gotta feed my heart like,
ooh It's me against the dark
side, ooh
I'm payin' such a high price
Livin' in the limelight,
it's a war,
yeah But I'll fight for every
last I'd die before I quit
like, ooh It's a war,
yeah But I'll fight for every
last I'd die before I quit
like, ooh
It's a war,
it's a war
I used to be takin' this
medicine Thinkin' to myself that I'ma
get better again Bitch,
how could this be competitive When
these other rappers know that I'm
better than them?
There ain't nobody,
I'm positive That could be better
than me,
that's a negative,
friend Even the thought of me
comin' back to rap Will have
you never makin' records again But
be careful with the state that
my head is in Or you
might end up in a grave
with the skeletons It's like you're
beggin' on your knees to let
the devil in You're playin' with
fire and you'll never win You
can run but can't escape me
I want what you can't have,
baby You can try but you
won't take me alive
But I'll fight for every last
I'd die before I quit like,
ooh It's a war,
yeah But I'll fight for every
last I'd die before I quit
like, ooh It's a war,
it's a war
Gotta feed my heart like,
ooh
It's me against the dark side,
ooh I'm payin' such a high
price Livin'
in the limelight,
it's a war,
yeah
