[Verse 1: Daddyphatsnaps]
You lurking in the dark, huh? Well, I was born in it, molded by it
And life hits hard and many can't see any light through the bulging eyelids
Things used to be so easy, then you grow up and the smoke, it rises?
When the hope it dies, it all goes left where the road and the fork collides
Hell go wherever I've been, always felt the dark on the inside plotting my end
You think that I wear a mask, but that mask that I wear is the one of my skin
Maybe if I had another lifetimе I could repay every onе of my sins
Well, I don't have the time, so maybe I just work on my death, ah
Demon in the shadows, yeah, I got it like that
Gotta run it run it now they on the right track
Haters try to run it, then they run it right back
Think they keeping up, but they ain't on the right lap
What they don't see is magnified to me
Think that they doing something, it's the saddest sight to see
The world doesn't need order, what that world needs to see
It's the bat inside the beam

[Chorus: GoldenEMP]
Don't fear what you can't change
Trapped inside my hate
I'm falling, but I feel calm
Found my way, the city that lost it, DNA got me feeling like Gotham
Ooh yeah, I guess I'm healing from the scars
Ooh yeah, do you feel safe inside the dark
Ooh yeah, there's only rage inside my heart
Ooh yeah, I guess I'm fighting in the dark
[Verse 2: Daddyphatsnaps]
I just keep running and running, the punches they land
But the feeling is numbing, I'm crying for help
I just want to feel something, I bury myself
So I don't have to look in the mirror and look at the man
I'm becoming, I'm closer to them
And the people I bump in I think how they do, so I know how to hunt them
I see them in me and I hate that I love it
I hate that I love it, I hate that I love it
And vengeance is wrong when I tense at the subject
My hand makes a fist and I vent and I bludgeon
Not swinging at them, man, I swing for my mother
I swing for my father and those who would touch him
I swing, so your dad, makes it home for your supper
I pray they get old and you tell them you love them
And that's why I fight in the darkest of dungeons
It's home to me
Stay down with the slums where the soldiers be
I be sending take downs like I own the beat
Feel the anticipation, no home, but I own these streets
All it costs was my soul to sow these seeds
Shove the pain deep down, yeah, woes is me
If my dad saw me now would he even know it's me?
Damn, would he even notice me?

[Chorus: GoldenEMP]
Don't fear what you can't change
Trapped inside my hate
I'm falling, but I feel calm
Found my way, the city that lost it, DNA got me feeling like Gotham
Ooh yeah, I guess I'm healing from the scars
Ooh yeah, do you feel safe inside the dark
Ooh yeah, there's only rage inside my heart
Ooh yeah, I guess I'm fighting in the dark
