lyrics

Verse 1:
Forgive me Lord (Forgive me Lord)
I've sinned again (sinned again)
I lost my faith (lost my faith)
I lost my friends (lost my friends
I lost myself, but worse of all I lost you (lost you)
I lost my conscious, I lost it all, and I lost the truth
I know that things won't be the same
But I made a choice to come play at this game
Only thing I wanted to make a name
and to bring some change,
but i became the same (became the same)
Like the ones I know (ones I know)
No place to go (place to go)
The night is cold, victim of myself, my biggest foe (biggest foe)

Chorus 1:
You walk by but you don’t see me
Slow motion and so gracefully
Be my friend and I’ll show you around
I’m in love with someone out of town
Who is this:

Verse 2:
Who are you, (who are you)
Who is me? (who is me)
The mirror is clear (The mirror is clear)
But I still can't see (But I still can't see)
Reflection's faded (Reflection's faded)
A memory (A memory)
So I ask myself (So i ask myself)
Who is me? (who is me?)

What did I do? What have I become?
How much further must I be gone
Fighting with myself, let me grab the gun
Fight club status, Paulson
Should I seek forgiveness from my loved ones?
Or should I keep going?
Take all the prostitutes I know, and tell em all to blow me
I'll tell you to fuck off, cause you don't fucking know me!
I don't even know myself, I'm the furthest thing from a poet
Rap is art (Rap is art)
But music business isn't
To succeed I'll sell my soul, But i know I'll lose forgiveness
Damn (damn)

Chorus 2:
Who is this stranger
I should be scared, could be dangerous
I should prepare for this
I wish I didn’t fall so hard for you

Bridge:
I'm just a stranger to myself
about the music
not about the wealth
I was so broke
Stuck in a spell
Got me to blame,
Nobody else

Verse 3:
Can't recognize myself when I look at him in the mirror
I thought that making music, would help me see things more clearer
But i still can't see it, still seems blurry,
feels like I'm dead, six feet buried
Such an occurrence, obsessed about currency, while currently cursing everything that burns in me.

Back in the day (Back in the day)
When I used to care (used to care)
When I burned with hope (burned with hope)
My Brother was there (Brother was there)
When I knew what I was doing (I knew what I was doing)
Didn't feel so scarred (Feel so scarred)
And I had no worries (had no worries)
And I had all my hair (had all my hair)
Feel so lost, feel so lost
I'm so afraid (so afraid)
I know I'm Edu (I know I'm Edu)
But what's my name? (what's my name?)
What makes a name, (makes a name)
What makes a person? (Makes a person)
Who is this stranger? And why the hell am I not nervous?
(Am I not nervous?)




Chorus 2:
Who is this stranger
I should be scared, could be dangerous
I should prepare for this
I wish I didn’t fall so hard for you
