[ Featuring Sheila E., Tarriona 'Tank' Ball ]
Intention
Try to bait
And trick ya
Gaslightin'
Still can't stop
The show
Already on the road
Too bright
With a heart that's on fire
Head strung
Got ya toes against the wire
Another fight to get what you want
Yeah yeah
You put the hours in
And I know I know
You're working harder than
It's clear you're next in line
How do they keep on passin' you by
When ya lights too bright to hold
Try to block
But you're shine is bold
When the dark emits
You glow
You're a shadow
You're a shadow on the wall
On the wall
True Fiction
Time to tame the lying (lion)
Sleep tight
They only know what they know
So aim high on the low
Steady ready
In the end they'll never catch ya
Bite your tongue
As their lies all come undone
Pay the price give them what you want
Yeah yeah
You put the hours in
And I know I know
You're working harder than
If the limit is the sky
Why is the ladder so hard to climb
When ya lights too bright to hold
Try to block
But you're shine is bold
When the dark emits
You glow
You're a shadow
You're a shadow on the wall
On the wall
When the shadows fade away
No ones in the way
You can achieve the impossible
With every spit and every blow
It's a rip that shatters your soul
Stay bold you're in control
Yeah yeah
You put the hours in
And I know I know
You're working harder than
It's clear you're next in line
How do they keep on passin' you by
You're a shadow on the wall
