[Verse 1: Drapht]

I lose control, represent my soul and my heart

Held for a start against the whole world in the dark

Fell from the ark, I'm Noah's third animal

Never making the cut, fed to the cannibals

Man, I'm pulling my head out, start making a change

I'm a handful but I've set out to represent your name

I came up from no fame and fortune

Just to live life and hold my head high when I walk through

The crowd of these doubting eyes

Walked every day, every night, never found the light

Just mounting ties with these hood rats and snakes

All the people you call crims, I call my mates

I break laws to live, never take more than needed

Skateboarders, then graffers, leaving the walls bleeding

Yeah, we're reading, yeah, we're just as cultured

As men holding holsters and upper class vultures

A pulse is the only difference with you

While you drive a Rolls Royce, I hold the vision of truth

While you hold the cash, I hold the bloody passion of a knight

That will fight for his king and his country and his life

[Hook: Drapht & Porsah Laine]

I lose control, I lose control

Of everything, of everything

I've ever known, I've ever known

I lose control, I lose control

I lose control, I lose control

Of everything, of everything

I've ever known, I've ever known

I lose control, I lose control


[Verse 2: Drapht]

Driven to the bottle, God has gotta save me

I'm lost in the matrix, your must turns to maybe

He's forgotten, maybe betrayed me

Left me rotten, maybe be thankful for life that he gave me

Remember? Yeah, that lazy day in September

Blessed with a good heart but cursed with a temper

Yeah, ten percent of your blood's from a emperor

The fam you descend from, defend no surrender

And when you lose it, it's your fault, your bad

Can't catapult all the blame back on your dad

Mad 'cause the way that he raised you made you

The man you are today, no one made those mistakes too

It's the breakthrough, finally see you making tracks

Make one wrong move, bruz, see you're taken back

To square one, where one will never recognise

That you switched your position until you go and check the dice

And the second time over isn't easier

No one will believe in you and all your friends are leaving you

And growing up, moving on, know enough when you were wrong

People might remember to call you and ask you how you're going

And no one gives that there's no existing love for you

Maybe you'll believe in yourself and you'll start loving too

Loving, knowing this is the key to the treasure chest

The last place you look that you'll never guess


[Bridge: Drapht]

I can't ever stress enough now, man

I pick up blocks of gold, turn 'em to sand

Everything I seem to touch seem to turn to stone

I swear I lead the pack, look back, I'm alone

Can't control myself, hold myself together

Losing faith in the game, even though I'm better

Than the competition; it's so undefined

I need to listen and the only problem is that

[Hook: Drapht & Porsah Laine]

I lose control, I lose control

Of everything, of everything

I've ever known, I've ever known

I lose control, I lose control

I lose control, I lose control

Of everything, of everything

I've ever known, I've ever known

I lose control, I lose control


[Outro: Porsah Laine]

I lose control

I lose control

I lose control
