Verse 1 (DAX):

...valley of shadow and death, I don't really want to go there

Hurt all over, bleeding no where, can't see a future, feeling so scared

Crepuscular times, no bliss 'cause I'm blind, eclipsed by the night

Feel it inside... my birthday's today, but I feel like I've died

...and I know, and I know, and I know I still can't

See the light

...and I know, and I know, and I know I still can't

Breathe alright - I'm popping

Pills to get ceiling finished, I'll build a roof just to impede my vision, loosen the

Noose, I want to see the image of the sky in the night, morning's coming any minute

Looking back... new pictures of my ex - and she's looking sex (where's the light)

I'm greedy for money, from God I stay running, the punishment for me is shadow and death

Chorus:

Advesperascit, I think I've lost it

Drowning in darkness, I'll be more cautious every time

...cautious every time

Beauty's been broken, hope you don't notice

Darkness approaches, I'm feeling hopeless every time

...hopeless every time

Verse 2 (Venom):

Dedication to this pen in my hand, or typing

Away on a phone, a sickle to a slab - writing poetic syllables

Hieroglyphics across the land - ancient arts of hard

Work, and I do it all for the craft, rap creation, I

Started out as a nobody, still nobody knows me but at least now

I am a somebody - grew up with no father, single mother raising a

Bunch of kids, no sisters or brothers, but the neighborhood was

Family and she did what she did I'm all for progression as long as you have a

Passion to support your growth 'cause growing without any struggles is a little

Iffy, like did you really grow? Shout out to DAX for allowing the Venom to

Flow, poison your veins to send you off peacefully on this lonely road, yo

I'm tired of Peace just singing the same flows, I say tired cause I'm in the same boat

Chorus
