Walk Alone Lyrics

[00:11.63] Trapped, no shield, no sword
[00:13.68] The unbeaten path got my soul so sore
[00:16.47] Allured by the lust, something money can't cure
[00:18.86] The Devil want me as is, but God he want more
[00:21.89] Eyes closed, eyes open, great another day, here we go
[00:24.93] like a nigga woke up late in The Truman Show
[00:27.67] Living life without a care, mean pokerface
[00:30.06] But I'm forced to play solitaire till I get up out of here
[00:33.25] Move like a wanted man with a bounty on his head
[00:35.83] Work alone, sleep alone, eat alone, daily bread
[00:38.65] Counting till my fingers red, how you gon' judge a man
[00:41.54] walking in the shoes of a man with a broken leg?
[00:44.40] Flame on the trail headed for the powder keg
[00:47.36] Last place in the race I ain't never led
[00:49.87] Like I ain't never bled, time to get up out of bed
[00:52.71] Serving in the army of one, it's on again
[00:55.58] Walk alone, I walk alone, you know I walk it alone
[00:59.35] I always been on my own, ever since the day I born
[01:04.41] So I don't mind walking alone
[01:08.27]
[01:13.53] I'm in a chess match, I'm in a death trap
[01:20.31] I'm tryna find out where the eggs in the nest at
[01:23.07] I'm one blood when the sky turns jet black
[01:25.89] No love in the world can correct that
[01:28.69] I'm in a slow lane, I'm on my Cobain
[01:31.39] I'm in the new spot tryna run a old game
[01:34.12] I got a new chick, put out my old flame
[01:36.93] No peace, no sleep, no love for a young beast
[01:40.48] You can put me in a cage
[01:41.95] You can put me in the jungle where the lion get blazed
[01:44.84] There ain't no hell like the hell I raise
[01:47.40] I'd die in the bed I made 'fore I lay with a love I loathe
[01:51.59] I'm a snake in the garden of bones
[01:53.62] I'm a loner in a world of clones
[01:55.78] I'm the piece that don't belong, see I roam
[01:58.45] where the the Reaper roam till they put my name on a stone
[02:03.72]
[02:24.12] The longest walk I'll probably ever be on
[02:26.21] The Road to Perdition, guess I'm finna get my plea on
[02:28.93] I pray these wings strong enough to carry me on
[02:31.79] I promise every second felt as if it took an eon
[02:34.67] Walking like the lost boys of Sierra Leone
[02:37.25] The trail of tears what they got me like a Cherokee on
[02:40.15] Between the ears something I require therapy on
[02:42.51] for the working the bone like my name Robert Dion
[02:45.55] I go above and beyond, the duty called, truly y'all
[02:48.40] Even though they kind of blew me off like a booty call
[02:51.28] Asked me if I'm just another muli or a movie star
[02:54.06] Forced to face the music like a graduate of Juilliard
[02:56.78] Walk alone, talk alone, get my Charlie Parker on
[02:59.54] Make my make alone, shed light upon the dark alone
[03:02.28] Get my sparkle on, it's a mission I'm embarking on
[03:05.22] A kamikaze in the danger zone far from home
[03:07.83]
