My Own Shadow

[Verse 1]
I'm getting famous, I used to be nameless
I got ambition, I used to be aimless
I'm trying to make it, I gotta take it
I'm feeling naked, never been basic
And I met my calling just last year
Now there ain't no stalling I'm in fifth gear
Sun in my eye and I still see clear
These haters lying in the rear

[Chorus]
Coming out to battle
I can barely recognise my own shadow
I'm getting big and it's taking its handle
My career lighting up like a candle, yeah

Coming out to battle
I can barely recognise my own shadow
I'm getting big and it's taking its handle
My career lighting up like a candle

[Verse 2]
They want a photo, they love the polos
Say I'm their hero, I used to be zero
I love the ocean, hate the commotion
I got emotions, keep 'em closed in
And I'm living day by day not thinking of the night
Sometimes I wonder if I ever felt alive
Now I'm out to grind like my life's on the line
No nine to five, strictly five to five

[Chorus]
Cause I'm coming out to battle
I can barely recognise my own shadow
I'm getting big and it's taking its handle
My career lighting up like a candle, yeah

Coming out to battle
I can barely recognise my own shadow
I'm getting big and it's taking its handle
My career lighting up like a candle
