Castle Walls Lyrics
[Hook]
Everyone thinks that I have it all
But it’s so empty living behind these castle walls
These castle walls
If I should tumble if I should fall
Would any one hear me screaming behind these castle walls
There's no one here at all, behind these castle walls
[Verse 1]
Wondering if anyone would hear me screaming behind these castle walls
Or are they being ignorant and taking no attention to my calls
Feeling helpless, no one wants to lift me from my fall
Like witnesses at a crime scene they didn’t help, they only saw
See the smile on my face though my heart is frowning
Being secretive, thoughts on my mind I ain’t telling
If ya cared to notice, you would’ve heard the tears of a clown
But instead you let me down, and then left me to drown
Nah, never judge a person by the way he looks
Cause he could be a lonely hermit huddled and crying by the nook
Used to be fluid and thought that I could be related
Guess not so I hardened, my heart and soul coagulated
Friends too busy to help me outta my mess
You ain’t my wingman if ya can’t even tell that I’m depressed
They say they got my back, that’s what they all say
Cause when the time comes, all of em turn out to be a couple fakes
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
Using acquaintances as stepping stones to get where I need
Benefiting myself for the moment then drop em and proceed
Don’t wanna be hanging on to the friendship for too long
Or else disloyalty’s gonna seep in and everything will go wrong
I know of the horrible feeling of being betrayed
Cause when it kicks in you start to count on yourself everyday
While your bond in someone else’s mind begins to fade
You start to think to yourself that all this time you’ve been played
And after all these years I’ve finally learned my lesson
Put up my guard for my presence, hidden behind these defenses
So proud of my work, these walls stand up high and tall
So stable that no one even me can dream to make em fall
But as time passes and my body starts to grow old
These barricades of mine are starting to become part of my soul
Now it’s in me, you can see it my walk, talk, and emotions
Conversations fly at me and my heart instantly tightens
Lone wolf trapped within his own created cage
Custom made stage, solo space, got enough out of this phase
Sitting at the throne, with no alliances for my kingdom
Live and die alone, absolutely no use for my riches
Alone top of the castle with a view of my destruction
Readying myself for the sieges, it’s one versus millions
Been told it don’t have to be this way
But it seems too late, can’t seem to change my ways
As much as I love the dark I hate and fear it the same amount
Complete oblivion descends upon me as I stand my ground
Hopefully this message sent to my family, friends, and fans
Will finally reach em and make em understand that
[Hook]
[Bridge]
Nobody knows I'm all alone
Living in this castle made of stone
They say that money is freedom, but I feel trapped inside it all
And while I sit so high up on a throne
I wonder how I can feel this low
On top of the world it's beautiful
But there's no place to fall
[Hook]
