Slave No More Gr3ys0n (Ft. Zach B)

[Chorus: GR3YS0N]
I survive through the wars
I slash with the swords
For freedom to be restored
I need peace within my core
Slave no more
Slave no more
I survive through the wars
I slash with the swords
For freedom to be restored
I need peace within my core
Slave no more
Slave no more

[Verse 1: GR3YS0N]
Slash, I'm sick ended by past decisions
In my youth I had the vigor to grip the metal when triggered
My slash would make incisions, some say that I was tripping
Was a scourge to my city I lived in when I was clipping, I mean
But revеnge was the mission
You can ask a lad, a killer was my position
As a kid I was a gift, as a teen I was conditionеd
To slash any opp within my field of vision
'Cause I saw my father die, see the arrows as they hit him
He told me stay home, but of course I didn't listen
I underestimated all the trouble that I could get, and
And underappreciated the nice life that I was living
Now I'm plague by the nightmares
Vision of the spirits got me screaming every night, yeah
In the past I never felt fear
Now I get night scares, waking up with dry tears
Encaged by my hatred
Turning a deaf ear to most of the helpful statements
Growing up I gotten jaded, danger I was encaged in
I can motivate a writer to make a movie or a manga
Yeah, a lot of dudes will be proud of that
Most who never dealt with consequences living action packed
Head on the swivel, due to smoke, opps will get you packed
Paranoia peaking, gaining power, doing proper pacts
So slavery is my sentence
Given servitude, I'll gladly make it my penance
The sins that I committed has honestly made me wretched
Joy is just a long lost friend I can't remember, let him know
So now I'm covered with scars
From times I survived when I really took it too far
For what the hell is life, I don't even know anymore
I don't wanna be a slave to my anger anymore
I wish I died within battle, so I can go to Valhalla
'Cause when it came of age, the only thing that had matter
Is that I'm still alive with a spirit broken and battered
My mind in constant conflict, trying to lower the chatter, talk to him
But pop said that I gotta rise
'Cause what's the point of letting myself die to the diatribe?
That there's no retribution, like I can't find a solution
I ain't fluid and losing
I was blessed to see equations, solve 'em and then prove it
The reason I'm around, I've removed the bad influence
The types that likes to leech tryna make you feel stupid
For realizing your value, knowing that you the coolest
They can't manipulate you if you know it's in your core
That everything inside of your body makes up a God
You a star that is raw within all of your flaws
Through control I found peace, through peace freedom's restored
