I've been fighting my case and I've been doing just fine
Never paid no attention, I just live in my mind
And I have the retention for the things that I find
So I feel it's a sentence, I ain't living your lie (ah, ah)
I ain't living your lie (I ain't living your lie)

Maybe I was my own Achilles
When I didn't find out, running from me

'Cause I'm not scared of my shadow
Or the things that I've let go
Pick your card, which one you choosing?
That's part of the illusion
When life falls to ruins
Is it dying or blooming?

I've been telling you this, from the moment exist
Never telling no lies, I just live in abyss
Yeah, I said I been patient, but that shit don't fly
I been getting it right

Maybe I was my own Achilles
When I didn't find out, running from me

'Cause I'm not scared of my shadow
Or the things that I've let go
Pick your card, which one you choosing?
That's part of the illusion
When life falls to ruins
Is it dying or blooming?
