Lyrics
Intro

YEAH!
FUCK YEAH!
Metal up your ass! Get some People!

Verse 1

Seven years old in the dark
Cupboard walls, world falls apart
Smell of smoke and mother's screams
Father's blood in childhood dreams, YEAH!
Learned to hide before I learned to walk
Learned to kill before I learned to talk
Garnath streets don't give a damn
Eat or starve, that's who I am.

Pre-Chorus

They took everything I had
Now I'll take it fucking back, YEAH YEAH!
Every scar's a lesson learned
Every bridge I've ever burned

Chorus

FUCK YEAH! I am the shadow
Born in the flame, I am the shadow
Fear is my name, cut through the darkness
Blade in my hand, no one gets close enough to see where I stand
I am the shadow's edge, YEAH!

Verse 2

Old man with his iron grip
Taught me how to lead a hit, damn
Four months learning how to bleed
Then he left without a word to me
asshole!
Empty room and empty eyes
Another lesson in goodbyes
YEAH!
Lock it down and throw the key
No one ever leaves but me, ah HAH!
FUCK YEAH!

Pre-Chorus

They think I'm cold, they think I'm dead, they never see what's in my head
YEAH! YEAH!
Smile like a knife and laugh like rain, humor hides the fucking pain
BOOM! BOOM!

Chorus

I am the shadow
Born in the flame, I am the shadow
YEAH! Fear is my name, cut through the darkness
Blade in my hand, no one gets close enough to see where I stand
I am the shadow's edge, YEAH!
FUCK YEAH!
TELL THEM ABOUT IT NYSERA!
BLEED MY EARS, MIRAEL!
YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!

Bridge

I am the shadow
BOOM!
Born in the flame, I am the shadow
YEAH! Saline is my name, cut through the darkness
Death in my hand, anyone gets close enough they'll never stand
I am the shadow's edge, YEAH!
FUCK YEAH!

Outro

Stay small, see first, trust no one, survive
AHHHHHHH!
Keep up People!
