Shadow Man (feat. Phoelix, Smino & Saba)

Lyrics

How do you see me?
 How do you love me?
 How to do you remember me?
 I'm a rotten nightingale
 I hope that darkness keeps you well
 When I can't fall asleep at night
 I blindly taught myself to fight
 Aw shadow man shadow box, please keep your hands up
 And if you get knocked down don't forget to stand up
 Bless the nightingale
 Darkness keep you well
 Bless the nightingale
 Darkness keep you well
 Shadow man shadow box, dance in the dark with me
 This resurrected agony there's apathy for caskets
 Everything I ever loved I lost in the magic
 I claim by the river, my body delivered
 When I die there's 27 rappers at my funeral
 Moses wrote my name in gold and Kanye did the eulogy
 Remember all the bashfulness, understand the truancy
 Here I stand in front of a college dropout
 My music was a church when my spirit hopped out
 Met a gypsy in LA and she reading my palm tree
 Mysterious situation like kissing the concrete i.e getting money
 I been close to heaven
 Baby claim he love me, hold me down forever
 I never should have bought this halo
 He waiting for me at his table
 My funeral a Disney fable
 Cause the king bout to take me home
 Preach church tabernacle, Tallahassee sunshine
 Southern is my bloodline we know it'll come time
 To go, and though I leave like alumni
 I'm lying like a lullaby and quiet like my tongue tied
 Alone, bury me in satin tell the pastors say the sash is the same class we behold
 First role, and if ashes turn to ashes then I'm back in my first form with a dust storm with a corner, and coke
 Morbid or late, lord give lord take
 Viva la muerte, mortal man
 Less love, more hate
 More like mortician, we need our faith
 Funeral home lookin like a home that I used to live in
 You wasn't supposed to go so soon I took it for granted
 Maybe we'll meet the next life, maybe another planet
 Open my soul but then it'll end with an open casket
 Uh ay
 Tippy toe on a tightrope
 Leaning on green and it gon be a dice roll
 I'm feenin a feline who mindset Afeni
 I got 2pacs for us
 Gold on my gumline done got rich off my tongue
 Sticky dro in the tight roll
 Cleaning my grievances
 As a lil' heathen I
 Sat pledge allegiance out
 Never believed in yall
 System I needed more
 And I done went Figaro with the finger roll
 Landed wrong split my head, start leaking songs
 And i'm worser than they worst, they make a nigga live forever
 Flock with them birds, my heart stay lighter than a feather
 It's gon be niggas boomin' at my funeral
 Tell em play Metro Boomin' at my funeral
 St. Louis taught me death could be your neighbor, stay away
 Don't take the family for granted better days away
 Bless the nightingale
 Darkness keep you well
 Bless the nightingale
 Darkness keep you well
 Bless the nightingale
 Darkness keep you well
 Bless the nightingale
 Darkness keep you well
 
 How do you see me?
 How do you love me?
 How to do you remember me?
 I'm a rotten nightingale
 I hope that darkness keeps you well
 When I can't fall asleep at night
 I blindly taught myself to fight
 Aw shadow man shadow box, please keep your hands up
 And if you get knocked down don't forget to stand up
 Bless the nightingale
 Darkness keep you well
 Bless the nightingale
