Lyrics
Shadows in the spotlight
(Verse 1)
Yo, I’m the ghost in the machine, the spark in the dark,
The scream in the silence, the bite in the bark.
I’m the underdog’s anthem, the misfit’s creed,
The voice of the broken, the ones who will bleed.
I’ve been knocked down, counted out, left for dead,
But I’m back with a vengeance, got a fire in my head.
I’m the storm in the calm, the crack in the glass,
The shadow in the spotlight, I’m a pain in the ass.
They said I’d never make it, said I’d never last,
But I’m built for the battle, I’m a product of the past.
I’ve been through the wringer, I’ve been through the fight,
Now I’m standing in the flames, and I’m burning bright.
I’m a shadow in the spotlight, a ghost in the game,
I’m the spark in the fire, I’m the one to blame.
I’ve been through the darkness, now I’m stepping into light,
I’m a shadow in the spotlight, and I’m ready for the fight.
(Verse 2)
I’m the rhyme in the rhythm, the beat in the bone,
The chill in the spine when you’re standing alone.
I’m the grit in the grind, the sweat in the hustle,
The fire in the belly when the world’s in a struggle.
I’ve been down and out, I’ve been lost and found,
I’ve been kicked to the curb, but I’m back on the ground.
I’m the underdog’s anthem, the rebel’s call,
I’m the one who’s gonna rise, gonna stand tall.
They said I’d never make it, said I’d never last,
But I’m built for the battle, I’m a product of the past.
I’ve been through the wringer, I’ve been through the fight,
Now I’m standing in the flames, and I’m burning bright.
I’m a shadow in the spotlight, a ghost in the game,
I’m the spark in the fire, I’m the one to blame.
I’ve been through the darkness, now I’m stepping into light,
I’m a shadow in the spotlight, and I’m ready for the fight.
B
I’m the echo in the alley, the whisper in the wind,
The voice of the voiceless, the fight to the end.
I’m the spark in the darkness, the flame in the night,
I’m the shadow in the spotlight, and I’m ready for the fight.
So when the world tries to break you, and the pain’s too much,
Remember the fire, remember the touch.
We’re the shadows in the spotlight, the ghosts in the game,
We’re the sparks in the fire, we’re the ones to blame.
We’ve been through the darkness, now we’re stepping into light,
We’re the shadows in the spotlight, and we’re ready for the fight.
