Yeah, uh
Check the temperature
It’s cold out here
Listen
I built this castle out of nothing but a dream and pain
Watched the sunshine turn to ashes in the pouring rain
I gave my circle everything, I gave them all I had
Now I’m staring at the ceiling feeling low and sad
They say keep your enemies close but keep your brothers near
But when the lights go out, the snakes are all that I can hear
I’m looking in the mirror, see a man I barely know
With all these heavy burdens that I’m forced to tow
Don't trust anybody cause you gonna regret
It’s a debt you’ll pay that you won't ever forget
Yeah, Jay Two99, I’m walking through the fire alone
Sitting on the throne but it’s feeling like a tomb of stone
Don't trust anybody cause you gonna regret
Every promise broken is a memory that I’m trying to set
Free, let it go, let the cold wind blow
I’m watching how the tides change, watching how they grow
I remember nights we were splitting up the last plate
Now they talk behind my back, man, I can see the hate
It’s funny how the status change the way they look at you
They want the shine but they don’t want the work you gotta do
I cut the grass, yeah, I see the vipers in the weeds
I’m planting shadows while I’m waiting on the better seeds
Heart cold, pulse slow, I don’t need a hand to hold
I’d rather stack my paper than believe the lies I’m told
Don't trust anybody cause you gonna regret
It’s a debt you’ll pay that you won't ever forget
Yeah, Jay Two99, I’m walking through the fire alone
Sitting on the throne but it’s feeling like a tomb of stone
Don't trust anybody cause you gonna regret
Every promise broken is a memory that I’m trying to set
Free, let it go, let the cold wind blow
I’m watching how the tides change, watching how they grow
I’m moving on, I’m leaving all the ghosts behind
Searching for some peace of heart, peace of mind
They wanted me to fold, they wanted me to crack
But I’m a savage in the dark, ain't no turning back
So keep your distance if your energy is feeling thin
I’m focused on the prize, I’m focused on the win
Jay Two99, yeah, the name is etched in stone
I’d rather be a king standing perfectly alone
Than surrounded by the leeches waiting for the fall
I’m standing tall, yeah, I’m standing through it all
Don't trust anybody cause you gonna regret
It’s a debt you’ll pay that you won't ever forget
Yeah, Jay Two99, I’m walking through the fire alone
Sitting on the throne but it’s feeling like a tomb of stone
Don't trust anybody cause you gonna regret
Every promise broken is a memory that I’m trying to set
Free, let it go, let the cold wind blow
I’m watching how the tides change, watching how they grow
Yeah, Jay Two99
Trust nobody
Regret everything they did
But stay moving
Stay winning
Don't look back
