Yea
I'm at war with my demons
(hmm my demons)
I'm at war with my demons
(Yea my demons)
I'm at war with my demons
(Hmm my demons)
I'm at war with my demons
(Yea my demons)
All I want to do is illuminate
Take charge make I fit dominate
My prayers been answered at heavens gate
Na to deliver am cause the delay
I don't know you, you don't know me
But it sounds funny when they're talking
I dey laugh out loud when they're talking
I hear voices in my head
(in my head in my head)
They be calling me too bad
(I think they want me dead)
Some go say I dey possess oo
(in my head in my head)
I hear voices in my head
Voices in my headdd
This game no be child's play
Nobody told me before I pressed play
I'm surrounded cannot escape
Why do I still keep making mistakes
I can't give what I can't take
I need solution to my bad days
I preach peace while my heart breaks
And I keep showing love on the wrong days
I was born with a smile
I lost that since I turned man
It's no man business if I'm fine
Tell me why my daddy had to take another wife
Mama said I'm a blessing
And my demons dey one side dey test me
Gave em a chance I saw em took chances
I Stay low till I can lift my glasses up
I hear voices in my head
(in my head in my head)
They be calling me too bad
(I think they want me dead)
Some go say I dey possess oo
(in my head in my head)
I hear voices in my head
Voices in my headdd
I hear voices in my head
(in my head in my head)
They be calling me too bad
(I think they want me dead)
Some go say I dey possess oo
(in my head in my head)
I hear voices in my head
Voices in my headdd
(I'm at war with my demons
(hmm my demons)
I'm at war with my demons
I'm at war with my demons
(Hmm my demons)
I'm at war with my demons)
