Asylum
Lanes Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm breaking through cages to find my asylum (and I will never let)
Shattering anxiety crush my desire (despite the fact that)
Daylight is fading away in the darkness (my thorny path will)
End up inside of asylum, asylum
I'm not a thug, but my blood runs cold
Call an ambulance if you step on our road
Lyrically there's no chance we would have to fold
Like a motherfuckin' Wall of China we will never fall

Sometimes I wonder, do I belong in this world?
But I'm giving it my all-all, so how this coin gonna roll
Controlled by high gold standards,
Learned that the sky excepts everyone who's brave enough to fly
And I don't know why it can't be sold in my own fuckin' town
People whisper more and more as time goes by
Drop Dead Lane on your doorstep (it's too late to deny)
Yeah nothing holds us back tonight
To murder couple mikes, watch us but don't cry
Crime everytime we rap, but, hell, you won't regret
I'm breaking through cages to find my asylum (and I will never let)
Shattering anxiety crush my desire (despite the fact that)
Daylight is fading away in the darkness (my thorny path will)
End up inside of asylum, asylum
We claim to be lyrically insane
Gained empirically higher skill to rap
Duet from Drop Dead lane - our name
Witch hunters, monsters, rippers, still hustlers
Dazzling skillset won't make you upset
Apathy caused by a fucking regret
'Cause you can't witness live performance of that
Tell your mom and your dad, everyone you met
DDL - definitely hardest thing you had
'Cause one day we gonna come to your land
Put on a show and make you wet
After all said and done just keep in your head
(Drop Dead Lane came to your town) not without your help
To share our sound and we thank u for that
Hey yo, Diss, bring that chorus, they want it hundred percent
(They want it hundred percent)
I'm breaking through cages to find my asylum (and I will never let)
Shattering anxiety crush my desire (despite the fact that)

Daylight is fading away in the darkness (my thorny path will)
End up inside of asylum, asylum
