Walking through shadows in the valley of death Been looking for a way out, I'm lost, I confess Tried to swallow my pride, now I can't catch my breath Been scratching at the walls and got no fingernails left Been taking pills for my depression, but it don't feel different Couple extra when I'm stressing, trying hard to show interest Pain-killers numb the pain, but they're clouding my vision Praying every day, I won't pass this pain to my children It's the long nights and the dark days You say you understand, but you ain't on the same page You ain't in the same cage, you ain't share the same pain Praying to a god that don't even know my name Devil knocking on my door, trying hard to get in And I done boarded it up, but he now kicked that shit in With his demons in tow, and they want under my skin While the ghosts of my past, won't let me forget sins So I ride, yeah, into the valley of death And so I ride, and though the flame burns my skin I can still see my breath So I ride, yeah, into the valley of death And so I ride, and though the flame burns my skin I can still see my breath So I ride, yeah
