Never Before
Never before I looked into this mirror
First of all I smashed the glass
Wounded in the streets of screams
So I grew claws of fear
Never before I admitted gentleness
First I'd steal your money
In the clutches of the raging child
Who I named trauma
Never before I lived without a gang
Ain't part of my world
Violence is the currency of the weak ones
Got some change?
Never before I left this place
Golden cage in the dead jungle
Where my lingo reigns
Not the heart but the mind
Never before my heart melted
How does it feel?
Cause I locked gazes with you
Wanted to escape your gentleness
Never before
Never Before
