overflow - dance with the devil ii - the illest overflow lyrics

[verse i]
in a city where dreams are born and laid to rest
there was a kid named yassine, who strived to impress
the world is his canvas and the pen is his brush
the paint is the pain he obtained from the hush

in a rush, cause he knows he got what it takes
to etch his name on the walls of the f*ckin’ game
lyrically he’s gifted from the ones who done reigned
deep inside is a flame torchin’ the back of his brain

with thoughts untamed, on his quest, he sets
to shake up the game, he put his pen to the test
from parks to alleyways, he became addicted to the feelin’
that now he can’t replace

words quickly became his high
only thing that made him feel like he was really alive
decades of feelin’ misunderstood he nearly forgot
and when he held that pen, he felt like he was ready to fly

[chorus]
everybody’s still chasing stars, in the neon city’s sight
tryna be famous and, do it overnight
willin’ to sacrifice it all just to be in the limelight
this dance with the devil, it’s a dangerous device
in the shadows he resides, where dreams pay the ultimate price
(i’m falling and i can’t turn back)

[verse ii]
one night yassine scrollin’ on his phone
he was seein’ all these clowns, flexin’ what they hold
from the cars to the gold to the honeys to the boats
he was sold! he then felt a cold
breeze, sudden as a cyclone. he approached the window
peeked outside with a groan, saw a tall man standin’ there in a coat
with a grin on his face, he then said with a friendly tone
“yassine, my friend, you’ve got talent, it’s true
i’ve been watchin’ your journey, and i’m here for you
i can make you a star, give you all that you crave, fame, fortune, and power, it’s yours to save
but remember my offer comes at a cost
i want your soul, your essence and all that you love
you will rise to the top no doubt, but your heart may grow cold
in this dance with the devil, stories often unfold.”

(i’m falling and i can’t turn back) * 4

he gazes at the devil, a grin on his face
temptation and destiny, locked in a chase
in that moment, he ponders, what path to decide
as the city’s neon lights fl!cker and collide
