The Gentleman’s Shadow
TitanChord
“You don’t see me first.
You see the shadow.”
I walk the alleys where the deals get made,
My name’s not spoken, but my debts get paid.
I don’t raise my voice, I don’t play it loud,
But the shadow I cast can clear a crowd.
The gentleman’s shadow,
Cold as the rain.
The gentleman’s shadow,
Carries the blame.
I walk unseen,
But I own the game.
Gold on the wrist, but my heart runs black,
I don’t face the sun, I don’t look back.
I strike no deals I can’t outlast,
Every scar I wear was carved to last.
The gentleman’s shadow,
Cold as the rain.
The gentleman’s shadow,
Carries the blame.
I walk unseen,
But I own the game.
“You want to know power?
It don’t wear a crown.
It walks behind you…
And never makes a sound.”
The gentleman’s shadow,
Sharp as a knife.
The gentleman’s shadow,
Cuts through your life.
I walk unseen —
But I burn like fire.
Timing is estimated — lines are spaced evenly across the track.

Lyrics
“You don’t see me first. You see the shadow.”
I walk the alleys where the deals get made, My name’s not spoken, but my debts get paid. I don’t raise my voice, I don’t play it loud, But the shadow I cast can clear a crowd.
The gentleman’s shadow, Cold as the rain. The gentleman’s shadow, Carries the blame. I walk unseen, But I own the game.
Gold on the wrist, but my heart runs black, I don’t face the sun, I don’t look back. I strike no deals I can’t outlast, Every scar I wear was carved to last.
The gentleman’s shadow, Cold as the rain. The gentleman’s shadow, Carries the blame. I walk unseen, But I own the game.
“You want to know power? It don’t wear a crown. It walks behind you… And never makes a sound.”
The gentleman’s shadow, Sharp as a knife. The gentleman’s shadow, Cuts through your life. I walk unseen — But I burn like fire.
