The Gentleman’s Shadow

“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.
