The Abyss Lyrics - Don't Look Down - Mr. Lif

I landed on the ground 

Took a look around 

He's nowhere to be found 

But without a sound 

I stood there silent 

Engulfed in violence 

Embraced by shadows 

My mind set: Battle 

Standing in the courtyard 

Right beneath the balcony 

Hoping that my lady ain't a Valkyrie 

Should one suggest that I be met by death 

I'll fight til I've got no strength 

Or there's nothing left

The gate was left agape 

To the alleyway 

The path where he escaped 

But so silently 

I could hear the wind rustle the vines 

Amidst the dim street lights 

The moon shines 

This type of scene 

Sniper scene 

True that it might be him 

But it might be me 

Out through the gate I go 

But kept low 

Shift strictly to intuition mode 

Cut my eyes left 

Cut my eyes right 

He's not in my eyesight 

I'm ready for gun fight 

Photos 

The muthafucka made a dash and moved fast 

I licked off a blast 

It flew past him 

He's a block away but I can catch him 

Face bashing 

New course of action 

I'm gaining 

Out here without training 

Heart started pounding when I saw him blazing 

So amazed the ways that life could go 

Somebody help me cause I'm drowning in this 

Somebody help me cause I've found the abyss

Mr. Lif 

He popped two shots 

Though I thought he was out 

Whizzed past my face 

But I can't stop now 

Feeling like a demon 

Bobbing and weaving 

I could have been struck man 

I'm lucky to be breathing 

Chest heaving 

Adrenaline rush 

Voice inside of my head says: 

Inner Voice: 

("This is too much") 

("Hesitation 

Doubt 

Re-route 

It's not too late for you to be out 

You could see now 

Drop the gun 

You've already won 

No need to bleed two 

You just dropped one 

He won't be back 

This is over attack 

You just ended a life 

You're the owner of that") 

Mr. Lif 

Had to stop in my tracks 

And put my back on the wall 

If I'm invisible to him 

Then that's the end of the brawl 

With such a sudden withdrawal 

I didn't know what to think 

Then I realized that I survived a walk on the brink 

On the edge of destruction 

For sure pure panic 

The gravity of this 

Turned me to pure manic 

I stood there 

And finally felt fear 

I'm sure back at the crib 

My girl's in tears 

I've gotta go back 

But I did so slowly 

Along the same path of fury 

That blurred me 

Who heard me? 

All the neighborhood lights on 

Now I hear sirens 

Remnants of violence 

Silence at the core of my mind 

As I teleported back to the scene of the crime 

Told my girl 

"I'm here" 

Open the attic door 

I assure safety 

After tragic war 

As we embraced 

She cried 

She thought maybe I died 

I'm glad that we're alive 

But part of me 

Partially 

Parted me 

I was barely even present for the hug 

So please pardon me 

My mind beams 

Stages of dreams 

Crazed as it seems 

Survive by any means 

I never really slept that well 

After that night 

Sunset 

Now gets me set to fight 

And it's wearing down even my relentless type 

And it seems nobody can contest the plight 

So I'm waking from nightmares 

And even though the coast is clear 

I fell into my own despair... 

Somebody help me cause I'm drowning in this 

Somebody help me cause I've found the abyss
