Lyrics
0:11Trapped no shield no sword
0:13The unbeaten path got my soul so sore
0:16Allured by the lust
0:17Something money can't cure
0:19The Devil want me as is
0:20But God He want more
0:22Eyes closed eyes open
0:23Great another day here we go
0:25Like a ni**a woke up late in The Truman Show
0:27Livin' life without a care mean poker face
0:30But I'm forced to play solitaire 'til
0:32I get up out of here
0:33Move like a wanted man with a bounty on his head
0:36Work alone sleep alone
0:37Eat alone daily bread
0:38Countin' till my fingers' red
0:40How you gon' judge a man
0:41Walkin' in the shoes of a man with a broken leg
0:44Flame on the trail headed for the powder keg
0:47Last place in the race I ain't never led
0:50Like I ain't never bled
0:51Time to get up out of bed
0:52Servin' in the army of one it's on again
0:55Walk alone I walk alone
0:56You know I walk all alone
0:59I always been on my own ever since
1:02The day I was born
1:04So I don't mind walkin' alone
1:07Walk alone I walk alone
1:08You know I walk all alone
1:10I always been on my own ever since
1:13The day I was born
1:15So I don't mind walkin' alone
1:17I'm in a chess match I'm in a death trap
1:20I'm tryin' to find out
1:21Where the eggs in the nest at
1:23I'm one blood when the sky turns jet black
1:25No love in the world can correct that
1:28I'm in a slow lane I'm on my Cobain
1:31I'm in the new spot tryin' to run a old game
1:34I got a new chick put out my old flame
1:37No peace no sleep no love for a young beast
1:40You can put me in a cage
1:42You can put me in the jungle
1:43Where the lion get blazed
1:45There ain't no hell like the hell I raise
1:47I'd die in the bed I made 'fore
1:49I lay with a love I loathe
1:51I'm a snake in the garden of bones
1:53I'm a loner in a world of clones
1:55I'm the piece that don't belong see I roam
1:58Where the the Reaper roam 'til
2:00They put my name on a stone
2:02Walk alone I walk alone
2:03You know I walk all alone
2:05I always been on
2:06My own ever since the day I was born
2:11So I don't mind walkin' alone
2:12Walk alone I walk alone
2:14You know I walk all alone
2:16I always been on my own ever since
2:20The day I was born
2:22So I don't mind walkin' alone
2:24The longest walk I'll probably ever be on
2:26The Road to Perdition
2:27Guess I'm finna get my plea on
2:29I pray these wings strong enough to carry me on
2:31I promise every second felt as if it took an eon
2:34Walkin' like the lost boys of Sierra Leone
2:37The trail of tears what
2:38They got me like a Cherokee on
2:40Between the ears somethin' I require therapy on
2:42For the workin' to the bone like
2:44My name Robert Dion
2:45I go above and beyond
2:47The duty called truly y'all
2:48Even though they kind of
2:49Blew me off like a booty call
2:51Asked me if I'm just another muli or a movie star
2:54Forced to face the music like a graduate of Juilliard
2:56Walk alone talk alone get my Charlie Parker on
2:59Make my mark alone shed light upon the dark alone
3:02Get my sparkle on it's a mission I'm embarkin' on
3:05A kamikaze in the danger zone far from home
3:30Walk alone I walk alone you know I walk all alone
3:34I always been on my own
3:36Ever since the day I was born
3:39So I don't mind walkin' alone
3:41Walk alone I walk alone
3:42You know I walk all alone
3:45I always been on my own
3:47Ever since the day I was born
Trapped no shield no sword The unbeaten path got my soul so sore Allured by the lust Something money can't cure The Devil want me as is But God He want more Eyes closed eyes open Great another day here we go Like a ni**a woke up late in The Truman Show Livin' life without a care mean poker face But I'm forced to play solitaire 'til I get up out of here Move like a wanted man with a bounty on his head Work alone sleep alone Eat alone daily bread Countin' till my fingers' red How you gon' judge a man Walkin' in the shoes of a man with a broken leg Flame on the trail headed for the powder keg Last place in the race I ain't never led Like I ain't never bled Time to get up out of bed Servin' in the army of one it's on again Walk alone I walk alone You know I walk all alone I always been on my own ever since The day I was born So I don't mind walkin' alone Walk alone I walk alone You know I walk all alone I always been on my own ever since The day I was born So I don't mind walkin' alone I'm in a chess match I'm in a death trap I'm tryin' to find out Where the eggs in the nest at I'm one blood when the sky turns jet black No love in the world can correct that I'm in a slow lane I'm on my Cobain I'm in the new spot tryin' to run a old game I got a new chick put out my old flame No peace no sleep no love for a young beast You can put me in a cage You can put me in the jungle Where the lion get blazed There ain't no hell like the hell I raise I'd die in the bed I made 'fore I lay with a love I loathe I'm a snake in the garden of bones I'm a loner in a world of clones I'm the piece that don't belong see I roam Where the the Reaper roam 'til They put my name on a stone Walk alone I walk alone You know I walk all alone I always been on My own ever since the day I was born So I don't mind walkin' alone Walk alone I walk alone You know I walk all alone I always been on my own ever since The day I was born So I don't mind walkin' alone The longest walk I'll probably ever be on The Road to Perdition Guess I'm finna get my plea on I pray these wings strong enough to carry me on I promise every second felt as if it took an eon Walkin' like the lost boys of Sierra Leone The trail of tears what They got me like a Cherokee on Between the ears somethin' I require therapy on For the workin' to the bone like My name Robert Dion I go above and beyond The duty called truly y'all Even though they kind of Blew me off like a booty call Asked me if I'm just another muli or a movie star Forced to face the music like a graduate of Juilliard Walk alone talk alone get my Charlie Parker on Make my mark alone shed light upon the dark alone Get my sparkle on it's a mission I'm embarkin' on A kamikaze in the danger zone far from home Walk alone I walk alone you know I walk all alone I always been on my own Ever since the day I was born So I don't mind walkin' alone Walk alone I walk alone You know I walk all alone I always been on my own Ever since the day I was born
