[Intro]
Yeah, streets cold, mind colder, struggles got me on my knees,
Everyday a battle, fighting to breathe, trying to find peace.
[Verse 1]
Broken glass on the sidewalk, stories untold,
Empty stomachs, dreams sold for coins, life’s harsh, hold on.
Skyline draped in gray, hope fades with the dawn,
Screams in the alleyway, pain’s a familiar song.
Fingers stained with dirt, hearts heavy as stone,
Trying to make a dollar, but your soul’s overthrown.
System failing us, leaves us in the dark,
Living life on the edge, just trying to leave our mark.
Bills piling high, stress that’s relentless,
Every step I take, war within, instinct to be expressionless.
Came from the gutter, path is rough and rugged,
Struggling to survive, mind’s tangled, feelings thudded.
Frustration, oppression, a chorus of despair,
But deep down I hear a voice saying, “Stay there.”
[Verse 2]
Addiction’s a trap, got me chasing that high,
Mind spiraling downward, tears I can't deny.
Wrong turns, dark nights, chasing fleeting pleasure,
Lost in the maze, searching for some kind of measure.
Inner battles raging, hope’s slipping away,
Fighting demons daily, trying to find the light of day.
Pain manifests in different ways, scars unseen,
Every scar tells a story of where I’ve been.
Fighting to break free, to avoid the fall,
Feeling trapped, helpless, yet I still call.
Searching for redemption in the midst of chaos,
Trying to rebuild, even with the loss.
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t let the darkness define who I am,
Gotta rise from the ashes, got to take a stand.
Hold on through the storm, face the night,
There’s a spark within, ready to ignite.
[Chorus]
Pain weighs heavy, but I keep pushing through,
Struggles define us, but they don’t define what we do.
In the depths of despair, I find my strength,
Fighting for a better day, no matter the length.
We all got battles, some silent, some loud,
Keep your head high, stand tall, be proud.
Pain comes and goes, but hope’s a flame,
Keep walking forward, chase your name.
[Verse 3]
Depression’s a shadow that tries to grip tight,
But I seek the dawn, embrace the fight.
Inner strength grows in the darkest night,
Climbing out of the hole, searching for the light.
Life’s pressure can crush, make you wanna give in,
But resilience blooms when the soul’s within.
Family, faith, dreams to chase,
Help me find my footing, restore my grace.
Take each day as it comes, breathe in deep,
Hold onto hope, even when it’s hard to keep.
Remember, pain is temporary, scars tell stories,
Endure the storm, turn pain into glory.
[Outro]
Yeah, streets will test us, life’s a brutal game,
But within the struggle, we find our flame.
Hold on to hope, don’t let it fade,
Tomorrow’s a new day, a brighter shade.
Keep fighting, stay strong, believe in you,
Stars shine brightest in the darkest hue.
