[Intro]
Shadows creeping in, can't hide from the guilt within
Lost in the mirror's lie, chasing ghosts of who I am
[Verse 1]
Mirrors cracked, reflections shattered wide
Lies I told, the love I denied
Took and broke, with no remorse in sight
Carrying the weight of endless night
[Pre-Chorus]
But deep down I know I can't escape
The echoes of my own mistakes
Can’t hide from the pain I made
It’s time to face today
[Chorus]
I’m breaking free from the chains I’ve made
Learning to forgive, now I won’t be afraid
Picking up the pieces I threw away
Step by step, I’ll find a new way
[Verse 2]
Shame's heavy cloak, I’ve worn so long
But slowly I see where I went wrong
Apologies whispered in the dark
Building bridges with the spark
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s a journey from despair to hope
Walking the road I once couldn’t cope
Every scar I own, a story told
A heart reclaimed, no longer cold
[Chorus]
I’m breaking free from the chains I’ve made
Learning to forgive, now I won’t be afraid
Picking up the pieces I threw away
Step by step, I’ll find a new way
[Bridge]
From ashes I rise, with humble eyes
Facing my truth, no more disguise
The love I lost, now I see the cost
In the mirror, I’ve been found
[Outro]
Now I stand, forgiven and free
Owning my past, setting myself free
With every step, I choose to be
A better man in my own story
