Shadows and True Hearts

Shadows lurking, whispering lies

Trying to break me, tear me apart inside

Bullshit's silent in the hallways of my mind

Snake eyes glinting, just another game confined

Fake smiles, hidden knives, trying to deceive

But I see through the masks, I refuse to believe

Caught in the middle, the struggle is real

Fighting for freedom, trying to heal

Everyone wants a piece of me, what’s true, what’s fake?

In this war, I’m fighting for my own sake

Dealing with the connivers sneaking in the night

But I got the ones who truly stand in the fight

Loving me, caring deep, keeping me upright

In this chaos, they’re my anchor, shining bright

Manipulators circle, their words like venom shot

Trying to twist the truth, turn love into a lot

Pleasing everyone, a never-ending chase

Losing myself in this frantic race

But I hear the voices that keep me sane

Truth and love, they break through the pain

Though the snakes are biting, I will stand tall

Roots deep in hope, never gonna fall

Dealing with the connivers sneaking in the night

But I got the ones who truly stand in the fight

Loving me, caring deep, keeping me upright

In this chaos, they’re my anchor, shining bright

No more shadows, no more disguise

Real hearts are the prize in these lies

Fight to keep what’s true, what’s pure

With the real ones, I endure

In this storm, I find my strength

From genuine love, I’ll go the length

No more games, just honesty’s call

With my true ones, I stand tall
