[Style: Rap / Pop-rap with cinematic undertones Emotional intensity, dynamic flow Dark piano chords, strings, soft hi-hats building tension Occasional vocal layering on hooks for impact] [Theme: Loss of identity, regret, mental spiral Heart on your sleeve but feeling unseen Searching for your “self” after fear and trauma] [Intro] Yeah… I don’t even know who I am right now Hands on my heart, but it don’t feel like mine [Verse 1] Mirror’s telling stories I don’t recognize Eyes of a stranger staring back in disguise Three years gone, still haunted by the loss Everything I touch, it comes with a cost Birth parents gave up, parents split, I sit and wonder why Ex walked out, heart left in the sky Now I’m with her, my light, my better half But my mind keeps dragging me down this dark path I fake it at work, smile like I’m fine Managers call me Billy B when I snap, they don’t see inside Laughs break the tension, but my soul still bleeds Trying to do right, but the past plants seeds Fear whispers loud, doubt screams even louder Self-worth is low, and my confidence shatters I pray, I read, I fight, I fall, I scream But my identity’s gone, like a broken dream [Pre-Chorus] I wear my heart on my sleeve, but it’s cold The person I knew, I don’t even hold Lost in the loops of regret and despair Trying to breathe, trying to repair [Chorus] No longer me, who am I supposed to be? I’m standing here, but I can’t see The boy I was, the man I wanted Fighting fear, I feel haunted No longer me, my past won’t let me free But I’m still here, and I’ll find the key Even if it hurts, even if I bleed I’ll wear my heart, but I’ll reclaim me [Verse 2] Christmas felt cold, family distant, friends far away I smile for them, but inside I sway Mental battles, nights spent awake Counting my faults, mistakes I can’t shake Thought about disappearing, just for a while But then I see her face, and I reconcile With the fact I’m flawed, scared, yet alive I’ll punch through the doubt, I’ll fight to survive I’ve lost my grip on who I should be But maybe that’s life, it’s part of the journey I stumble, I fall, I spiral, I cry I ask God for strength, I don’t know why But the boy in the mirror, I’ll meet him again Patch up the cracks, let the light in [Pre-Chorus] I wear my heart on my sleeve, but it’s cold The person I knew, I don’t even hold Lost in the loops of regret and despair Trying to breathe, trying to repair [Chorus] No longer me, who am I supposed to be? I’m standing here, but I can’t see The boy I was, the man I wanted Fighting fear, I feel haunted No longer me, my past won’t let me free But I’m still here, and I’ll find the key Even if it hurts, even if I bleed I’ll wear my heart, but I’ll reclaim me [Bridge] Fear can hit, regret can bite But I’ll get back up, even in the night I’ll wrestle my shadows, I’ll swing for my soul Heart on my sleeve, that’s how I’ll take control [Outro] No longer me, but I’ll find me Through the pain, through the fear, I’ll remind me I’m scared of me
