Born into a world where I felt unseen,
A silent child with broken dreams.
Laughter echoed, but it never stayed,
Nobody listened to the words I couldn’t say.
I was the black sheep, lost in the crowd,
Hiding my pain where it wasn’t allowed.
Tried to find love, but it wasn’t at home,
An island of sorrow where I stood alone.
[Chorus]
Nobody understood the ache in my soul,
A heart so heavy, it swallowed me whole.
Through the darkness, I learned to survive,
But I’m still searching for the reason I’m alive.
[Verse 2]
Teenage years came like a storm at sea,
Depression’s grip tightening on me.
Bruises on my body, scars in my mind,
I looked for escape but none I could find.
Mama’s words were sharp, they cut me deep,
Echoing louder every night I couldn’t sleep.
Praying for a savior, but silence replied,
Just me and my pain, side by side.
[Chorus]
Nobody understood the ache in my soul,
A heart so heavy, it swallowed me whole.
Through the darkness, I learned to survive,
But I’m still searching for the reason I’m alive.
[Verse 3]
A father’s love, just a fleeting dream,
He was never there, just a shadow unseen.
But when he came, it was me who had to care,
Playing the parent, though life wasn’t fair.
I wiped his tears, held him when he fell,
Tried to save him from his personal hell.
A child with the weight of the world to bear,
Taking care of a man who was never there.
[Bridge]
The only light was Grandma’s embrace,
Her love a shelter, a sacred place.
She held my heart in her fragile hands,
But life took her to another land.
Now the void grows deeper, the nights grow cold,
Without her love, I’m left to hold
Memories that sting, but keep me near,
A fragile whisper I still hear.
[Chorus]
Nobody understood the ache in my soul,
A heart so heavy, it swallowed me whole.
Through the darkness, I learned to survive,
But I’m still searching for the reason I’m alive.
[Outro]
I carry her love like a faded flame,
Through all the torment, I shoulder the pain.
Still the black sheep, but I try to stand,
With her spirit guiding my trembling hand.
I’m still here, though I’ve lost my way,
Holding on to hope for a brighter day.
