[Intro]
Trying to find the light when the shadows creep,
Sober’s a mountain that’s way too steep.
Late nights whisper secrets I won’t keep,
Fading dreams, oh, they cut me deep.
[Verse 1]
I’m sneaking 'round the corners, chasing ghosts,
Thought I’d left it behind, now I’m stuck like a host.
Heart heavy like it's filled with rocks,
Every puff like a thief, stealing time on the clock.
I know they see through my disguise,
But the truth’s tangled up in all my lies.
I’m fighting with my demons, but they dance in my mind,
Searching for the hope I can hardly find.
[Pre-Chorus]
What’s it gonna take to break these chains?
Every high is a storm, and I’m lost in the rain.
Trying to breathe, but the smoke’s too thick,
How do I mend this heart, can someone show me the trick?
[Chorus]
I’m tired of the madness, I’m tired of the game,
Searching for a four-leaf clover, but it’s all just the same.
Wanna hold my baby close and show her the way,
But I’m trapped in the battle, night turns into day.
[Verse 2]
Single mother shoulders falling under the weight,
Chasing dreams for my kids but I’m running late.
Criminal records stain the hopes I had,
And every time I fall, it drives me mad.
Gotta stay strong for my little one,
Teach her to rise, make the darkness come undone.
And the cops keep creeping, knocking down the door,
But I swear on my love, this is all I want more.
[Pre-Chorus]
What’s it gonna take to turn my life around?
Every siren screams, echoing the sound.
Yearning for the freedom I can hardly reach,
But I’m tangled in this struggle, stuck in this breach.
[Chorus]
I’m tired of the madness, I’m tired of the game,
Searching for a four-leaf clover, but it’s all just the same.
Wanna hold my baby close and show her the way,
But I’m trapped in the battle, night turns into day.
[Bridge]
Days fade like the smoke, dreams barely alive,
But there’s a flicker inside, I’m starting to strive.
Hope on the horizon, a glimmering sign,
One step at a time, I’ll rewrite the lines.
[Outro]
So here’s to the mamas, and battles we fight,
We’ll find our tomorrow, we’ll step into the light.
With love as our armor, we’ll break every tether,
Chasing down our dreams, we’ll rise up together.
