[Verse 1]
Dust on my boots like ghosts on my soul
Baghdad heat left my heart with a hole
I hear the echoes they don’t let me sleep
War in my head where the memories creep
[Chorus]
Through the smoke I found a sound
Lifted me up when I hit the ground
The beats pulled me out of the fire’s embrace
Music saved me from the darkest place
[Verse 2]
Every night was a battle inside my mind
PTSD had me lost in time
I’d drown in a bottle just to numb the fight
But the rhythm hit hard brought me back to life
[Bridge]
Hands shaking from the weight I hold
But the mic’s my weapon I’m feeling bold
These bars are my therapy the truth I bleed
Music’s my savior it plants the seed
[Chorus]
Through the smoke I found a sound
Lifted me up when I hit the ground
The beats pulled me out of the fire’s embrace
Music saved me from the darkest place
[Verse 3]
Flashbacks cut like a razor blade
But the bassline heals where the pain was laid
I stand tall now with the scars I bear
The music whispers I’m still here
