Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was just eight when the hammer fell,
A shotgun’s roar, a farewell bell.
Mama’s screams cut through the air,
But no one knew how to repair.
[Chorus]
They call it sickness, they call it shame,
But no one ever speaks his name.
Truth got buried, left to rust,
Daddy’s shadow, it walks with us.
[Verse 2]
Every corner of this house still creaks,
With words he didn’t get to speak.
I wore his boots, tried to fill his stride,
But they never fit, no matter how I tried.
[Prechorus]
The world sees cracks, calls them sin,
But they don’t ask what broke within.
[Chorus]
They call it sickness, they call it shame,
But no one ever speaks his name.
Truth got buried, left to rust,
Daddy’s shadow, it walks with us.
[Bridge]
In the mirror, I see his face,
A map of hurt I can’t erase.
His fight’s now mine, I carry the load,
A heavy heart on a lonesome road.
