Breaking the chains

Woke up this morning, but it felt like a fight,

Mind in the shadows, can’t find the light.

Thoughts spinning in circles, it’s hard to breathe,

Trapped in a cage, can’t even believe.

The weight on my chest, it won’t let go,

Wishing for peace, but it’s all moving slow.

Anxiety’s loud, depression’s so deep,

Feelin’ like I’m drowning while I’m supposed to sleep.

Every day’s a battle, but I’m stuck in this game,

I’m tryin’ to heal, but the pain feels the same.

I’m callin’ for help, but it’s quiet in here,

I’m fightin’ the silence, still trapped in the fear.

I’m lost in my mind, don’t know where to turn,

Tired of the fire that I can’t even burn.

Anxiety’s grip got me locked in a cage,

But I’m still fightin’, tryin’ to turn the page.

Depression’s a shadow that’s cloudin’ my days,

But I’m still breathin’, still findin’ my ways.

I’m walkin’ through hell but I’m holdin’ my ground,

I’ll keep pushin’ through ‘til the light’s found.

Tears on the pillow, thoughts on replay,

Wonderin’ how I’m gon’ make it through the day.

The mirror’s reflection don’t recognize me,

Trapped in my head, but I’m just tryna be free.

I know it’s okay to not be okay,

But the storm in my chest don’t fade away.

I keep putting on masks, pretending I’m fine,

But behind closed doors, I’m lost in time.

Every step’s heavy, like I’m draggin’ a weight,

Tryna find a way out, but I’m lost in this state.

But I won’t give in, won’t let this define,

I’m fightin’ for peace, and I’m takin’ back mine.

I’m lost in my mind, don’t know where to turn,

Tired of the fire that I can’t even burn.

Anxiety’s grip got me locked in a cage,

But I’m still fightin’, tryin’ to turn the page.

Depression’s a shadow that’s cloudin’ my days,

But I’m still breathin’, still findin’ my ways.

I’m walkin’ through hell but I’m holdin’ my ground,

I’ll keep pushin’ through ‘til the light’s found.

I’m breakin’ the silence, I’m learnin’ to heal,

The scars on my soul, they don’t dictate what’s real.

Each step’s a battle, but I’m findin’ my grace,

Every crack in the armor’s a part of the chase.

I’m lost in my mind, don’t know where to turn,

But I’ll rise from the ashes, I’ll let myself burn.

Anxiety’s grip got me locked in a cage,

But I’m still fightin’, tryin’ to turn the page.

Depression’s a shadow that’s cloudin’ my days,

But I’m still breathin’, still findin’ my ways.

I’m walkin’ through hell but I’m holdin’ my ground,

I’ll keep pushin’ through, ‘til the light’s found.

I’ll keep pushin’ through, yeah, I’ll find my way,

One step at a time, every single day.

I won’t let the dark take my heart, take my soul,

I’m breakin’ the chains, I’m takin’ control.
