Concrete Rose

Intro

Yeah…

Pain made me quiet

But I’m still here

Verse 1

Grew up hearing I’d never be enough

Every word hit hard, every silence rough

Taught to hide my tears, keep my guard tight

Smiling in the day, breaking every night

No one taught me love, just shame and fear

Learned my body through pain, not care

Pre-Chorus

I was fighting demons in a locked-up mind

Trying to survive in borrowed time

Hook / Chorus (Main)

I’m a concrete rose

Growing through the cracks they left in my soul

They tried to bury me under control

But I’m still here, yeah I’m still whole

Pain made me numb, I wore it close

Fake it to make it—concrete rose

Verse 2

Pills felt like heaven, turned into hell

Mind in a cell, couldn’t save myself

Looking for love where it don’t exist

Numb to the touch, just tryna feel something real

I carried peace for everybody else

While I was drowning, crying to myself

Bridge (Half-Time / Drop)

If I tell the truth, will you walk away?

Or will you see I’m just tryna be okay?

I’m healing slow, but I’m healing now

Still standing tall, even breaking down

Final Hook (Repeat / Stronger)

I’m a concrete rose

Growing through the cracks they left in my soul

They tried to bury me under control

But I’m still here, yeah I’m still whole

Pain made me numb, I wore it close

No more hiding—concrete rose
