[Verse 1]
I used to shine, I used to glow
Every smile, they’d stop and show
Too handsome to fall, too proud to know
That charm fades fast when you're broke and low
Fell for a dream, spent all I had
Tried to impress, but the choices were bad
Supplements, nights, and debts on my name
The more I gave, the more I became...
[Pre-Chorus]
My sister left, my daughter grew
And I missed it all chasing something untrue
The mirrors lied, the praise was loud
But deep inside, I was breaking down
[Chorus]
🎵
If I could go back
Erase it all and change the track
I'd pay for every scar I made
Every lie and every game I played
If I could go back
Be the man I swore I’d never lack
But now it's just dust and pain
And a heart still whispering my shame
🎵
[Verse 2]
The house was loud, but my soul was mute
Surrounded by noise, but empty of truth
Fired from the job I once held high
Now I’m just a memory passing by
Friends moved on, with degrees in hand
And I stood still, too weak to stand
No control, no plan, just fear
Smiling outside, hiding tears
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now I sleep at my mother’s place
My daughter’s smile, my saving grace
She says “Daddy, are you okay?”
And I just pray…
[Chorus]
🎵
If I could go back
Erase it all and change the track
I'd pay for every scar I made
Every lie and every game I played
If I could go back
Be the man I swore I’d never lack
But now it's just dust and pain
And a heart still whispering my shame
🎵
[Bridge]
I walk alone and dream so loud
Of a life where I can make them proud
Where debts are paid and I’m finally free
To be who I’m meant to be
[Final Chorus – soft, hopeful]
🎵
But maybe I can still change
Even if the past remains
I'll pay for all I left behind
With better days and a clearer mind
I may not go back
But I’ll fight to fix every crack
I’ll rise from this broken name
And turn my sorrow into flame
🎵
