[Verse]
Knuckles raw, punching shadows in my head
Boxing demons, they feast where angels fear to tread
Thoughts scatter, shattered glass in my dome
Home feels foreign, like a king without a throne
Eyes heavy, sandbags under my stare
Nightmares creeping, they pull me from the air
Caged bird songs, but the melody cracked
Hope whispers soft, but despair pulls it back
[Chorus]
Shadowboxing my mind, trying not to fall
Every crack in my armor, I’m patching them all
Stress tries to drown me, emotions on the brink
But I’ll fight ‘til I’m empty, not letting myself sink
[Verse 2]
Heart a battlefield, grenades in my chest
Stress loads the clip, emotions wearing a vest
Tears dry slow, salt stains on the floor
I build a castle of doubt, then knock down the door
Clock ticks loud, time screaming in my ear
Future looks foggy, but the fight’s crystal clear
Dark thoughts swarm, locusts clouding my sky
But giving up’s a language my soul won’t comply
[Bridge]
Echoes of failure bounce off these walls
But echoes ain't truth, they just mimic the calls
I’ll wrestle this weight, even when it feels cruel
The mind’s a wild beast, but I’ll tame it, my tool
