[Verse]
Chains on my wrist, but I broke 'em to rust,
Used to chase highs, now I'm building up trust.
Eyes hollowed out, seen a ghost in the glass,
Every step forward, they drag me to the past.
Scars on my knuckles, I fought through the pit,
Told 'em I’m clean, but they won't let it quit.
Their whispers a chorus, my sins on replay,
Tryna climb higher, but they pull me to yesterday.
[Prechorus]
Echoes of shadow, they follow my stride,
Skeletons scream while I’m tryna survive.
[Chorus]
I’m not who I was, I burned that disguise,
Phoenix from ashes, I rise, I rise.
Don’t need your reminders, your chains or your doubt,
Shadow’s echo fades, I’m shutting it out.
[Verse 2]
Needles in veins like a serpent's kiss,
Took my own grave but I climbed outta this.
Bloodshot eyes now stare at the sun,
Fought my own demons, I already won.
Still, they whisper, "He ain't really changed,"
Pointin' at cracks like my soul’s still deranged.
But they don't see the fire in my core,
Not just surviving—I’m waging a war.
