[Verse]
Spill on the page, heart's unloading the freight—
Carrying the weight, knuckles bloody from the crate.
Broken glass in my shadow, jagged echoes vibrate,
Clock hands spin backwards, still I face my fate.
Every step feels borrowed, threads unravel my coat,
Hunger gnawing my stomach; I been swallowing hope.
The ghosts talk—whisper in my mirror and provoke,
Making a rope out of silence just to tighten my throat.
[Chorus]
The weight, it pulls me down until I soar,
Wounds heavy, but I’m lighter in the core.
Break me—watch the ashes hit the floor,
The weight, the weight—it’s what I'm fighting for.
[Verse 2]
Scar tissue a map, where I’ve been scars the air,
Tried to leave the pain behind, but I take it everywhere.
Past creeping in my veins like venom unaware,
Singed wings sewn back, though the flames still flare.
I wear my grief like armor, cold metal’s my resolve,
My problems orbit closer but the answers won’t evolve.
Tongue twisted, venom kisses, sins dissolve,
Every win paid in tears, yet the cost's unresolved.
[Prechorus]
The shadows chase where the light won’t speak,
The echoes quake when the heart feels weak—
But oh, oh, hear the storms we keep.
