Same Faces

Yeah… new city, same pain,

Different lights, but it still rains.

Thought I’d find peace when I left that place,

But it’s the same faces in a brand-new space.

Different places but the same faces,

Memory fading, everything overrated.

Tryna start fresh but I’m jaded,

Another sunrise, still feel sedated.

I thought change would heal the hurt inside,

But I’m haunted by the ghosts I tried to hide.

Every corner feels like déjà vu,

Different block, same point of view.

They say it’s better now than it was then,

But I don’t see peace, just violence again.

Every newsflash got me losin’ my faith,

Feelin’ like I’m trapped in a hopeless place.

It’s like I’m relivin’ the same day over,

Can’t find closure, the pain grows colder.

I don’t know when this hell will be over,

Wish everybody would just calm down, sober.

I’m searchin’ for light in this endless town,

But every turn keeps bringin’ me down.

New zip code, same old stress,

People dress nice but their minds a mess.

Smiles fake, hearts on defense,

Everyone talkin’, nobody makes sense.

I’m tryna find truth in a world that lies,

But even the calm got thunder skies.

I moved to escape, not to run away,

But maybe peace just don’t wanna stay.

Can’t lie, I miss the old me,

Before the world stole my energy.

Maybe someday I’ll finally see,

That peace ain’t a place, it’s inside of me.

I’m relivin’ the same day over,

But maybe I’ll rise when it’s all over.

If the world won’t calm, I’ll find my ground,

I won't let nobody stop me now,

‘Cause I’m done lettin’ chaos drag me down.
