[Verse]
Rain on my hoodie, drowning in the gray,
Heart heavy, bricks stacked, can't find a way.
Streetlights flicker, shadows start to sway,
Tomorrow feels distant, lost in today.
[Chorus]
Pain got me locked in a cage I can't break,
Dreams shatter loud, hear the echo, it aches.
Tears on the mic, every bar’s a heartbreak,
Writing out my soul for the world to take.
[Verse 2]
Memory’s a blade, cuts deep in the night,
Past chasing me down, I’m too tired to fight.
Used to see the stars, now they dimmed their light,
Searching for a spark in a world painted white.
[Bridge]
They tell me to climb, but my hands feel raw,
Every step higher, another downfall.
Heart on my sleeve, stitched with every flaw,
Trying to stand tall, but I’m just too small.
[Chorus]
Pain got me locked in a cage I can't break,
Dreams shatter loud, hear the echo, it aches.
Tears on the mic, every bar’s a heartbreak,
Writing out my soul for the world to take.
[Outro]
Maybe these words will reach someone’s ear,
Maybe they'll feel me, maybe they'll care.
Until then, I bleed out, pen writes my despair,
Leaving pieces of me in the cold night air.
