Verse 1 (Rap):
Listen close, I got a story to tell
‘Bout a father’s love that fell short of the bell
You said you loved me, but it felt like a lie
Different for my siblings, they got the sky
I was left in the dark, searching for a light
Approval and validation, day and night
But it was hard to find, so I took a wrong turn
Into a life I never wanted, but it’s where I learned
Chorus (Rock):
Can’t you own your truth?
Why did you love me differently?
I’m breaking free from the chains
Finding my way, no more pain
Verse 2 (Rap):
I became something I never wanted to be
A life I didn’t choose, but it was all I could see
A sex worker, just to survive
But deep down, I was dying, couldn’t thrive
I needed your love, your support and care
But it was absent, leaving me with nothing to share
I worked hard to walk away from that life
To find my own path, to cut through the strife
Chorus (Rock):
Can’t you own your truth?
Why did you love me differently?
I’m breaking free from the chains
Finding my way, no more pain
Bridge (Rock/Rap):
I’m not the same person, I’ve grown and I’ve learned
I’m finding my voice, my heart is now concerned
With healing and moving forward, not looking back
I’m taking control, no more cracks
Chorus (Rock):
Can’t you own your truth?
Why did you love me differently?
I’m breaking free from the chains
Finding my way, no more pain
Outro (Rap/Rock):
Now I’m standing tall, I’m not falling down
I’m owning my truth, wearing my crown
I’m moving forward, leaving the past behind
Finding my own love, my own peace of mind.
This song combines the emotional depth of rock with the storytelling of rap, reflecting on themes of family, identity, and personal growth.
