[Intro – soft, eerie, almost whispered]
I hear it…
Even when it’s quiet…
It don’t stop…
[Verse 1 – restrained rap, building tension]
Static in my head, I can’t dial it down
Every thought loud when there’s no one around
Try to breathe slow but it don’t feel right
Every shadow in the room wanna turn to a fight
I’m stuck in a loop, yeah I replay the past
Every bad moment, it just plays back fast
You see me smile but it’s all for show
Got a war inside that you’ll never know
ADHD got my brain on spin
Try to lock in focus but I cave right in
Then the trauma hits like a sudden attack
One small trigger and I’m mentally cracked
[Pre-Chorus – melodic, rising]
I tried to explain, but you don’t hear me
You see my face but you don’t see me
[Chorus – BIG, emotional, screamed/sung]
YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT I FIGHT
EVERY DAY, EVERY NIGHT
TRY TO RUN FROM THE PAIN
BUT IT’S BUILT IN MY BRAIN
I’M BREAKING DOWN INSIDE
NOWHERE LEFT TO HIDE
SCREAM IT OUT BUT I’M DEAD
JUST STATIC IN MY HEAD
[Verse 2 – more aggressive rap]
Snap like a wire when the pressure spikes
Say I’m overreacting, yeah that’s what you like
But you don’t feel the weight that I carry daily
You don’t see the thoughts that are trying to break me
I get mad, then I hate who I am
Lose control, then I don’t give a damn
Push people out then I beg ‘em to stay
Yeah I’m stuck in that cycle, it don’t go away
Mind racing fast like I’m chasing escape
But it circles back, there’s no way to break
Try to stand strong but I’m close to the edge
Every step forward got me hanging by a thread
[Pre-Chorus – stronger this time]
You hear my words but you twist them wrong
I’ve been fighting this battle too damn long
[Chorus – heavier, layered vocals]
YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT I FIGHT
EVERY DAY, EVERY NIGHT
TRY TO RUN FROM THE PAIN
BUT IT’S BUILT IN MY BRAIN
I’M BREAKING DOWN INSIDE
NOWHERE LEFT TO HIDE
SCREAM IT OUT BUT I’M DEAD
JUST STATIC IN MY HEAD
[Breakdown – slow, crushing, screamed]
TRAPPED IN MY MIND
CAN’T ESCAPE
EVERY MEMORY
STARTS TO WAKE
NO CONTROL
LOSE MYSELF
FIGHTING ME
SOMEONE HELP
[Bridge – soft, emotional contrast]
If I told you the truth would you run away?
If you saw inside would you even stay?
I don’t wanna be this way…
I just don’t know how to change…
[Final Chorus – biggest, most emotional]
YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT I FIGHT
EVERY DAY, EVERY NIGHT
TRY TO RUN FROM THE PAIN
BUT IT’S BUILT IN MY BRAIN
I’M SCREAMING OUT MY SOUL
BUT I’M LOSING CONTROL
ALL THE WORDS LEFT UNSAID
JUST STATIC IN MY HEAD
[Outro – fading, quiet]
It never stops…
Even when I’m silent…
