[Intro]
Hold on, this is hard to say, but I need to find a way
Through shadows deep and fears so steep, for my children and my soul's keep
[Verse 1]
Scarlett, your smile lights my darkest night, you're my hope, my guiding light
Hunter, your strength, my pride and core, I’d fight through storms and even more
Charliee and Koa, pieces of my heart, your presence keeps me holding on, falling apart
Amara, my shining star, I swear I’d chase the sun just to make sure you’re never alone
[Pre-Chorus]
These fears, they poison me, I cry, I thunder inside, drowning in a sea of lies
Her face haunts my every night, cancer’s grip, her third fight, I pray
Shae, you are my peace, my love, I need you more than ever in this life
But I’m scared of being alone, with my thoughts, in this deathly zone
[Chorus]
I’m fighting battles inside this hollow heart, a deadly attack, a grim, dark part
Depression and sickness grip my soul, I’m losing control, can’t take the toll
But for my children, I’d brave the rain, face the pain, endure the deadly stain
This world is cold, I feel the death, but with your love, I’ll find my breath
[Bridge]
The sickness, the anxiety, it’s a poison in my veins, I cry out for clarity
But I’m trapped in this ghostly fight, seeking the light in the endless night
Suicidal thoughts try to win, but I fight to not give in, for their dreams within
Shae, you’re my strength, you’re my life, without you, I fear I might break
[Outro]
So here I stand, fragile and broken, words unspoken, hearts open
To my children, my love, my pain, I will fight through the rain, through every grim stain
And hope someday, in a better place, I’ll find my peace, see your smiling face
But till then, I’ll hold on tight, to love, to hope, to the fight
