Verse 1
2025 tried to break my spine,
Bills on the dash, stress on my mind,
Sleepless nights, staring at walls,
Felt like the universe missed my calls.
I gave my heart, got scars in return,
Trusted too much, watched bridges burn,
Carried the weight like it’s just my role,
Smiling outside with a cracked-up soul.
Pre-Chorus
Yeah I bent but I didn’t snap,
Life swung hard, I swung right back,
If pain’s the price for leveling up,
Then pour it strong — fill my cup.
Chorus
2025, yeah you kicked my ass,
Took my breath, tried to make it last,
But I’m still here, still alive,
Still got fire in my eyes.
So goodbye pain, I’m cutting loose,
2026 — I’ve got nothing to lose,
Mark my words, this is my year,
I’m gonna kill it — crystal clear.
Verse 2
Lost some friends, found my truth,
Hard lessons I paid for in proof,
Every setback wrote my name,
In the book of scars, in the hall of pain.
I walked alone when it got real quiet,
Heard my demons start a riot,
But something in me wouldn’t quit,
Even when I felt done with it.
Pre-Chorus
They didn’t see the nights I prayed,
The deals I lost, the price I paid,
I learned who’s real, who’s just noise,
Now I move like I’ve got a choice.
Chorus
2025, yeah you kicked my ass,
Tried to bury me in the past,
But I’m still here, still breathing strong,
Still standing when it all went wrong.
So goodbye fear, I’m breaking through,
2026 — I’m coming for you,
Head held high, no regrets,
I’m gonna kill it — place your bets.
Bridge
This ain’t luck, this is survival,
Built from pain, forged in trial,
I don’t need permission now,
Watch me rise — just watch me now.
Final Chorus / Outro
2025 made me who I am,
Not the fall — but how I land,
New year, new gear, new mindset,
This comeback ain’t done yet.
So here’s to me, to scars and wins,
To second chances, fresh begins,
2026 — hear my name, John’s going to kill it — remember the flame
