Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro (eerie)]Funny how they laugh… Till you stop laughing with ‘em… [Verse 1] I been smiling through pain like it’s all a joke Cracked mask on my face but it never broke Everybody sees me like I’m doing fine But they don’t see the war inside Got a past I replay like a broken scene Every wrong decision still controls me Every word I said I can’t undo Still echo back like they aimed at you They clap when you’re up, disappear when you fall Say they got your back, but they don’t at all So I learned real quick to hide my pain Turn a dark storm into light rain [Hook (haunting)] I smile like I’m fine, but I’m losing me Got a war in my mind that they never see They laugh at the pain, call it comedy But the joke ain’t funny when it’s cutting deep Yeah I smile like I’m fine, play the part again Hide the cracks, let ‘em think I’m a different man But the truth in the dark when I’m alone I don’t even recognize who I’ve become [Verse 2 (more intensity)] Now it’s getting louder, I can’t mute the sound All the doubt in my head keeps circling ‘round Saying “you the reason everything went wrong” “You been broken inside all along” I start believing what the voice might say Seeing my life in a darker way Losing grip on the man I was Questioning what all this pain is for I tried to fix it, tried to make it right But regret don’t fade, it just grows at night Like a shadow that sticks when lights go low Like a wound that heals but still won’t close [Hook (stronger)] I smile like I’m fine, but I’m losing me… [Bridge (stripped, emotional)] If I break, would they finally see? Would they care what’s inside of me? Or just laugh like they always do… Till I turn into something new… [Verse 3 (breaking point → awareness)] I ain’t trying to snap, just trying to cope Carrying this weight without losing hope But it’s hard when the past has a grip so tight And it pulls me back every time I fight Yeah I made mistakes, I own my wrongs More than the sum of what I did wrong Still trying to grow, still trying to change Even if I’m stuck in this mental cage I don’t wanna be what the pain creates Don’t wanna turn cold, don’t wanna hate So I fight that voice, even when it’s loud Even when it tries to drag me down [Final Hook (full emotion)] I smile like I’m fine, but I’m healing slow Every scar, every bruise, yeah it starts to show They can laugh all they want, they don’t know my fight I’ve been battling demons just to feel alright [Outro (soft, fading)] Funny how they only see what you show ‘em… Never what’s underneath it… I’ve been carrying this weight so long… I don’t even know who I was before it… Every mistake… every word… every scar… It don’t leave… Maybe it ain’t about forgetting… Maybe it’s about learning how to live with it… Learning how to stand… even when it’s heavy… Yeah… they can laugh… they can look… they can judge… They don’t hear the silence when I’m by myself… They don’t feel this… but I’m still here… Still fighting… still trying… still… smiling…
