Roach

Once trusted, now burned, left in debris

Your words, just shadows long gone, you see

A brother, a bond, now just ash and dust

All I feel now is betrayal's bitter gust

Shared secrets in the dark, believed in your lies

Thought I knew your soul, saw truth in your eyes

But behind that mask, a different face concealed

A stranger you revealed, now wounds that won't heal

Lost in the echoes of what we used to be

Now I see clearly, you're just a ghost haunting me

You played your part, but the curtain's been pulled

All your promises broken, all your stories null

You're a Roach, crawling in the filth of deceit

Thought you were my brother, now I feel the heat

Of betrayal burning through the core of my trust

Left in the darkness, betrayed and unjust

I don't need your shadow, I don't need your lies

Moving on from the ashes, under new skies

You can crawl and hide, far away from my view

No longer a brother, just someone I knew

Once called a friend, now just a stain

A reminder that trust can turn to pain

You're a Roach, a pest in my past

I stand tall, free at last
