(Intro – tense, whispered)
Yeah…
My brain been runnin’ marathons I never signed up for…
But I’m still here.
Listen—
(Verse 1)
I’m in a fistfight with my thoughts again, boxed-in oxygen,
Mind talkin’ toxic, I’m tryna shut the gossip in.
Heart doin’ drum solos, panic on the pockets in—
Every single second feelin’ like a bomb droppin’ in.
Stress on my chest like a vise grip locked to my ribs,
Tellin’ me I’m nothin’, like “Who you really think you is?”
Man, I been battlin’ these shadows since I was a kid,
Tryna stitch the pieces back from every tear that they ripped.
My reflection talkin’ reckless—yeah, I argue with it daily,
Brain spinnin’ like a disc, thoughts glitchin’ out crazy.
Tell fear “you don’t pay rent, why you tryna stay lately?”
Every breakdown made me—yeah, it didn’t break me.
(Hook)
Mind over chaos—fk a meltdown, I’m still standin’.
Pressure in my skull but I’m turnin’ it to an anthem.
Voices in my head throw punches that I block now—
I been through hell, but I’m crawlin’ my way back out.
Mind over chaos—hold on when the lights fade.
Even when I lost faith, I still found a fight blade.
Told the world “wait”—I ain’t finished with the climb yet,
Diamonds only shine ‘cause they cut through the mindset.
(Verse 2)
Yo, I been hidin’ all my pain behind a grin like it’s a costume,
Feelin’ like my heartbeat’s a bomb tickin’ in a small room.
Thoughts ricochet—every fear tryin’ to resume,
But I slam the door shut like “Nah, not today, dude.”
Anxiety’s a bully that don’t ever take a day off,
But I swing back harder—rip its motherf***in’ face off.
Tired of the chaos—tired of the weight tossed,
But I’m buildin’ from the breakdowns, turnin’ every loss to takeoff.
Told my demons “bring it,” I ain’t scared of what they’re sayin’,
If they wanna start a war, then I’m ready for the mayhem.
Yeah the nights get cold, but the courage I’m displayin’
Is the fire in my chest that keep the darkness from invadin’.
(Hook)
Mind over chaos—fk a meltdown, I’m still standin’.
Pressure in my skull but I’m turnin’ it to an anthem.
Voices in my head throw punches that I block now—
I been through hell, but I’m crawlin’ my way back out.
Mind over chaos—hold on when the lights fade.
Even when I lost faith, I still found a fight blade.
Told the world “wait”—I ain’t finished with the climb yet,
Diamonds only shine ‘cause they cut through the mindset.
(Bridge – emotional, cracked voice)
When the panic starts to riot like it’s burnin’ up the room,
I tell myself “breathe—this moment ain’t your doom.”
Yeah the scars still talk, but I don’t give ‘em any room…
I survived every night I thought I wouldn’t make it through.
(Outro)
So cheers to the souls that been fightin’ in silence,
To the ones who fall down but reload with defiance.
Chaos in the mind but the heart ain’t compliant—
We rise from the wreckage like a self-made giant.
