(Intro)
Yeah…
Sometimes it’s dark inside,
But I still rise.
(Verse 1)
I been fightin’ demons that don’t sleep,
Silent battles runnin’ way too deep,
Smilin’ outside, but inside I break,
Tryna hold it down with all I can take.
Anxiety ridin’ like a shadow I know,
Tryna keep pace but my heartbeat slow,
Thoughts get loud when the room too quiet,
Mind in a warzone, soul stay defiant.
Therapy sessions, I ain’t scared to speak,
Tears in my eyes, strength lookin’ weak,
But it takes guts just to say I’m not fine,
I’m fightin’ for peace on this battlefield mind.
(Hook)
Mental health — yeah, we all got scars,
Some inside, some behind gold bars,
If you feel lost, you ain’t alone in the fight,
We walk through the dark just to find that light.
(Verse 2)
I know pain that money can’t fix,
Fame don’t help when you feelin’ like this,
People say “chin up”, but they don’t understand,
Sometimes I just need a heart, not a hand.
Pressure on my back like a hundred-pound vest,
Tryna breathe deep but there’s weight on my chest,
Social media lies, got us all pretendin’,
Feelin’ low-key, while the likes keep trendin’.
But I’m speakin’ out, not ashamed of the truth,
This for the kids and the troubled youth,
You’re not broken, you just got a storm,
And storms make legends — that’s how heroes are born.
(Hook)
Mental health — yeah, we all got scars,
Some inside, some behind gold bars,
If you feel lost, you ain’t alone in the fight,
We walk through the dark just to find that light.
(Bridge)
It’s okay to cry, it’s okay to feel,
It’s okay to hurt, it’s okay to heal,
Speak up loud, don’t let it consume ya,
The world gets better when we see through the rumor.
(Outro)
So I rap for the silent, the ones in pain,
The ones who wake up and try again,
You got this — yeah, we all need help,
You ain’t weak, you just bein’ yourself.
