Verse 1
I was 8, saw my mom laid down
Gang war crossfire, tears all around
Dad tried to cope, but lost his way
Robbery took him, now I'm alone each day
Chorus
Darkness follows, every step I take
Suicidal thoughts, my constant ache
Depression grips, like a deadly snake
Can't escape, this endless heartbreak
Verse 2
12 years old, felt so alone
Foster homes, but no place to call home
16, and the demons got strong
Tried to drown them, but they just moved along
Chorus
Darkness follows, every step I take
Suicidal thoughts, my constant ache
Depression grips, like a deadly snake
Can't escape, this endless heartbreak
Bridge
Fuck this life, it's been unfair
Lost loved ones, left with despair
Why the hell, did they have to leave?
Now I'm trapped, in this misery
Verse 3
18, still haunted, by the past
Trying to find, a way to last
But shadows linger, in every place
Reminding me, of the pain I face
Chorus
Darkness follows, every step I take
Suicidal thoughts, my constant ache
Depression grips, like a deadly snake
Can't escape, this endless heartbreak
Outro
Now I'm grown, but scars remain
Still fighting, this endless pain
Trying to rise, above the shame
But damned thoughts, still whisper my name
