Pieces of Me...

(Verse 1)

Mind's a battlefield, thoughts a raging sea

If I don't hold the reins, who's steering me?

Heart breaks like a wave, crashing on the shore

But from the wreckage, a vision starts to soar

(Chorus)

Let the past be dust, a memory I've outgrown

Peace with what was lost, a seed I've newly sown

Imagination's pain, a twisted, cruel design

Reality's embrace, a truth that will refine

(Verse 2)

Can't rewind the clock, no do-overs, that's the rule

But where I stand today, I'm taking back control

Time's a precious gift, don't let it slip away

Selfish with my moments, I won't pay the price to play

(Chorus)

Let the past be dust, a memory I've outgrown

Peace with what was lost, a seed I've newly sown

Imagination's pain, a twisted, cruel design

Reality's embrace, a truth that will refine

(Bridge)

Lonely whispers, doubts that creep inside

Toxic company, nowhere left to hide

But I'll rise above, learn from every fall

Sometimes I win, sometimes I stand tall

(Verse 3)

"Maybe" is a lie, when "no" is what I feel

Words like daggers, secrets I conceal

Trauma's grip, a shadow dark and deep

Pushing love away, while my soul starts to weep

(Chorus)

Let the past be dust, a memory I've outgrown

Peace with what was lost, a seed I've newly sown

Imagination's pain, a twisted, cruel design

Reality's embrace, a truth that will refine

(Outro)

Dead plants wither, taking up the space

Time to cultivate, a new and blooming grace

Inner circle small, filled with hearts so true

Kindness and respect, that's the energy I pursue
