I’m Trying

(Verse 1)

Letting go of toxic roots, yeah, it cuts deep,

Echoes of their voices, haunt me in my sleep,

Broken to the core, but I’m rising from the ash,

Filling up the void, but it’s hard to make it last.

(Verse 2)

I found a love that’s real, built a family of my own,

Hope my kids can see the warmth I’ve finally grown,

Sorry for the lessons that I never got to learn,

But in their laughter, I find the light that helps me burn.

(Verse 3)

Walking through the shadows, yeah, I carry all that weight,

But their smiles remind me, I can choose a different fate,

Proud of every step, though the past still tries to cling,

In this hypnotic vibe, I’m embracing everything.
