Walk in My Shoes

Faint echoes of a shattered past, shadows crawl in silent fright

Fifty years of struggles and pain, now I stand in fading light

I survived the storm, the war within, scars tell stories I can't hide

Deceivers in disguise, they wear their masks, their lies my tears they've spied

Loss piled high like ancient stones, my loved ones lost to selfish schemes

All I held was torn away, broken dreams and silent screams

But still I stand, a broken man, fighting through the night

Waiting for the day, when justice comes to light

Your lies are serpents in the dark, feeding on my soul

Your choices cursed my life apart, took everything I know

But karma's shadow lingers near, it waits behind your pride

One day you'll walk in these same shoes, with no place left to hide

Oh, your time will come, oh yes, your time will come

When you face the mirror's truth, and you become undone

Your deception’s price is heavy, sinking deep into your soul

Playing gods with lives you ruin, losing all control

My sons, my wife, my world, all faded into nights so cold

Your greed has sealed your fate, a story bitterly retold

But still I hope, beyond this scope, that truth will find its way

That justice blooms from pain, on that final day

Your lies are serpents in the dark, feeding on my soul

Your choices cursed my life apart, took everything I know

But karma's shadow lingers near, it waits behind your pride

One day you'll walk in these same shoes, with no place left to hide

If only you could see, the damage you've inflicted

Would you still be blinded, or admit your guilt?

I wish you felt the heartbreak, felt the tears I've cried

Until you walk in my shoes, you'll never realize

In the silence after storm, I hear the whispers of regret

Echoes of my life before, lost in pain you can't forget

Every tear, every scar, a testament to what’s been lost

A game of deadly lies, paid dearly at a heavy cost

So I wait in shadowed silence, for the day of reckoning near

Your judgment is eternal, your final hour appears

Remember, man, as you walk your path, your conscience won’t forget

Walking in my shoes someday, I wish you’d regret

Your lies are serpents in the dark, feeding on my soul

Your choices cursed my life apart, took everything I know

But karma's shadow lingers near, it waits behind your pride

One day you'll walk in these same shoes, with no place left to hide
