Fractured Halo

[Verse]
Painted scars on a soul turned brittle,
Life played rough, I'm stuck in the middle.
Brothers spit venom, sharp and cruel,
Their laughter echoes in an endless duel.
[Chorus]
Mama's shield up for their rage,
Locked me out of my own life's stage.
Tried to scream, fell on deaf ears,
Now drowning in silence, soaked in years.
[Verse 2]
Fists flew faster than the tears they knew,
I built a cage where I outgrew.
Hollow love from shadows that loom,
Family’s just a word in a broken room.
[Bridge]
Windows ain't bars, but they feel that way,
Choked by the nights that bleed into day.
Trust tastes bitter when it's burned and frayed,
Held my own hand just to make it okay.
[Chorus]
Mama's shield up for their rage,
Locked me out of my own life's stage.
Tried to scream, fell on deaf ears,
Now drowning in silence, soaked in years.
[Verse 3]
Memory’s dagger, cutting clean,
Unveiled truths in a loaded scene.
Peace is a lie that I can’t decipher,
Brain wired wrong, the world’s my cipher.
