Rap

Yeah…

Look—

Late nights, no sleep, just thoughts in my head (no sleep),

Same demons I buried keep raisin’ instead.

Smile on my face but it’s cracks in the paint,

Tried to pray it away but it turned into pain.

I gave my all, they still switched up quick,

Now my trust got thin like the edge of a cliff (on edge).

Heart too big, yeah it cost me a lot,

Every scar got a story, every lesson I bought.

I been fightin’ myself, tryna keep it together,

Storms in my chest, I been stuck in this weather.

They see the wins but they don’t see the bleed (they don’t),

Had to water my soul just to grow from the seed.

I don’t cry no more, I just stare at the wall,

Tryna silence the echo when my past start to call.

Felt alone in a room that was full of my friends (alone),

That’s the kind of hurt that don’t ever quite end.

Look—

I was givin’ my loyalty, never got it returned,

Had to sit with the silence while my bridges all burned (burned down).

They was sayin’ they real, but it came with a mask,

Now I question intentions every time that I ask.

I been carryin’ weight that they never could see,

All these battles I fight ain’t as loud as they seem.

Had to learn how to stand when nobody would stay (by myself),

Buildin’ strength out of nights I was breakin’ away.

There were days I was close just to givin’ it up,

Feelin’ empty inside like I ran outta luck.

But somethin’ inside kept tellin’ me “fight” (keep goin’),

Even stars gotta struggle just to shine in the night.

Now I’m changin’ my view, I ain’t stuck in that place,

I been chasin’ my peace, I ain’t runnin’ that race (slow down).

All the pain that I felt, yeah it shaped who I am,

Turned a boy with some scars to a stronger man.

I’m still here, yeah I’m breathin’ through it (still here),

Every bruise on my heart, yeah I’m turnin’ to music.

If I fall, I get up, I ain’t stayin’ down long,

Turn the pain into power, let it live in the song.

Look—

I been lost, I admit it, but I’m findin’ my way,

Even dark nights fade when you face a new day (sunrise).

If you feel what I feel, put your hands to the sky,

We ain’t broken for nothin’, we just learn how to fly.

Yeah—

And maybe one day I’ll look back at the scars,

See the pain was the fuel that was makin’ me hard.

Every tear, every doubt, every night I survived (I made it),

Was the proof I was livin’, not just barely alive.

So if you’re feelin’ that weight, like it’s too much to hold,

Just remember this story ain’t the end that’s been told.

We don’t break, we rebuild, we evolve, we grow—

Sometimes losin’ yourself is how you finally know.
