Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – Distant siren, low choir hum] (Heavy breathing. One snare hit.) Yeah… Before you judge the fight— know who I’m fightin’. It ain’t you. ⸻ [Verse 1] 🎶 I wake up with a war in me, Peace talk cheap, rage still adore in me. Got angels on my shoulder feelin’ bored with me, Got demons sayin’ “You know the streets got more for me.” I know right from wrong, still lean wrong, Truth loud but temptation sing strong. I pray, then I pace, then I clench my jaw, Tryna hear God over the sound of my flaws. I got discipline dreams and destructive habits, Faith in my chest, but my past still grabbin’. I don’t need a gun to feel armed and ready, My thoughts load clips when my nerves ain’t steady. I ain’t evil, I’m aware of what I could be, That’s the scariest part of lookin’ at me. I know the power in my hands and tongue, That’s why I gotta watch how I react when I’m sprung. 🎶 ⸻ [Hook – Chant, aggressive] 🎶 It’s a war in me, every day I breathe, One voice say “live,” one say “make ‘em bleed.” I don’t fight the world, I fight what I see— It’s a war in me. (Crowd chant: “Fight! Fight!”) 🎶 ⸻ [Verse 2] 🎶 I talk to God like He already know, ‘Cause He do—He been watchin’ me toe the rope. I don’t ask for favors, I ask for control, ‘Cause I know what happen when I act on impulse. I done won fights I shouldn’t brag about, Lost battles I don’t talk about. I got scars that don’t show on skin, They show when I’m quiet, alone with sin. I ain’t proud of every thought I think, But I don’t lie about ‘em either. If I don’t name my demons out loud, They start thinkin’ they the leader. So I scream my truth in the dark, Not for sympathy—for armor. If I don’t stay honest with myself, I turn into my own martyr. 🎶 ⸻ [Hook – Louder, drums heavier] 🎶 It’s a war in me, I ain’t cured, I’m alert, Still here, still breathin’, still doin’ the work. I don’t need a halo, I need clarity— It’s a war in me. 🎶 ⸻ [Bridge – Spoken prayer, beat drops] God… Don’t let me win wrong. Don’t let my strength outrun my wisdom. Don’t let my anger call itself justice. And if I gotta fight— teach me who to fight. ⸻ [Verse 3] 🎶 Some people hide they dark in a smile, I put mine on front street, let it stare a while. I ain’t glorify pain, but I don’t fake peace, I earn my calm when I don’t let the beast speak. I know the man I am and the man I was, Both still talk when the pressure buzz. This ain’t therapy, this survival sound, Tryna keep my feet holy while I stand my ground. I ain’t healed, I’m here, that matter today, I ain’t perfect, but I ain’t runnin’ away. If you hear this anger mixed with belief, That’s the war—right here—in me. 🎶 ⸻ [Final Hook – Drop + chant] 🎶 It’s a war in me, still standin’ tall, I don’t claim peace—I answer the call. Every breath a decision I choose to see— It’s a war in me. 🎶 ⸻ [Outro – Snare echoes, breathing fades] Yeah… This album ain’t about winnin’. It’s about not losin’ myself.
