Lyrics
[Verse]
Cake in the dark, don’t need no candles
Mom and dad gone, hearts dismantled
Every year’s a clock tick, hear it chime
Counting my breath, scared to run outta time
Gray strands creeping, mirror don’t lie
Kids in the hall, laughter meets my sigh
Legacy’s fragile, thin as spider’s thread
Can’t let my story end before theirs is read
[Chorus]
Thirty-six fears, weight on my chest
Every heartbeat feels like a test
Don’t wanna leave ‘em, don’t wanna go
Keep holding on, but the river might flow
Thirty-six fears, shadows that crawl
Praying to the ceiling, scared of the fall
If tomorrow’s the end, let ‘em know I cared
Let ‘em know I stayed, even when I was scared
[Verse 2]
Dad fought the beast, lost his last round
Mom whispered goodbye, her voice drowned
Genes feel cursed, stitched into my seams
Doctors and nightmares invade my dreams
Every cough, every ache, a silent scream
Paranoia’s a fog, dims every gleam
Kids deserve better, not a ghost in the frame
I’d give my last breath to shield ‘em from pain

Prompt
I hate my birthday. I’m turning 36 tomorrow and both my mom and dad are dead from cancer. I’m terrified that I’ll die before my kids grow old. I don’t want them to have that pain.
Sad, strings, rap
