[Verse]
Cut the cord, I’m free, no puppeteer strings
Father was a shadow, love came with stings
Snake in his smile, venom in his veins
Mother chasing highs, drowning in her chains
Born in the fire, I walked through the ash
They fed me their lies, I spit ‘em back fast
Told me I’d be nothing, just a chip off the block
Now I’m carving my name in unbreakable rock
[Chorus]
Better without 'em, weight off my chest
Heart’s still bruised, but I’m feeling blessed
Aunt came through, she gave me the rest
Saved me from a story that could’ve been death
[Verse 2]
They thought I’d crumble, thought I’d stay low
But I’m a phoenix, wings catch the glow
Druggie mother’s ghost, father’s crooked schemes
Tried to steal my nights, haunt all my dreams
But I’m writing new pages, fresh ink in the book
Tore out the chapters where the villains took
Every scar they gave, now armor on my skin
Their poison couldn’t break the steel within
[Bridge]
They built a storm, I became the eye
Watched their chaos, still I rise
No more tears for the past they stained
Their darkness lost, my light remains
