Verse 1
Grey clouds in my head, every thought feel heavy,
Smiles on the surface but the inside unsteady.
Days feel long, nights stretch thin,
Fighting my mind like a war within.
People say “be strong,” yeah I try every day,
But the weight of the world don’t just fade away.
Looking for a shortcut out the pain I feel,
Anything to numb it, anything that feels real.
Hook
Depression in my shadow, whispering my name,
Drugs promise relief but they feed the flame.
Moonshine in the dark, trying to feel alive,
But the truth is clear—I gotta survive.
Verse 2
Saw friends lose time chasing temporary highs,
Laugh now, crash later, see it in their eyes.
Bottle say “freedom,” pills say “peace,”
But every quick fix make the problems increase.
Moonshine dreams under cold blue light,
Feels warm for a moment, then steals the night.
Pain don’t disappear when you run from the truth,
It just waits real patient, coming back to you.
Hook
Depression in my shadow, whispering my name,
Drugs promise relief but they feed the flame.
Moonshine in the dark, trying to feel alive,
But the truth is clear—I gotta survive.
Verse 3
So I talk when it’s hard, I reach when I’m low,
Learning that healing’s a slow, slow road.
No shame in the struggle, no crown in the hurt,
Real strength is asking for help first.
I’m more than the pain, more than the night,
More than the habits that don’t treat me right.
Still here, still breathing, still chasing the sun,
Battle ain’t over—but I haven’t lost one.
Outro
Yeah, the dark gets loud, but hope gets louder,
Step by step, I’m getting prouder.
No fake escapes, I choose my life,
Still writing my story—still in the fight.
