[Verse]
Woke up to the grind every morn
Pushing boulders up an endless hill
Mom wanted a star in the making
Heart torn between your thrill
[Verse 2]
Late nights with the books and the bands
Running errands with no time for me
Girlfriend wanted more than promises
Guess love ain't always free
[Chorus]
Caught in the whirlwind of devotion
Balancing hearts like spinning plates
She left with a single emotion
While I was drowning in life’s weights
[Verse 3]
Mom’s dreams seemed like iron bars
Holding tight to every single deed
I just wanted to drift with the stars
But roots dragged me by their creed
[Bridge]
Girlfriend’s words like sharp knives
Cutting deep into my untamed soul
Tried to hold them both in my life
Now feeling the empty hole
[Chorus]
Caught in the whirlwind of devotion
Balancing hearts like spinning plates
She left with a single emotion
While I was drowning in life’s weights
