Storms of the Heart

Cloudy skies, heavy thoughts inside

Lost in the haze, trying to find the light

Dreams of change, a new path to take

Walking through the storm, trying not to break

Feeling stuck in endless game, shadows of my past

Nightmares haunt my mind, wishing I could fast forward that

Trying to move on, leave the weight behind

Ottawa’s streets call me forth, a new life to find

Heart racing, fears embracing, whispers telling me to stay

But I know I gotta fight, break free from yesterday

Deep inside, I’m trying to speak, voice trembling with doubt

Hoping someday I’ll be heard, find what life’s about

War is over, I’m still fighting now

Searching for peace, don’t know how

Trying to make sense of this worthless life

Seeking the dawn beyond the night

Sending hope across the miles, to the little boy I love

Knowing I might not see him grow, but I pray to the stars above

DoorDash waits, the city calls, pushing me to move ahead

Bigger dreams, brighter schemes, leaving behind the dread

Though I fear, I must appear, to face a brand new day

Hoping he forgives my sins, and finds his way

The war is over, now I rise, breaking all my chains

Walking towards the light, shedding all my pains
