Verse 1:
In the echo of silence, shadows creeping near,
I was just a child, didn't know of fear,
Mama said "follow, it’s just a game we play,"
Running through the darkness, lost along the way.
Pre-Chorus:
But they don't see the scars that linger still,
Chorus:
Oh, society made me a monster,
Built from the echoes of a life torn asunder,
Every job I try, every step I take,
They dig up the past, just to watch me break.
Melodic Interlude:
Verse 2:
I fought through the years, clawed my way out,
But the ghosts of the past still whisper in doubt,
I wear my heart heavy, a burden I bear,
What’s left of my spirit, can you even care?
Bridge:
Will they ever let me free, or is this my fate?
Chorus:
Oh, society made me a monster,
Built from the echoes of a life torn asunder,
Every job I try, every step I take,
They dig up the past, just to watch me break.
Melodic Interlude:
Chorus:
Oh, society made me a monster,
Shaped by neglect, by their cruel bluster,
I’m reaching for light, but the dark holds me tight,
A soul in the shadows, I’m lost from your sight.
