[Intro]
It’s the Painkiller, I’m back,
Heart heavy, veins runnin’ black.
A mirror of his shadow, tryna trace the cracks,
Half the man he was, I’m just tryna get on track.
[Verse 1]
Daddy’s hands built mountains outta mud,
Mine just stumble, fingers stained with blood.
He was steel, unshaken by the flood,
I’m paper in the rain, every tear a thud.
His words cut through silence, sharp as a blade,
Mine scatter like ashes, memories fade.
He held the weight, never let it invade,
I buckle under pressure, foundations frayed.
[Chorus]
Half the man, not even close,
Chasin’ shadows, haunted by his ghost.
Half the man, lost in the smoke,
Every step I take, feels like a joke.
[Verse 2]
He carried pain like a soldier wears scars,
I crumble under wounds, reaching for stars.
His laughter a fortress, locked behind bars,
Mine hollow, echoing through empty cars.
He taught me strength, but I lost the map,
Now I’m drowning in the spaces, caught in the gap.
His footsteps a melody, mine a mishap,
Tryna climb, but I keep sliding the trap.
