Shadows of Redemption ( reggae)

Echoes in the night, shadows of my past,

Trying to find a light that last,

Walking through the fire, scars that define,

Chasing redemption, trying to redefine.

Made my mistakes in a reckless youth,

Partied away my innocence, chasing truth,

Now I pay the price, caught in the blur,

Living in a nightmare, trying to stay sober.

I asked you to stay but you had to run away

Breaking my heart in to pieces I felt it everyday

Please baby didn’t you know I needed your understanding and a soft place needed for me to be landing

Filling voids with fleeting highs,

Nightmares dance beneath my eyes,

Dragging through the games of love and pain,

I’m trying to rise above the rain.

Redemption isn’t hard, but the scars remain,

Begging for a second chance, to escape the pain,

Leave the past behind, start anew,

Living life my way, honest and true.

You left when I was broken, now I’m healing slow,

Finding my way out, learning how to grow,

Forget your name, I’ll move on free,

Living clean, just trying to be me.

Hold onto something real in this unreal world,

Breaking free from the chains, unfurl,

A new beginning, sober and strong,

Writing my story, where I belong.
