lean on me

(Verse 1) In the shadows where the whispers creep, Dark thoughts linger, secrets buried deep, Heart heavy like a stone, can't feel the beat, Lost in the maze, can't find my feet. City lights flicker, but they don't shine bright, Every corner turned, caught in a fight, Demons in my head, they ain't taking flight, Chasing ghosts in the night, no end in sight. Hustle hard, but the grind feels cold, Stories untold, like the streets of old, Trust is a gamble, but I never fold, Life's a game of chess, every move is bold. Echoes of the past, they haunt my dreams, Reality's twisted, nothing's as it seems, From the depths I rise, fueled by silent screams, In this darkened world, I'm tearing at the seams. or
