One Step At A Time
Verse 1 I’m tryna make peace but my mind’s at constant war, Memories like shadows knockin’ on my soul’s door, Mama said I’m strong but sometimes I feel so weak, Carrying these burdens nobody else can speak. Lost my brother to the silence that’s buried in pain, I replay those moments like thunder in my brain, Every tear that I hide is a story untold, I’m still walkin’ through fires with a heart gone cold. Ghosts of the past keep whisperin’ lies in my ear, Telling me I’m worthless, feeding off my fear, But I gotta rise, for the kids, for the life ahead, Even when hope’s buried deep in the tears I shed. I stare through the darkness, try to find my way home, A man lost in the crowd, tryna stand on his own, If I stumble, if I fall, it’s just part of the fight, I’m chasing that dawn, pushing through the night. Verse 2 Late nights, baby crying, and I’m barely holding on, Thinkin’ ‘bout the promises I made before he was born, Wife says I’m distant but I’m fightin’ inside, Trying to be a man while these doubts won’t subside. In the mirror I’m a stranger, a soul craving light, Got demons in my footsteps that follow through the night, So if I fall, just know it’s not from lack of fight, I’m lookin’ for a way to make this broken thing right. Every day’s a battle, some days I just survive, Prayin’ for the strength to keep my dreams alive, It’s a thin line between broken and whole, But I’m holdin’ on tight to the pieces of my soul. I write pain in my verses, pour my heart on the page, Tryna break free from these curses, escape from this cage, No shame in the struggle, just truth in the rhyme, Walkin’ one step at a time, reclaiming what’s mine.
