ALONE

ALONE I'm Staring at the ceiling while my thoughts in disarray, Echoes of my laughter fade, lost in yesterday. Walking through the shadows, heavy heart on my sleeve, Every corner I turn, it’s hard to believe. Memories like ghosts, they haunt me at night, Chasing all the dreams that slipped out of sight. Isolation’s a blanket, wrapped tight around my soul, Searching for the pieces, while I'm trying to feel whole. Whispers in the silence, they cut like a knife, Each moment I’m alone, I'm questioning this life. But I’m digging through the pain, hoping to find, A glimmer of the strength that’s buried in my mind. Reflecting on the battles I fought in the dark, Finding light in the cracks, igniting a spark. Though the road feels heavy, and the nights are long, I’m learning how to rise, even when I’m gone. Yeah, if it ain't from your heart, don’t even start, Streetlights flicker, shadows playin' my part, Hustle in my veins, I’m grindin' through the night, Gotta keep it real, keep my vision in sight. Talk is cheap, I can see through the lies, Every word you spit just a mask for the cries, Rolling with the crew, loyalty's the code, If your heart ain't in it, better lighten the load. (Verse 2) Concrete jungle, where the dreams get made, But the fakes get exposed, watch the real ones invade, I’m spittin’ fire, got the passion and the spark, If it’s not from your heart, then you’re missin’ the mark. Life’s a gamble, and I’m all in the game, Play your cards right, or you'll drown in the shame, Streetwise wisdom, yeah, I learned it the hard way, If your heart ain't in it, then just step away.
