(1) In the mirror, see a face, but the smile's a disguise, (2) Fighting shadows in my mind, got me questioning the prize, (3) Every step feels heavy, like I'm dragging through the mud, (4) Chasing dreams in the night, but they fade like a flood. (5) These voices in my head, man, they whisper and they shout, (6) Tell me I ain't worth it, got me filled with doubt, (7) I hustle hard, but the grind feels like a cage, (8) Trapped in my own thoughts, like I'm stuck on a stage. (9) Watch the world move forward, I'm stuck in rewind, (10) Searching for validation, but it's hard to find, (11) I wear my heart on my sleeve, but it’s tattered and torn, (12) Trying to rise like the sun, but I’m feeling so worn. (13) Scrolling through the highlights, but I’m lost in the feed, (14) Comparing my lows to their highs, planting doubt like a seed, (15) But I’m learning to rise, even when I feel low, (16) Every scar tells a story, and it’s time to let it show.
