Last Night

(Verse 1) Yo, a child’s laughter echoes through the cracked walls, But behind the smiles, I hear the silent calls, Painted in bruises, he wears a mask of shame, Every day's a battle, but he can’t play the game. (Verse 2) Mom’s lost in bottles, dad’s lost in rage, He’s trapped in a cage, just a kid on a stage, Whispers of nightmares haunt him in the night, While love's supposed to guide, it’s a twisted fight. (Verse 3) He dreams of escape, but the chains feel tight, In a world full of darkness, he searches for light, Words like daggers, they cut so deep, Secrets buried in shadows, he struggles to keep. (Verse 4) But hope’s a flicker, a spark in the storm, He’s learning to rise, breaking out of the norm, With every verse he writes, he’s reclaiming his voice, From the ashes of pain, he’s making his choice.
