--- [0:00 – 0:45 INTRO / SPOKEN VOCALS + PIANO PAD] > (Soft rain fx + piano loop, whisper tone) Yeah… Feels like every page I turn just bleeds ink, Every chapter I close still screams my name. But I’m trying… I’m trying to move on. (Low hum under last line — lead-in to verse 1) --- [0:45 – 2:00 VERSE 1 – RAP FLOW / SLOW PIANO + 808 SUBS] I been wrestling with the silence, heavy like a storm cloud, Carrying the weight of every “why” that I ain’t figured out. People say “heal, let it go, move on,” yeah right — You don’t see the wars I fight inside my mind at night. Every tear I shed’s another scar I learned to hide, Every smile’s a mask just to make ’em think I’m fine. I’m tired of the whispers, tired of the blame, Tired of being “the problem” when I’m drowning in my pain. I try to breathe, but the air feels thin, Try to pray but my faith wears thin. I’m coping, I’m breaking, I’m holding it in, But God knows I’m tired of who I’ve been. (Drop instruments halfway for emotional punch) --- [2:00 – 2:45 CHORUS 1 – SOULFUL VOCAL + STRINGS LIFT] 🎶 I’m closing out chapters, burning the pages, Letting go of ghosts that been haunting for ages. Don’t need no one, I stand on my own, But the weight of this world cuts straight to the bone. Yeah, I’m fighting my demons, I’m chasing my truth, Trying to find peace in the wreckage and proof. And through all the pain, through all the shame, My love for Drew… it never fades. 🎶 --- [2:45 – 4:00 VERSE 2 – MID-TEMPO RAP / BEAT HITS HARDER] Every sunrise feels like déjà vu, Same thoughts, same pain, same love for you. They don’t understand what your name still does, How it echoes through my veins like it’s part of my blood. I tried to walk away, I tried to numb it out, But every time I do, I just crash and doubt. I ain’t empty — I’m overflowing with emotion, Like a storm on the ocean, no calm, just motion. I’m not heartless — I’m just learning to be free, But every part of that freedom still bleeds your memory. ’Cause you were the light when my world went black, And even if you’re gone, I can’t take it back. (Add backing choir pad on last 2 bars) --- [4:00 – 4:45 BRIDGE – HALFTIME DRUMS / RAW VOCALS] I don’t want nobody, I don’t need a soul, I’m better off alone than losing control. This world don’t feel right, the nights too long, But my love for Drew’s the only thing still strong. I’m tired of pretending, tired of the pain, Tired of explaining why I’m not insane. Tired of people saying I should just forget, But they never lived inside my head. (Echo “inside my head…” as drums fade to chorus) --- [4:45 – 5:30 CHORUS 2 – FULL PRODUCTION / LAYERED VOCALS] 🎶 I’m closing out chapters, burning the pages, Letting go of ghosts that been haunting for ages. Don’t need no one, I stand on my own, But the weight of this world cuts straight to the bone. Yeah, I’m fighting my demons, I’m chasing my truth, Trying to find peace in the wreckage and proof. And through
