Beneath the Surface
(Verse 1)
Yo, it's time to open up, dive into the pain,
Heartbreak's got me tormented, driven insane,
Scared to die or live, lost in this twisted game,
Turned to drugs for solace, but I know I'm to blame.
(Chorus)
Beneath the surface, there lies the truth,
Struggling with demons, I need to break loose,
Got to change my ways, find a brand new path,
But respect my journey, 'cause this ain't no laugh.
(Verse 2)
Real talk, my heart's shattered, emotions scarred,
Thought love would save me, but it left me barred,
The darkness consumes me, it rips me apart,
Scared to face the future, goes straight to my heart.
(Chorus)
Beneath the surface, there lies the truth,
Struggling with demons, I need to break loose,
Got to change my ways, find a brand new path,
But respect my journey, 'cause this ain't no laugh.
(Verse 3)
Took a wrong turn, now I'm stuck in the haze,
Drugs were my escape, but it's just a dead phase,
Lost track of time, but I'm ready to rebirth,
Gotta fight for my life, give it all that it's worth.
(Chorus)
Beneath the surface, there lies the truth,
Struggling with demons, I need to break loose,
Got to change my ways, find a brand new path,
But respect my journey, 'cause this ain't no laugh.
(Bridge)
This life ain't easy, yeah, it breaks me down,
But I won't let it define me, won't wear that frown,
I'm rising from the ashes, gonna seize the day,
No more running away, I'm finding my own way.
(Verse 4)
Time to reclaim my life, redefine my truth,
No more drowning in despair, seeking only proof,
I'm breaking free from the chains, spreading my wings wide,
Leaving pain and heartbreak behind, pushing through the tide.
(Chorus)
Beneath the surface, there lies the truth,
Struggling with demons, I need to break loose,
Got to change my ways, find a brand new path,
But respect my journey, 'cause this ain't no laugh.
