Doller to my name

Verse 1 The iron gates clanged shut, and I faced the open sky, Years of stone and steel left scars I can’t deny, With just a single dollar and a heart full of grime, I stepped into freedom, but it felt like a crime. Chorus With a dollar and a dream, in a world gone cold, I walked those empty streets, where the stories are untold, A life stripped bare, with shadows to reclaim, In a dollar’s fleeting hope, I’m bound by shame. Verse 2 The town’s eyes were wary, like they knew my pain, I begged for a hand, but the kindness seemed in vain, Bought a cup of coffee, with the last of my coin, In a world that’s turned its back, I felt so out of join. Chorus With a dollar and a dream, in a world gone cold, I walked those empty streets, where the stories are untold, A life stripped bare, with shadows to reclaim, In a dollar’s fleeting hope, I’m bound by shame. Bridge I wandered through the alleys, where echoes haunt the night, Searching for salvation in the cold, pale light, Each step felt like a burden, each breath a heavy sigh, In the depth of my struggle, I watched my spirit die. Verse 3 Found a lonely corner, in a derelict place, Where the moon’s pale glow was my only grace, Lay my head on the ground, with the dollar by my side, Dreaming of redemption, where my soul could hide. Chorus With a dollar and a dream, in a world gone cold, I walked those empty streets, where the stories are untold, A life stripped bare, with shadows to reclaim, In a dollar’s fleeting hope, I’m bound by shame. Outro The dawn never came, just a cold, endless night, With the weight of the past and no end in sight, A dollar and a dream, but no solace to find, In the quiet of the darkness, I’m left behind.
