Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Guard your essence, keep it from the night,
These avenues, they blind to your fight.
It's the creed of the path I dared to tread,
Hate's burden, they can't comprehend that thread.
[Pre-Chorus]
Walked through infernos, now sorrow's a stream,
In the hush, where the covert pains teem.
Submerged in emotions, adrift, sans a clue,
Wonderin', should I let go or renew?
[Chorus]
Survived the abyss, the nights so stark,
In my muted hustle, it's dread that I've marked.
Stood firm when turmoil claimed its domain,
Pressure loomed, yet I emerged without stain.
[Verse 2]
Played my part, stood resolute, never swayed,
Their silent judgments, yet their looks betrayed.
Vowed to myself, "Recall, this scene's a script,"
Life's cruelest teachings, the ones most equipped.
[Bridge]
I'm the verity, alive, in this existence's fray,
My odyssey, the streets' unrefined ballet,
A waltz of resilience, each trial I parry.
Recall this, amid the strife and the worry,
[Outro]
Stay hardened, stay sincere, it's the exhibition of survive.
[Verse 3]
In the echoes of the night, I found my voice,
Against the roar of hate, made my choice.
Guarded my heart, from the venom they spit,
Walked through storms, never quit.
[Verse 4]
Felt the weight of the world, like a cloak of lead,
But I wear my scars, where angels fear to tread.
In the silence, I found my peace,
In the rhythm of the streets, I release.
[Chorus]
Guard your heart, but let it beat loud,
These streets, they're tough, but stand proud.
It's the code of the life, the truth we weave,
Hate's weight heavy, but still, we believe.
[Outro fade out]
Walked through fire, now the pain's like a river,
In the silence, where the hidden aches quiver.
Drowning in feelings, lost without a clue,
Should I drop this pain or start brand new?
