Echoes of Broken Chains

Lyrics

Her name was Mahnaz Mohsenpour A woman who was supposed to be a mother Supposed to be safety Supposed to be peace But some people Become nothing more than scars in your life I spent years living with one question How can a mother leave her children behind? How can she walk away into a new life And leave broken hearts behind her? I still remember that pain That feeling of abandonment That feeling like you never mattered to anybody When I was a kid All I wanted was love All I wanted was family But what I received instead Was betrayal Loneliness Silence And the worst part was The people who were supposed to protect me Became the reason for my pain My own sister ratted me out to the cops Sent me to jail for something I say I didn’t do And when I got out Nobody was there to help me up I only had two thousand dollars And a heart full of anger But I still kept moving forward Because I realized Some people enter your life Only to teach you That you have to save yourself Every lonely night Made me stronger Every betrayal Made me more dangerous when it came to succeeding Now I don’t look for validation from anybody anymore Not family Not the people who abandoned me Not the people who never understood what I survived I rose from the dirt From pain From failure From the darkest streets inside my own mind And now every person who tried to destroy me Only helped create a stronger version of me So keep judging Keep talking Keep spreading hate Because I’m still here Still breathing Still building Still becoming something None of you could ever stop Miss Mahzad I always had your back like a real brother Every time you fell Every time your life fell apart Every time you needed help I was there But one day will come When you will need me too The same way I always needed somebody beside me And nobody was there But what can I say? A mother like Mahnaz Mohsenpour Will raise a daughter just like herself And honestly Maybe that’s why we never got along You’re a cat And I’m a dog The difference is I carry loyalty on my shoulders While all you ever knew how to do Was save yourselves even if everyone else got destroyed This song is only the beginning The world is about to see your real faces Those fake personalities Those masks you wore for years They’re all about to fall apart And this song? This is nothing I haven’t even started yet My next book is going to expose everything Every truth Every betrayal Every disgusting thing hidden behind your fake smiles And when people finally see the truth There won’t be any masks left to hide behind So keep jumping Keep laughing Keep hiding behind those fake masks Because it’s not gonna last forever I wrote your mom a letter And I made sure people around town saw the truth about who she really is Because some people spend their whole lives hiding behind fake personalities You and your mom Everything you did Left scars on everybody else My dad’s retirement money Gone for years Trust destroyed Family destroyed Maybe some people never pay for what they do in this world Maybe they think they escaped Maybe they think they won But I believe No truth stays hidden forever Judgment Day is real God is real And on that day Money won’t save you Lies won’t save you Fake personalities won’t save you I’m not waiting for revenge I’m waiting for the truth to fully come to light And when that day comes Everybody will face the consequences of their own choices
