Lyrics

[INTRO]
In the shadows, where silence breaks,
Memories linger, just like mistakes.
Every heartbeat, a reminder of pain,
Lost in this chaos, it’s hard to remain.

[VERSE 1]
I walk these streets, haunted by the past,
Every siren's wail feels like it’s built to last.
Handcuffed dreams, on the cold concrete,
Echoes of laughter, now my heart skips a beat.
They tried to hold me down, tried to erase my name,
But I’m still standing, lost in this game.

[CHORUS]
My PTSD is intense, can't break free,
It haunts me daily, it’s a part of me.
From the bruises of restraint to the scars on my soul,
Every fight I’ve fought, takes its toll.

[VERSE 2]
Punched in the face, but it's not just the skin,
It’s the haunting whispers, where do I begin?
Familiar faces turn to nightmares and fears,
Each confrontation, a storm of tears.
The flashbacks hit me when I close my eyes,
Caught in the chaos, where the darkness lies.

[CHORUS]
My PTSD is intense, can't break free,
It haunts me daily, it’s a part of me.
From the bruises of restraint to the scars on my soul,
Every fight I’ve fought, takes its toll.

[BRIDGE]
But I’m learning to break chains, finding my way,
With every sunrise, I’ll face a new day.
Gonna write my own story, take back my fight,
I’m more than the shadows that owned me at night.

[CHORUS]
My PTSD is intense, can't break free,
It haunts me daily, it’s a part of me.
From the bruises of restraint to the scars on my soul,
Every fight I’ve fought, takes its toll.

[OUTRO]
So here’s to the battles, and here’s to the scars,
I’ll keep on rising, I’ll reach for the stars.
My journey's not over, this isn’t the end,
With love and with hope, I will mend.
