Lyrics

[INTRO]
I was born to screams, fists through the walls
No bedtime stories — just darkness and brawls

[VERSE 1]
My dad would swing, my mom stayed quiet
I took the hits, no peace, just riots
Brother gone, I became a child-warrior
Heart in shards, face like a corridor
No hugs, no truth, no one to trust
Just pain — and I wore it like rust


[CHORUS]
Born in pain, where my soul went cold
Where love don’t grow, and hearts don’t hold
Looking for a way out, light through the storm
But pain pulls me in — like a drug I was born for


[VERSE 2]
My first loves? Already scars in ink
One used me up, the other lied in sync
Friends with daggers, secrets and shame
I thought words were real — turns out they’re just games
So I shut it all down, locked the vault
Twenty years frozen, and it’s still my fault


[CHORUS]
Born in pain, where my soul went cold
Where love don’t grow, and hearts don’t hold
Looking for a way out, light through the storm
But pain pulls me in — like a drug I was born for


[BRIDGE]
Then you showed up, Manu —
With real eyes that broke right through
You lit my soul, sparked a fire
Made me feel love, made me climb higher


[VERSE 3]
But love came with the madness too
Every two weeks, boom — I break in two
Mental poison, deep in my veins
I chase the hurt like an addict chases chains
’Cause pain makes me feel alive —
Even if it burns me from the inside


[CHORUS]
Born in pain, where my soul went cold
Where love don’t grow, and hearts don’t hold
Looking for a way out, light through the storm
But pain pulls me in — like a drug I was born for


[OUTRO]
The more I breathe, the more I break
Peace keeps running, and I’m wide awake
