Silence in My War

Lyrics

[INTRO] Stuck in a loop, brain on overload, Mom's voice blares, endless complaints in the air. [VERSE 1] My thoughts are tangled, chaos on the page, Every time I breathe, another storm in the cage. Mom keeps shouting, “Why you so slow?” I’m trying to breathe, but the weight’s too heavy to go. [PRE-CHORUS] My stomach’s aching, pain’s a silent drum, Feeling tired, my world feels numb.

Mom’s voice is louder, louder, louder, I’m pleading for silence, but I hear her holler. [PRE-CHORUS] My mind is racing, the pressure’s thick, I’m juggling tasks, and I’m stuck in a trick. I keep my head down, I keep my feet on the grind, But the noise inside keeps my heart in a bind. [CHORUS] Shut the damn up, lady, I’m in my own war, Trying to clean up, but I’m already raw. I’m tired, I’m hurting, can’t keep holding on, I need some peace, some time before dawn. [BRIDGE] Maybe one day I’ll find the light, When the weight lifts, when everything feels right. Till then I’ll hold my breath, fight through the night, And hope the morning comes with a calmer fight. [CHORUS] Shut the damn up, lady, I’m in my own war, Trying to clean up, but I’m already raw. I’m tired, I’m hurting, can’t keep holding on, I need some peace, some
