Mind Wars

Intro ]

They say it’s all in my head…

Yeah? Then tell that to the voices.

I wake up with static, my mind’s automatic,

Thoughts are erratic, panic's cinematic,

Mirror shows a face I barely recognize,

Eyes wide, hiding cries behind the lies.

They tell me “just breathe,” but I choke on the silence,

My peace is a myth, all I know is defiance,

Fakin' a smile while I’m mentally bleedin’,

Demons keep screamin’, I silence 'em by feedin’.

My brain’s a battleground, scars like a warzone,

I’m home alone with a tone that's stone-cold,

You think I’m fine? You just see the disguise,

But I’m breakin’ apart behind well dressed lies.

(Sung)

These mind wars got me losin’ sleep,

Screamin’ in the dark where the secrets creep,

(Rapped)

Can’t shut it off, it just runs too deep,

I fight my mind but it won’t retreat.

(Sung)

No peace, no rest, just a storm inside,

I smile on the surface but I’m dead in the eyes.

Tired of pills, tired of shrinks, tired of thinkin’ I’m the problem,

Like I caused ‘em, like I chose the venom in my column.

I don’t need advice, I need an exorcist,

I’m a mind twist with a clenched fist and a death wish.

Laugh it off? Nah, I’m past that phase,

I write pain in bars, let the ink set blaze.

Pressure builds tick, tick no escape valve,

Feelin’ like a freak locked inside my own cell.

Tell me I’m strong while I shatter alone,

Textbook trauma but no place called home.

I’m my own curse, I’m the knife and the scar,

A glitch in the system that’s gone too far.

(Sung)

These mind wars got me losin’ sleep,

Screamin’ in the dark where the secrets creep,

(Rapped)

Can’t shut it off, it just runs too deep,

I fight my mind but it won’t retreat.

(Sung)

No peace, no rest, just a storm inside,

I smile on the surface but I’m dead in the eyes.

I’m not broken...

I’m just built this way.

Born from shadows where the silence preyed.

You call it madness…

I call it survival.

While you live for likes, I fight for revival.

Now I’m done bein’ quiet, done bein’ numb,

I spit what you fear, I’m the sound of the drum.

Every beat of my heart is a war cry loud,

I’m the pain in the crowd that won’t blend with the crowd.

Dark thoughts? I host ‘em like houseguests,

Toastin’ to ghosts while I drown regrets.

They said I’d never rise, just a lost case,

Now I write my truth in your smug face.

A savage with scars, a mind like a maze,

Walkin’ through hell in a lyrical blaze.

This ain’t for fame, nah, this is confession,

My verses are therapy, ink is my weapon.

(Sung)

These mind wars got me losin’ sleep,

Screamin’ in the dark where the secrets creep,

(Rapped)

Can’t shut it off, it just runs too deep,

I fight my mind but it won’t retreat.

(Sung)

No peace, no rest,
