Silent Screams

[Rap Trap Soul]

[Intro]
The loudest pain ain’t always the kind you hear…

⸻

[Verse 1 Trap soul]
Smile on the outside, but the pain’s deep down
Fightin’ battles every day where no one’s around
Nights feel longer than the dreams I chase
Mask on my face, but I’m outta place
Try to cry, but the tears don’t come
Just numb in a house that don’t feel like home
Thoughts too loud, can’t mute my mind
These wounds too silent to ever find

⸻

[Hook]
Silent screams, louder than my pride
Bleedin’ behind the smile I hide
Darkness creepin’, but I won’t fold
This fight’s heavy, but I’m still bold

⸻

[Chorus]
I wear my mask, but it’s crackin’ thin
The war inside won’t let me win
But I’m still breathin’, still holdin’ on
Hopin’ the light finds me before too long
Tryna stay strong while I’m fallin’ apart
Can’t see the wounds, but you can feel the heart

⸻

[Verse 2]
I answer “I’m good” even when I’m not
Tryna keep peace with the war I got
Wake up drained, go to sleep tight wound
Silence so loud I can hear it pound
Voices say I ain’t enough, but I still show up
Even if the tank on E, I fill my cup
Smilin’ for my kids, tryna stay inspired
But truth is, I’m just… tired

⸻

[Hook – repeat with subtle background vocals]
Silent screams, louder than my pride
Bleedin’ behind the smile I hide
Darkness creepin’, but I won’t fold
This fight’s heavy, but I’m still bold

⸻

[Bridge- Harmonize]
If I go quiet, just know I’m not gone
Sometimes I break just to hold on
Behind the calm, there’s a war unseen
Behind the strength, are silent screams

⸻

[Spoken Outro – soft, reflective]

I’m not okay all the time… and that’s okay.
Some days, I’m just tryin’ to survive my own thoughts.
But I’m still here… silent, but strong.
And I pray one day, I’ll be heard… without having to scream.
