Scars of the Past

[Intro]
Dusty roads, shadows in the night,
Echoes of a past that just won't light.
Trailer park memories linger in my mind,
Faded photographs, lost but never blind.
[Verse 1]
Driving through the alleys where the silence screams,
Every corner holds fragments of forgotten dreams.
That morning light shines like a double-edged knife,
It cuts so deep, wrapped in the chaos of life.
[Pre-Chorus]
I can see her face, the tears in her eyes,
The world crumbled down under whispered lies.
Pain etched in the walls, every window a wound,
In the heart of despair, where hope's assumed.
[Chorus]
But I’m rising from the ashes, breaking free,
No longer a prisoner of my history.
I’ll carry the scars, but I’ll chase the light,
From the darkness of yesterday, I’ll ignite.
[Verse 2]
Broke my heart feeling her mass fall down,
In a trailer that wore the weight of a crown.
Lessons learned in the fire, I endure,
Rebuilding my strength, every bruise makes me sure.
[Pre-Chorus]
With every step I take, the shadows fade,
Whispers of the past, in the silence betrayed.
The echoes of a life I’m leaving behind,
Finding my way back, unshackled in my mind.
[Chorus]
But I’m rising from the ashes, breaking free,
No longer a prisoner of my history.
I’ll carry the scars, but I’ll chase the light,
From the darkness of yesterday, I’ll ignite.
[Bridge]
Yeah, they said to end it all, that I was lost,
But through the struggle, I have paid the cost.
I’m fiercely alive, though the wounds run deep,
From the ground of despair, my spirit won’t sleep.
[Outro]
So here’s to the journey, the battles we fought,
Every tear I cried, every battle I fought.
The trailer park’s whispers, they can’t hold my soul,
In the heart of the storm, I've learned to be whole.
