“Scar Stories”

🎵 Hook (spoken-sung, emotional)

These ain’t scars, they stories with a plot (with a plot)

Every cut on me came with a lesson I forgot (fr)**

I ain’t healed, I just learned how to walk

With a limp full of pain and a mouth full of chalk

These scars talk louder than my name (they loud)

Each one linked to a face I can’t blame

I don’t flex, I confess through flame

Scar stories — inked in vein

---

This one on my hand? That’s pops goin’ ghost

Had to swing on a wall just to silence the smoke

One on my ribs? That’s love gone foul

Shorty lied with her tears while she ruined my vow

Scar on my leg? That’s runnin’ from loss

Same night granny died, I got robbed at the cross

See this one near my eye? That’s trust

Trusted a friend, now I don’t talk much

And this one on my soul? You can’t even see

But it bleed in every bar that bleeds from me

🔊 Ad-Libs – Verse 1:

“True story.” / “Every mark matter.” / “They all talk.” / “Wrote in skin.”

🎵 Hook (repeat – more vocal layering)

These ain’t scars, they stories with a plot

Every cut on me came with a lesson I forgot

I ain’t healed, I just learned how to walk

With a limp full of pain and a mouth full of chalk

These scars talk louder than my name

Each one linked to a face I can’t blame

I don’t flex, I confess through flame

Scar stories — inked in vein

---

I ain’t ashamed of the damage I wear

It’s the proof I survived what nobody would dare

They say “move on” — I move through

Carry my pain like a blade that grew

These scars my résumé — not my chains

They the reason I write with a hurricane brain

I got burned, but I built from smoke

Now my pain worth gold in every quote

If I ever go silent, just check my skin

Every scar got a voice that don’t blend in

---

🔊 Ad-Libs – Verse 2:

“Proof I lived.” / “Say that.” / “Real ink.” / “Permanent.”

🎧 Outro – sample crackles, piano solo

(Spoken)

I don’t need ink to tell my story.

I wear it.
