(Intro) Yeah… This for anybody fighting battles they don’t post online. You ain’t weak. You human. (Verse 1) I used to wake up with a weight on my chest, Smile on my face but a war in my head. Room full of people, still alone in the crowd, Heart screaming quiet while I’m laughing out loud. Told myself “man up,” bottle it tight, Turn pain into hustle, grind day into night. But the mirror don’t lie when the lights go dim, That reflection look back like, “You losing, my friend.” Scrolling through feeds, everybody shining, Meanwhile I’m drowning but I keep on rhyming. Anxiety whisper, depression shout, Got me second-guessing what my life about. Tried to outrun it with work and pride, But trauma don’t care how you try to hide. Every unresolved scar still bleeds in the dark, Every “I’m fine” just a cover-up art. (Hook) If you feeling that pressure, let it out, don’t mask it, Broken ain’t hopeless, you just gotta unmask it. We all got storms, yeah we all got scars, But a bruise don’t define who you are. Speak up, reach out, let somebody in, Healing ain’t weakness, that’s strength within. You ain’t crazy for feeling the weight, Mental health matters — it’s never too late. (Verse 2) I remember nights staring at the ceiling, Fighting off thoughts I was scared of revealing. That voice in my head like, “You less than enough,” Comparing my lows to somebody’s highlight stuff. Therapy chair felt strange at first, Digging through memories, peeling back hurt. Had to face childhood, anger, fear, Tears I ain’t shed in over ten years. Learned that my triggers ain’t random sparks, They tied to the pain that I buried in parts. Had to forgive what I couldn’t control, Had to accept I can’t carry it all. Meditation mornings, journaling nights, Cut off some ties just to save my life. Real ones stayed when I dropped the act, They ain’t need perfection — just me intact. (Bridge) And if you thinking nobody relates, Trust me, I been at the edge of that place. It’s okay not to be okay every day, Just don’t let silence take you away. Call that friend. Book that session. Cry that cry. Ask that question. (Hook) If you feeling that pressure, let it out, don’t mask it, Broken ain’t hopeless, you just gotta unmask it. We all got storms, yeah we all got scars, But a bruise don’t define who you are. Speak up, reach out, let somebody in, Healing ain’t weakness, that’s strength within. You ain’t crazy for feeling the weight, Mental health matters — it’s never too late. (Verse 3) Now I still got days when the clouds roll in, But I don’t see that as losing — I call it healing. Growth ain’t linear, relapse real, But progress measured in how you feel. I found power in saying “I need some help,” Stopped trying to fix the world by myself. Started loving the parts I hid, The anxious adult, the hurting kid. If you listening close, this song for you, For the silent fighters making it through. You surviving is proof you strong, Every breath you take mean you belong. (Outro) Let your mask Gooooooo

Unmasked At Last
