When I was younger, thought the world was mine to claim, But life has taught me—each finds joy in their own way, no shame. Woke up one morning in a cold sweat, afraid, Barriers before me, nowhere to escape. Everyone said, "Don't wait, just grow up fast!" While my inner voice only whispered doubt that would last. Fears like chains kept me bound in place, I only dreamed of freedom, like revenge to embrace. From high-rise rooftops I saw hundreds of lights below, Each one a stranger's fate, dreams I'd never know... Then I decided: enough wandering in the night, Time to rise up and climb my own path to the height. My God, do you hear? Save me, you're near On this rooftop I stand Send a sign from your hand I've stopped breathing, I fear One final step, so clear Give me a sign! My foot above the fall Your stepchild hanging, lost to all A soulless beggar's call. Times of change, friends vanished into smoke, Each day a new battle, I cannot revoke. Determination like armor, light sparked in my eyes, With every step forward, I gambled my prize. At night I wrote rhymes, each syllable—a soul's cry, In words found strength to move forward, don't sigh. Dreams—my wings, pulling me to the sky, The final step over the abyss To dance or die. Cold wind on the street knocks against my window pane, But inside me burns passion like a flame. Each new day—a chance, no second try, I keep walking to find my new home by and by. My God, do you hear? Save me, you're near On this rooftop I stand Send a sign from your hand I've stopped breathing, I fear One final step, so clear Give me a sign! My foot above the fall Your stepchild hanging, lost to all A soulless beggar's call. Reached the top, but realized—this isn't the end, Each new summit—just the beginning to ascend. My God, open the gates, here I stand But God is silent, echoes whisper—not yet, understand. Stronger, wiser, past barriers and others' chains, No longer afraid of the demons in my veins. Every fall—motivation to rise once more, I didn't give up then, won't now, that's for sure. I'll fight as long as my heart beats in my chest, My dreams—my drive, won't let me fail this test. For a star in the distance shines for me again, Perhaps I can believe in love, but when? My God, do you hear? Save me, you're near On this rooftop I stand Send a sign from your hand I've stopped breathing, I fear One final step, so clear Give me a sign! My foot above the fall Your stepchild hanging, lost to all A soulless beggar's call. Silence...
