Shadows of Yesterday [ [Intro – Piano + Subtle Scratches] (Subtle vinyl scratches, soft piano, atmospheric guitar) (Male Vocal – whispered, emotional) The shadows linger… I can’t escape the past… [Verse 1 – Rap Vocals (male vocal)] Lost in the echoes of what we were Every step reminds me of her The streets are empty, my heart weighs heavy I spit these rhymes, my mind is unsteady (Subtle scratches accenting lines) [Pre-Chorus – Singing + Screams (emotional)] I feel the silence, it cuts me deep Every memory, a secret I keep Through the darkness, I search for light But shadows follow, they haunt my night [Chorus – Singing + Screams + Scratches] Shadows of yesterday, I cry in the rain The tears fall down, washing away the pain The world fades, but I hold on tight Through every scar, I find my fight [Verse 2 – Rap Vocals (male vocal)] The nights are long, the thoughts collide I run through dreams where you still hide Every beat, every rhyme, a lifeline I throw I fight the silence, but it won’t let go (Subtle scratches in rhythm) [Pre-Chorus – Singing + Screams] I feel the silence, it cuts me deep Every memory, a secret I keep Through the darkness, I search for light But shadows follow, they haunt my night [Chorus – Singing + Screams + Scratches] Shadows of yesterday, I cry in the rain The tears fall down, washing away the pain The world fades, but I hold on tight Through every scar, I find my fight [Bridge – Rap + Screams + Atmospheric Guitar] Everything crumbles, I feel the fear But your memory whispers, I still hear I scream, I shout, I fight through the pain Through every shadow, your light remains [Breakdown – Piano + Scratches + Screams] Ahhh! (Scream) I can’t escape, but I face the night Every beat, every scratch, fuels my fight [Chorus Final – Singing + Screams + Subtle Scratches] Shadows of yesterday, I cry in the rain The tears fall down, washing away the pain The world fades, but I hold on tight Through every scar, I find my fight [Outro – Piano + Guitar + Scratches Fade] (Soft piano, atmospheric guitar, scratches slow down) (Male Vocal – whispered) I hold on… Through shadows… I survive… ---
