Breathe Between the Bars

I talk to the silence it talks right back I've been trapped in the echo but I fight that No chains just thoughts that bite back So I breathe between when the bars cut I don't sleep I just dream without my eyes shut Staring at the ceiling like it's giving me a lifeline Waiting on a breakthrough hoping one day I’ll be fine Every scar I got been signed with a timestamp Pain wrote my story in a voice that don't rewind back Raising a static heart full of havoc mind like a blade Turning all the pain into a weapon I have made Walking through traffic told myself go when I never knew how So I ran with the wolves just to make you proud The world don't wait for a maybe gotta break rules daily Every move they hate me still I move like fate made me Heart's heavy but I talk like fake smiles in a dog fight I spit truth till my jaw tight they don't see dark till they lost light Breathe between the bars I ain't breaking I'm becoming Running through the fire with my demons still humming Talk to my fears like friends in the night Said I'd never win now I'm too loud to hide I breathe between the bars no cell can hold me Pain tried to mold me I rose up boldly Fast life slow burn scars all earned Now I speak flames let the whole world learn Look in the mirror I see two me's one want to win One don't trust new peace voice in my headset prove it So I don't just talk I move it Broken into a room with no door Had to build one out of pieces of war Every no was a step toward more I ain't scared of the storm I was made in the core They tell me slow down but I speed up got pain in my chest I don't free up Got dreams that scream I feed em I ain't here for the calm I lead em Bleeding ambition preach premonition Bars so sharp cut through the friction I turn loss to ammunition no fear left just definition Truth in my teeth ghost on the beat Past in the trunk but it don't drive me I'm alive when it hurts still grind in the dirt I'm a king in the dark come find me Breathe between the bars I ain't breaking, I'm becoming Running through the fire with my demons still humming Talk to my fears like friends in the night Said I'd never win now I'm too loud to hide I breathe between the bars no cell can hold me Pain tried to mold me I rose up boldly Fast life slow burn scars all earned Now I speak flames let the whole world learn You don't survive the fall You learn how to fly through it The dark never ends you It just shows who you are when The light cant shine through
