Quick note before you listen… when I say ā€œoverseas,ā€ I’m speaking metaphorically ā˜ŗļøjust meaning how far I felt from home and how much I was moving around. For this one, I shared a piece of my upbringing… the struggles, the trauma, and the healing. I just wanted to be real. If you listen to this, I hope you feel seen. You’re not alone, and there is no shame in what you’ve been through. Hold your head high. What happened to you doesn’t define you… just like I didn’t let it define me. šŸ’ŖšŸ½āœØI think this is a beautiful way for us to connect on a deeper level, even online. So if you feel led, join the challenge and say something real. I’d love to hear what you come up with, and I know Pro and BandofSorrows would too. šŸ«¶šŸ½šŸŽ¶ Love ya Muah!!!!!šŸ’‹ They said I cried… different… Like my body already knew… something wasn’t right… Born with it in my system, I ain’t choose that start Three of us in the dark, different pieces, same heart Mama lost in the streets, chasing love that was hollow I was crying through the night… she was gone by tomorrow Colicky baby, screaming, no one knew what it meant Pain sitting in my chest… before I learned to repent Foster homes, new faces, never stayed in one place Then my grandparents pulled me… tried to give me some grace Then I moved overseas, trying to find me a home Puerto Rico, new tongue, still felt so alone Every step was UNSTABLE, every door was unknown And the people that should protect me… turned me into stone I was too young to understand the weight I would hold Too young to know… some stories never get told But I carried it quiet… let it sit in my soul Till the silence got loud… and it started to show T-talk to me, don’t hold it in Let the rhythm wash away your sin Show me something real Show me something real This is where our wounds can heal T-talk to me, don’t hold it in Let the rhythm wash away your sin Show me something real Show me something real I wont judge what I will see Pretend its only you and me Show me something real Show me something rea House to house, moving quiet, trying not to be seen But that darkness kept following like a curse in between Every place that I landed… it was there in disguise Hands I didn’t understand… pain I couldn’t describe She was trying to protect me, but protecting him too So we moved… then we moved… what was I supposed to do? School slipping through my fingers, language breaking my flow Spanish heart, English world, nowhere steady to grow I was smiling on the surface, but my soul was in chains Every memory a shadow… every touch left a stain But I’m saying it now… yeah I’m breaking the code All them cycles get shattered… when you give it to God I forgave what tried to break me, I released all the weight Turned my pain into a purpose, turned my wounds into faith Now I sing what I survived… so somebody can heal If you ever felt invisible… I need you to feel T-talk to me, don’t hold it in Let the rhythm wash away your sin Show me something real Show me something real This is where our wounds can heal T-talk to me, don’t hold it in Let the rhythm wash away your sin Show me something real Show me something real I wont judge what I will see Pretend its only you and me Show me something real Show me something rea That’s why you hear me singing light… Even when I come from dark… I’m not just making songs… I’m trying to reach hearts… If I can turn my pain… into something that heals… Maybe yours don’t have to stay buried… Maybe yours can be real… T-talk to me, don’t hold it in Let the rhythm wash away your sin Show me something real Show me something real This is where our wounds can heal T-talk to me, don’t hold it in Let the rhythm wash away your sin Show me something real Show me something real I wont judge what I will see Pretend its only you and me Show me something real Show me something rea Shoutout BandofSorrows… For planting the idea… And Pro… For opening the door… This one’s mine though… This… is real.
