CROSS ROADS by Soul L33k

You ever tried to heal from past trauma?

It's hard and it hurts but thats what it takes to heal.

Some people aren't willing to do what it takes to heal.

The real challenge starts at knowing what you decide to do about your pain.

You can let it break you or build you up...

Verse 1
I’m driving down this highway, with the moon as my rearview
Everything I built is burning, but I don’t know what’s true
Whispers in my head say I can’t outrun the pain
Every pill I take just draws me back into the rain

I told myself I’d change, clean up before it’s too late
But those demons keep on dancing, and they yellin' in my face
All the lights are blurring, hope’s just a crooked spark
And I feel the weight of all my dreams, like a knife right through the dark

Pre-Chorus
Can’t stay stuck in this lane, gotta make a move
One wrong turn, and I’ll never get to prove
That I can be more than the ghosts in my mind
So I shift the gears, leave the past behind

Chorus
I’ve been on this road too long, it’s time to cross that line
Switch lanes in the dead of night, and leave those ghosts behind
If I don’t change now, I’ll be lost before I fly
So I’m making that turn, at this crossroads in the night

Verse 2
My heart’s pounding like thunder, every time I close my eyes
Memories like razorblades, cutting deeper than the sky
I tasted death in my veins, felt it calling my name
But I’m done missing chances, done playing someone else’s game

I see a shadow in the mirror, someone I barely know
A broken king, a fallen soul, with nowhere left to go
But I feel something rising, like a fire in the cold
If I steer into the unknown, maybe I’ll find what I’m told

Pre-Chorus
No more staring at the wreckage, no more wasted nights
I’ll take this broken compass, and I’ll follow out the fight
The road ahead is empty, but I’ve got one last fight
So I pull that wheel, reach for something real tonight

Bridge
And when the headlights hit the curve, I feel the fear and the doubt
But I whisper to myself — this is what change is about
No more seduction of the high, no more chasing hollow light
I’m steering toward redemption, into a brand-new life

Chorus (Final)
I’ve been on this road too long, it’s time to cross that line
Switch lanes in the dead of night, and leave those ghosts behind
If I don’t change now, I’ll be lost before I fly
So I’m making that turn, at this crossroads in the night

Outro
The engine hums a promise — I won’t let this chance fade
In the darkness, I’ll find me, in the dawn, I’ll be made
