Arbour the Creator HOOK Every straight had a curve, yeah the road never lied, Had to learn how to breathe with the anger inside. Heart turned numb, put some walls on my chest, Now I move real calm but I'm built from the stress. Every straight had a curve, every loss made me grow, Some people had to leave just to let the truth show. I don't talk like before, I just watch how you move, 'Cause peace cost pain and I paid all my dues. VERSE 1 Every straight had a curve, kinda like my road, Thought the path was simple but the truth got showed. Used to react fast, fire living in my chest, Now I breathe through the storm, learned to handle the stress. Every lesson had pain, every scar got a name, Had to lose my balance just to build up my frame. Used to move reckless, anger ready to ignite, Now I step back calm, let the mind win the fight. Came a long way from the kid I was before, Used to slam every door, now I'm searching for more. Learned silence got power, learned patience got weight, Some people run fast but I'm learning to wait. Yeah the calm ain't weakness, it's control in disguise, When you master your storms you start seeing more skies.

VERSE 2 Yeah the scars still there, yeah the numbness is real, Built walls so high just to guard how I feel. Watch who around me, energy loud, Some smile in your face but be lost in the crowd. Had to cut some ties, had to tighten my circle, Some people bring peace, some people bring hurdles. Some talk loyalty but vanish in storms, Some stand beside you when the pressure is warm. Every straight had a curve like the lines in my past, Some roads meant to teach, not meant to last.

Now I stand in the quiet, let the past fade away… Still got walls on my heart… but I'm breathing today.
