Yeah… Life isn’t an Instagram filter It’s ups and downs… and we learn We grow up fast, the world won’t wait Childhood dreams collide with fate We thought everything would be simple But life tests you, life makes you stronger Peel back the sheets Expose the skin A thin little slice Starts the crimson Fake smiles, broken promises Loved ones leaving without notice You learn alone how to rise again When silence hurts more than the pain A steady drip drip drip… The blood hits the floor Stitch it back together Won’t need this anymore We fall, we doubt, we bleed a little But every scar makes us stronger The night feels long when you’re alone But the sun always rises again Tighten the clamps Connect the wire A jolt to give life Godhood acquired A quiet Thump thump thump… A hollow breath… Finally conquered The curse of death That’s just reality Life shows no mercy But deep down, you can’t give up Even when everything feels broken Making a monster One piece at a time Building perfection With what I can find Bills, choices, pressure building Judging eyes with no real reason We wanna succeed, we wanna shine But sometimes we just need to breathe My new creation Awakes with a start Confused and scared But strength in his heart A violent snap snap snap… He breaks from his cage His fear fading To anger and rage Loyalty becomes so rare Friendships change over the years You learn the real kind of wealth Is the ones who stay when no one’s there We cry but still move forward Every trial shapes who we are Every pain teaches our heart That’s just reality… It shoves and swings I collapse to the ground Should have left buried The secrets I found That’s just reality We fell but we rose again Even when the world tries to hold you back Keep moving forward Making a monster One piece at a time Building perfection With what I can find Even when the sky turns gray Keep your faith through the rain Life hits hard, it’s true But your heart hits harder than it does A wet crack crack crack… As my bones break At the hands of my monster… I met my fate. Life shows no mercy We fell but we rose again Life is hard, but it teaches you Every wound makes you stronger.
