[Verse 1] Pressure in my chest, thinking what’s ahead Not just my life—it’s the path they tread Little footsteps, they follow mine What kind of world am I leaving behind? Feel that weight like it’s built this way Lines drawn tight but they look like choice Every move shaped before it’s made Still I hear something in my voice [Pre-Hook] Yeah I see the pattern, I won’t pretend But I won’t let it shape how this ends [Hook] All I want is my children safe Not growing up in a world that breaks All I want is a life that’s free Not trapped in cycles they can’t see All I want is a future clear Not built on pressure, not built on fear All I want—yeah hear me say A better world than we see today [Verse 2] System feels tight, like it holds the frame Same paths pushed, different name Rules don’t bend, they just repeat Keep you running but stuck in place Will they feel that invisible strain? That quiet push they can’t explain? Same long nights tryna work it out Same closed doors, same self-doubt I don’t want that—I draw that line Not for me—but for their time If there’s pressure trying to close them in I’ll be the force pushing back on it [Bridge] Yeah I feel it—but I won’t fold I won’t let that future be controlled Not by fear, not by design They’ll know their strength—they’ll know their mind [Hook] All I want is my children safe Not raised to bend, not raised to break All I want is a life that’s free Where they can stand and actually be All I want is a chance for them To grow up strong, not worn down then All I want—yeah simple truth A better life than what we knew [Verse 3] So I stand firm, I resist that weight Anything trying to dictate fate Not loud rage—but a steady stance Hold my ground, don’t leave it to chance Teach them truth, teach them sight Teach them how to stand up right Not just follow, not just stay But think for themselves and find their way If the world tries to pull them in I’ll show them how to push against Not with hate, not blind reaction But real strength built through action [Outro] Yeah… I see the pressure, I see the frame But I won’t pass that down the same This ends with me—I break that chain So they don’t have to feel that strain All I want—yeah let it be known Is a life where they can stand on their own
