(Instrumental intro)

Verse 1
I stare at the sky, my hope fading fast,
This broken wish feels like my last.
I've been praying, I've been screaming out,
But all I get is this goddamn doubt.

Pre-Chorus
Every night, I’m on my knees,
Begging stars, "Just hear me, please!"
For my wife, for a life that’s worth,
More than the struggles I’ve faced since birth.

Chorus
Why the hell does it take so long?
For the light to break this dark damn dawn?
I'm holding on, but I'm barely strong,
I want a better life, is that so wrong?
Why the hell does it take so long?
For these stars to sing my song?
I’m holding on, but I’m barely strong,
I need a better life, I’ve waited so damn long!

Verse 2
I'm tired of this mess, these empty dreams,
Where nothing's ever as it seems.
For my wife, for a future that’s bright,
But every day feels like a goddamn fight.

Pre-Chorus
Every night, I’m out of hope,
Grasping at stars like a worn-out rope.
For my family, for a future we deserve,
But this waiting's got me on my last nerve.

Verse 3
Every day feels like a steep uphill climb,
Counting every second, every wasted time.
But I’m still here, with dreams in my hand,
Praying for the day I can finally stand.

Bridge
I’ll keep fighting, through every damn lie,
But it’s hard as hell, under this weary sky.
But I’ll keep wishing, I’ll keep believing,
For the life we want, for the dreams I’m still achieving.

Outro
So I'll keep screaming to that distant star,
Hoping this time, it ain't too far.
For the life we want, for the family’s grace,
I’ll wait forever, but damn, it’s a hard chase.
