Dead End! Lyrics

Cage built of words, bars forged in doubt,

Every scream for freedom, just a muffled shout.

The clock keeps tickin', pressure on my chest,

Another restless night, ain't earned no damn rest.

They watch from the sidelines, judgin' with cold eyes,

Never see the battles fought where the real me lies.

This ain't no pity party, it's the war inside my head,

Tryna drag me under, fillin' every step with dread.

Drowning in a sea of expectations, waves crashin' high,

Rippin' me apart, this endless chase to justify.

Tangled in these currents, dragged into the deep,

Where the light can't reach, where the shadows always creep.

Gotta break the surface, claw my way back to the air,

This ain't no way to live, a prisoner to despair.

The weight of ambition, a double-edged blade,

Carves a path to glory, but leaves scars that never fade.

Sold my soul for approval, now it's hollow at the core,

All the accolades and riches, they don't matter anymore.

Underneath the surface, a fragile heart in need,

Cravin' somethin' real, a love that helps it bleed.

Trapped in this illusion, this game I have to play,

Maybe true freedom means throwin' the rules away.

Clawing at the walls, this maze inside my mind,

Every turn a dead end, the exit I can't find.

The ghosts of what I could be, a haunting symphony,

Whisperin' of potential buried beneath this debris.

This fire in my gut, it flickers but refuses to die,

There's gotta be a purpose, a reason to break free and fly.

Even in the darkest hour, a sliver of light remains,

The fight ain't over, not while this defiance still stains.

No more playing the victim, time to take control (take control)

Ignite that inner flame, make this wounded spirit whole (spirit whole)

The road ahead is twisted, ain't gonna be a breeze (no breeze)

But every step we fight for, a little more at ease (a little more at ease)

A little more at ease

No breeze

Take control, spirit whole
