Letter to Myself Lyrics

I see you kid starin' back in the mirror

Eyes full of pain tryna make shit clearer

Dreams like ashes blowin' in the cold

Heart too young but the weight too old

Mom's cryin' in the dark tryna hide that sound

Bill stack taller than the hope she found

Said Boy be strong but her hands still shake

Tryna stretch pennies 'til they finally break

Days go by just tryna survive

One foot in the gutter one dream left alive

Classroom silence mind full of rage

Teacher lookin' past me I'm trapped in a cage

Fuck this world fuck this pain

Still tryna heal but it's carved in my veins

Cage of memories bars of regret

Every scar's just a debt I ain't paid off yet

Ran from the past but it caught me quick

Every old wound just a new cut slick

Told myself lies Nah you don't need help

But I left that kid to rot on the shelf

But listen—nah really listen close

That voice in your chest ain't a fuckin' ghost

It's me from the fire from the storm from the wreck

You ain't a victim boy you ain't done yet

Wipe those tears let 'em fall like rain

Wash that hurt let it drown the shame

Stand up tall breathe that air

A letter to myself—fuck despair
