W.I.P

Verse 1

Abandoned young, forced into the fray

Had to become the hustle, find my own way

Empty pockets echoed the emptiness inside

Family vanished, leaving nowhere to hide

Chorus

Craved a hand to hold, a love to define

Instead, I'm drowning in this darkness, losing my mind

They say I messed up, strayed from the light

But all this hate burning, makes everything feel like a fight

Verse 2

Scraped by, surviving on scraps and on grit

Yearning for connection, a family I won't quit

But these streets, cold steel and shadows so deep

Just a mental prison where lost children weep

Chorus

They blame the choices, the roads I explored

But the hate they ignited, it twisted, it soared

From foster care walls to the concrete unknown

Seeing happy families, a fire of my own

Bridge

Mirror reflects a stranger, eyes filled with despair

Is it my fault, or do they even care?

Fate dealt a harsh hand, a cruel, twisted game

Wishing for rewind, to rewrite my name

Verse 3

But through the struggle, a truth I ignite

Friends became the family, a beacon burning bright

Their love a compass, guiding me through the night

Though the question lingers, a war I still fight

Outro

Family, friends, where do I belong?

Tangled in this mess, feeling never strong

But I'll rise from the ashes, find my own place

This ain't the end, a new chapter, a brand new space
