Still Standing, Self-Made

Yeah. They thought I'd break. I learned how to bend.

Raised in chaos, learned silence before words. House full of demons,

every night was a curse. Had to grow up early, no hands to

hold. Heart full of fire, soul bent and old.

Seeing love turn toxic, watch trust decay. Promises broken like every damn day.

Learned how to smile while bleeding inside. Learned how to move with nowhere

to hide. I wasn't protected, I protected myself. When nobody came, I became the

help. Bad dreams on my back, pain in my chest.
